Evidence for God from Science

The following questions are irrelevant to those who believe that the masturbation itself is sinful, but allow me to pose them anyway. 1) What if the fantasies behind the masturbation do not involve real people ? i.e.; You imagine character(s) from an anime in sexual situations with you? 2) For that...

Ex-Catholic here.. you shouldn't do that. :s

So, the atheist assumes that God is indifferent if suffering is allowed to happen. The reality is that the atheist is indifferent, and hypocritical. In a material worldview, nothing is objectively right or wrong, good or evil, not even intentionally starving children or torturing puppies for pleasu...

Makes no sense. If they believe there is no God and therefore baptism is just getting wet, then there's no reason to symbolically do anything. By instituting their own ritual to reverse the former, they are recognizing its legitimacy to begin with. This type of atheism appears to me to be less abou...

I'm not trying to preclude god from this equation just to say that god's interference You seem to be smart and you write well but you keep on making the same mistrake over and over again. When you refer to God - the Christian/Jewish deity - God takes a capital G . If you are refering to a god, it t...

In defense of atheists, I only ask that you try not to judge - only through patience and discussion can we get along. :] Much as atheists must not judge theists on the actions of the hateful (Westboro, for instance) theists, please don't categorize all atheists as hateful either. I myself am what ma...

Either God has the power to stop it and doesnt, thereby allowing it to occur or he doesnt have the power to stop it. Are you saying God doesnt have the power to stop it. Or are you saying that God is fine with children starving to death if we dont do anything about it (which is the same thing as al...

However (this is where I ask questions based on answers others have given), then what are the odds of Silvertusk saying the phrase, "wow, I like a cheese sandwich with garlic and pickles" when he is exactly 39 1/2 days until his 31st birthday (down to the second). Very interesting point -...

Beany, Its not an argument from ignorance, its an argument from experience . We have never seen a language (code) arise by chance, and the odds shown below make it rediculous to even suppose of a way to even bring it about without an intelligent mind being involved. The odds of abiogenesis are almo...

Sorry to jump in late, but I'd like to critique this part of the page: Homosexuality and Darwinism I am not a huge fan of Neo Darwinian evolution. Nevertheless, there is some clear evidence that natural selection (and sexual selection) does act upon populations and has acted on our own species to pr...

Fellow computer scientist here as well, hello! :] Hello Phi, I agree with silvertusk. What that article is proposing isn't information. Perry Marshall has a great site on this specific topic. In fact he took right into the mouth of the lion, when went on the biggest atheist forum and challenged them...

If you get some time, you might want to check out the Home Site, if you haven't already. Most of the answers, to the questions that newcomers to the site have, can be found there.

Can you provide me with a URL? I'm not sure I know where you are referring to. Thanks. :]

Hi. Sorry to jump in this topic, but it seems to have derailed somewhat. I hope to bring some centering to this subject. I'll preface this with the fact that I am a bisexual citizen in the United States who is very much in favor of equal rights to marry. I will lay out my case below. To start, I wou...

Welcome to the site, Beanybag. :wave: May I ask how you found this site? I can tell you exactly how I found it, it's a little funny. I was feeling frustrated at the overwhelmingly atheist population on the internet after looking at some article on Time (which apparently has a liberal fanbase, but m...

Hi there. I'll preface this with the warning that I am an atheist but I come bearing no ill will or intent to persuade any of you to atheism, honest! I was looking for a forum with more intellectual theists and craving philosophical discussion. I just want to get a different perspective on things an...
