Specifically the hard-core ones.
Quit trying to prove my God isn't real. We're both not even close to proving each other's beliefs.
Get out of the ED.

You can't prove whether God does or doesn't exist. That's why I'm agnostic all the way.

using namespace std; int main () { Appealing to ignorance and proving non-existence--both logical fallacies. Any who attempt to argue the existence or non-existence of any god or deity or the validity of a single faith as fact are guilty of these unless concrete, non-disputable evidence can be provided (An impossibility as faith, by definition, relies on a belief that does not rest on logic or evidence. Faith depends on irrational thought and produces intransigence.).
So, though I may be an atheist, I also classify myself as a non-theist (defined by the belief that the existence or non-existence of a higher power is largely irrelevant) and an agnostic.return 0; }

...when you're cut short of misery.

There is nothing wrong with no believing in God, but I think it's important to try to prove he does exist, or something like a higher...being.
I've got my own thing I thought of...it doesen't involve God, but something godlike. If you wanna here about it, PM me.
But all in all I agree - debates like that are pointless. mrgreen
Scraps person: love your sig...dictatorship is easier... rofl

I think they should ban 'Does God exist?' threads from Gaia. They never go anywhere. The religious people and die-hard atheists ALWAYS argue and get pissed off, and people like me just kind of float around in the middle, saying it CAN'T be proved.

Let the the theists and the atheists continue their fruitless tangents on this matter. I could care less mainly because they go after disproving the Abrahamic God.

I'm an Atheist because there's really no proof of a God. Honestly. It's natural default. You can't speculate without something happening, and there's been nothing happening to show us a God exists, if there was, I'd speculate.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
It depends on how you define beauty, or in this case, God. (Or Gods. Or Godessess. Or whatever-it-is that is claimed to do whatever-else).
(At this point, I was going to go off into a tangent about how the anthropic principle is as messy, but that might be going too far, so I'm shutting up about it).
And most of the god or no god argument that I've seen hasn't diverged much from the basic definitions provided by Abrahamic faith, or taking assumptions about points in the other side's opinions without confirming with them first. Without trying to sort out whether they're even talking in the same framework, rules and definitions, these kinds of debates are really not constructive or going anywhere... -_-
Though that's basically my two-cents about it.
I'm an agnostic-theist, and I've got my own definition of what exactly God is for me, but I can accept the fact that what works for someone doesn't always work for everyone else.
