Are you 100% sure there's no god? Can you call god a c _ _ t? Can you honestly do that because you know it's a fallacy? There is no middle ground on this issue. Either you're 100% sure there's no god or you believe in a god (even if it's 1%). I therefore call out all atheists to reply. Are you 100% sure?

In this thread: we school someone on the concept of "false dichotomy."
I'll add in the wiki link as well:

Enjoy your read, and get back to us once you understand what it means.
So you believe in god?
Quote from: deuce916Are you 100% sure there's no god?
Define a god and I'll tell you why I don't believe in them.
A god is that character who allegedly made everything.
The universe bears no hallmarks of being manufactured. And that is why I am 100% sure that I do not believe in your god.
So you'd call it a c _ _ t because you know you're talking to thin air?
I wouldn't be able to call it anything as it doesn't exist.
Okay, let's say from what you know about god, would you call it a c _ _ t?
From what I know about god, it doesn't exist. So why would I call it anything?
So you're 100% god doesn't exist?
As I said, "I am 100% sure that I do not believe in your god."
So you're 100% sure that no god exists?
I'm 100% sure that none of the gods that have been described to me so far exists.
So you may change your mind in the future, which means your not 100% sure.
I'm 100% sure right now. Amongst the thousands of gods that men have claimed to exist, I've not found a single one that I can believe in. So unless you've got any other gods hidden up your sleeve I think it would be safe to say that I'll be 100% sure in the future too.
Well, I still think you've got doubts. Hello anyway.
Well I know that I don't have doubts. That trumps whatever you think.
That means you're not 100% sure there is no god & never will be. You might have to work on that fear before calling yourself an atheist.
It means nothing of the sort. Try reading back through the thread.
"Well I know I have doubts". Unlike you I have no doubts. I am 100% sure there is no god & never will be.
Why do you have doubts?
Quote from: Jason78Well I know that I don't have doubts.
Maybe I need to start posting in a larger font size...
Sorry, I misread your reply.
It seems that you're here to try and reinforce a conclusion that you want to be true.
Quote"Well I know I have doubts". Unlike you I have no doubts. I am 100% sure there is no god & never will be.
Good for you.
Well god cannot be a cunt because god's don't exist. But if your god existed, then yes, he/she/it would still not be a cunt, because a cunt has some beautiful value to it.
How comes that someone with zero posts can open thread outside of the intro section? Mods, can you look into it?

c _ _ t? Coat? coot? Can't? Cert?What is this mysterious c _ _ t?
I have no reason to believe anybody's imaginary friend is real.
Your god is a cunt. The christard god is a cunt. Pedomo is a cunt. The jewish god is a cunt. Any god that man has claimed to exist is a cunt.
And until the OP can put forth TESTABLE, VERIFIABLE, and CONCRETE PROOF the OP is a cunt.
I think you have a very simplistic approach to this. There are theists and atheists who say: I don't know 100% if there is a god. But the theist will say, in spite of that, I believe in god; while the atheist will say, because there isn't enough to convince me, I don't believe in a god.
You are asking if we believe in something you yourself can't define or explain.
Quote from: deuce916"Well I know I have doubts". Unlike you I have no doubts. I am 100% sure there is no god & never will be.
Notice that this guy claims he is also an atheist. You should probably not jump to conclusions as much as you all do.

There might be some security configuring to do still. Skeletal just noticed that the members only thread can be seen by people that aren't members and you don't even have to log in right now to browse through it.
So you guys get pretty rattled when someone comes out with the truth eh. There is a god or there isn't a god. It's pretty simple logic. You can't be in both camps at the same time. Either you believe in a god or you don't believe in a god - any god. There's no room for agnosticism there.
We mostly get rattled when people show up here acting like twats. You seem too dumb to understand even very basic ideas like the difference between reality and knowledge of said reality, though.
No, I've got my facts correct thank you very much.

You're ignorant as fuck. "Agnosticism" refers to knowledge, literally meaning "I don't know". Belief or lack thereof is totally independent from knowledge. As atheists, we do not believe in a god. Some atheists also state "I know there's no god", those are called "gnostic atheists", as opposed to "agnostic atheists" who say "I don't know if a god exists, but I don't believe it does".
A final note: I don't believe you for a second when you say you're an atheist; you are clearly another theist troll spouting the same old, tired bullshit. And now fuck off, bumbag.
Why don't you understand simple logic?

We do, but you don't.

How can "I don't know" equate to knowledge?

In order:
I'm 100% sure there has been zero evidence found so far. If you have any evidence, post it right
here. Otherwise, I have been and will be otherwise agnostic to whether a any god exists. I'm also equally agnostic of the existence of the Nerve Ending Fairy and his cute sister The Tooth Fairy.
Other things I'm agnostic about.
Invisible, immaterial dragons in my garage, that you really can beat the house at blackjack, that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, leprechauns, and their severely diseases cousin leperchauns.....
All of those things, including gods, I am only about 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 percent sure of their non existence. Not quite 100%
Are you referring to the word cunt? If god exists and I had a way to talk to him or her, I would love to. I think cunt is one of the most under-used words in the english language. Seriously. It just means vagina. What is the big deal?
So you believe in a god of some sort. Let me get this, but they just haven't come up with it yet. That's a laugh.

To the OP: So if I poked you in the eye with a sharp stick, and believe me when I say I REALLY want to how could you be 100% sure it's not god telling you to shut the fuck up?
You think there's a god telling me to do things.
Trust me that I have no belief in a god, but come to my door with your bullshit and you'll sure pray you're dreaming.
Oh I see, so you're having trouble accepting the truth. You're like a boiling kettle who wants to be turned off.

There is no such thing as 100% certainty in science, and no Humanist will ever claim to have it. I can safely say that a god doesn't exist just like I can safely say that my keys will never fall up when I let go, but I will never claim 100% certainty for either.

"There is no such thing as 100% certainty in science".
That's why you have to go beyond science to see the truth.
Science isn't the answer to everything. Only on what you can see. But what about the unknown, imagine that possibility without a god.

Life doesn't need a god to support it. It does it entirely on it's own. That's incredible, so different to what we've been told.
The big bang. Ha. There's one thing about the universe that science doesn't know about. The big bang should be exposed for the myth that it is.
Why not be honest and get the real reason you're posting on this site? You're playing the same game countless others have played before you. You're not being clever, just sad.

Don't you get it - you've got to be 100% sure that there is not & will not be a god before you call yourself an atheist.
No you don't, anymore than you have to be 100% sure there IS a god to be theist.

Quote from: deuce916What's an atheist then?
Someone who disbelieves in deities, supreme beings, etc, etc.. Disbelief is the key element here. Let me ask you this, do you have to be 100% sure to believe or disbelieve?
QuoteSomeone who lacks belief in deities, supreme beings, etc, etc.
FIFY
Quote from: deuce916"There is no such thing as 100% certainty in science".
That's why you have to go beyond science to see the truth.
If you're no longer using science, then you're no longer using logic. Any other discussions with you about logic are rendered moot since you've ventured into the irrational.
I think we may have our first genuine irrational atheist.
Have fun with the forums and enjoy your stay. Although admittedly, using illogical reasoning with others who use logical reasoning probably won't win you any congeniality awards. But, what the hell. You didn't come here to make friends anyway.
To recap for anyone else reading:
Atheism and Theism translates belief in regards to deities - atheism lacks a belief and theism has a belief. Important to note that belief does not require sufficient knowledge to be present. For example, theists believe in a god even though they lack sufficient knowledge to know if a god exists.
Agnosticism and Gnosticism translates to what is knowable or known. For example an agnostic atheist would lack belief in god and lacks the certainty in their knowledge of a god not existing. Meanwhile an agnostic theist has a belief in god but admits they lack a certainty in their knowledge of a god existing. Conversely, a gnostic atheist would lack a belief in god and claim certainty in the knowledge of a god not existing, and a gnostic theist would have belief in a god and claim certainty in their knowledge of a god existing.
The OP feels that one would have to be a gnostic atheist to be a genuine atheist, even though such a position would be illogical. Since every possible definition of a deity has yet to be described, an atheist cannot logically say that they have sufficient grounds to claim there aren't any deities. The probability of a deity being real is so ridiculously low, that for daily purposes one could act as though gods don't exist at all.
Yeah I don't see this guy lasting either lol
Aitm, Plu., Jason up to you guys!
Quote from: deuce916Don't you get it - you've got to be 100% sure that there is not & will not be a god before you call yourself an atheist.
Nope. All that's required is a lack of belief in deities. An atheist is someone who is not a theist.
"Someone who disbelieves in deities, supreme beings, etc, etc.."
Exactly, that's 100%. There's no room for doubt, as the scientist will try to get you to believe.
"If you're no longer using science, then you're no longer using logic."
What's logical about saying that you can't believe or disbelieve in something 100%?
Quote from: deuce916"Someone who disbelieves in deities, supreme beings, etc, etc.."
Exactly, that's 100%. There's no room for doubt, as the scientist will try to get you to believe.
There's always room for doubt. Just because I don't believe something right now doesn't mean I can never change my mind.
If you have room for doubt about a deity then you are not an atheist.
Honestly, I don't know why you still believe in a god. Not one shred of evidence when you look at the facts.
Quote from: deuce916You obviously haven't searched for the truth in yourselves, you probably gave up.

There is no evidence of a god... There isn't evidence for the dot that exploded either... These two theories are based on belief... Whether you all like it or not... Atheism and Religion are very similar. Both believe in something that there isn't an evidence for... Evolution is a claim... So was the big bang... and of course God is a claim also.
You can tell ppl all kinds of evidences about evolution and big bang but the fact is all these claims are not scientific since in order for something to be a scientific fact it would have to be observed, repeated, tested... Therefore big bang, evolution, God... All in the same category... Religion.
