he’s not trying to convince you that atheism is irrational.
he’s trying to force you to accept atheism as a belief.
he’s not going to budge and accept atheism is not believing.
he’s using epistemology and ontology as a diversion to achieve a semantic victory.

“Without God, we are still empty.”
your opinion
“Everything on this earth is temporary.”
true. so what?
“God's presence and love is infinite.”
irrelevant
@ChezCharde
atheism did not "come from" anyone. not europeans, not africans nor asians.
atheism is not an idea or philosophy.
you insult africans by painting them as some sort of monolithic entity incapable of skeptical thought.
@darwintojesus
"Atheism is the belief that no God (an all knowing being) exists."
"[If no god exists] knowledge isn't possible"
you have to demonstrate a god exists before you demonstrate a god is necessary for knowledge
how do you think this argument can be seen as sound to an atheist????

- If God exists, DarwintoJesus wouldn’t use memes.

- Therefor God doesn’t exist.
I just demonstrated God doesn’t exist.

there’s nothing in atheism that directly leads to violence.
religions have texts that literally commands who’s worthy of death.
religions tell you who to kill.

the people who believe in mermaids are not forcing schools to teach mermaid-ism.
pro-mermaiders are not lobbying congress to make non-mermaid marriage illegal.
pro-mermaiders are not on a campaign to convince not believing in mermaids is deserving of hell.

and i can't respect anyone who claims atheists are people who do not wonder about universe and other existential questions.
i can't respect anyone who denigrates an entire group of people based on bad information and spreads it.

the purpose of the dialogue was to cut the BS.
the arguments for your god is bad AND you’re more interested in something comforting then something true.

you cannot take it literally because it won't make sense?
why would a god allow his followers to be so confused? Isn't it the case of life, death and eternal life to follow his word accurately?
@darwintojesus
belief that God doesn't exist is not the default position
belief that no gods exist is not the default position
atheism, however, IS the default position

"Yeah you did."
prove it
"You can’t be an atheist without believing we came from into existence just by random chance."
- believing and claiming are 2 different things
- if your stance relies on straw manning your opponent, you're probably on the wrong side of the issue

how does not playing golf help us. there’s rising homeless, more suicides, more murder, more confusion, more greed, more wars, more division.
What can not playing golf provide us to deal with these issues?
@ostrachan
not true
1 - everyone is not born believing a god exists
2 - not believing X exists is not a way to “get back” at X
3 - just because the bible says it doesn’t mean it’s true
@darwintojesus
"If an atheist tried to live consistently with the actual consequences of their absurd worldview…"
only theists who think not believing gods exist is absurd think atheists SHOULD be behaving illogically & immorally.
this is how religious cope w/ atheists being good people

@iamAtheistGirl
atheism is not a faction.
it's not a gang.
telling someone to "leave" atheism doesn't make sense. It's said however because asking someone to believe in god is asinine because epistemology doesn't work that way.
convince us a god exists. that's it.

it’s not just aimed at atheists, it’s also a subtle dig and non-christians.
they couldn’t help themselves. they had to do something to make SOMEONE unwelcome.
😐 “I’m an atheist.”
🤡 “Define atheist.”
😐 “A person who lacks belief in a god.”
🤡 “You only define it that way to not prove there is no god.”
😐 “Why do I have to prove there’s no god?”
🤡 ”Because that’s what you claimed.”
😐 “When?”
🤡 “When you said you was an atheist.”
@autocorrect2_0
this isn’t about a god
it’s about YOUR ARGUMENTS for a god
YOU are more interested in what’s comfortable than what is true
you equate belief in a god w/ hope
those are not the same things

@LibertyAnders
atheism is not chosen.
epistemology is not voluntary
atheism and theism are not gangs or factions.
you are either convinced a god exists or you are not.

false

the system was rigged against black people AND OTHER MINORITIES since this country’s founding.

wait….what.
you just posted what he definition said and then claimed it says something different AND then demanded a new word be made to describe lack of belief.

@geostylegeo
neither theism nor atheism are religions.
religions are system of worship, tenets and philosophies about life typically dealing with the supernatural.
theism is only a belief in a god
atheism is only not believing in a god
@Ini_tial
low key, atheists do not believe in a god. the attitude you are describing is anger w/ theists, religious institutions and the powerful grip they hold on politics and culture.
don't argue with me. it's a fact.

“Atheists, how can theists engage better with atheists? “
make no assumptions. ask unloaded questions to better understand them.
not all atheists are the same.
@jyothi17750159
because not all atheists believe in the non existence of a god.
that’s why.
those atheists, including myself, define the term as not believing a god exists.
SOME atheists believe god doesn’t exist…including myself.

@Josh_White513
neither theism nor atheism have any thing to do with worship.
you can believe in a god and not worship it.
you can not believe in a god and worship something else.
so....you're wrong.

@ThinkingAtheist
it's sad that you only think meaning in life can only come from a god.
i don't believe a god exists and i give my life meaning.
