Is There a God?

[Norstal]

I like how you associate hardcore atheism and antitheism with socialism...

I like how you pretend that the correlation doesn't exist and are just looking to argue about something.

Correlation does not equal causation and this is a forum where everyone argues...

You don't see me pointing out the correlation between your name of Fr33domland and your flag of the U.S.A. and your ignorance.

Please refer me to where you pointed this out. Excuse my ignorance, but I don't recall anything of the sort. You seem to be attempting to hijack this thread with off topic drivel and I therefore feel compelled to whine to the moderators to shut you up. Sorry, but apparently that's the way things work here.

A hijack, you say? I was pointing out a flaw in what you said, and you further pursue it for whatever reason, perhaps your dislike of being countered. But this is a forum, and we argue here.

What flaw?

This one:

There is no evidence of god hence there isn't one. However, being an atheist does not make one right about everything and theists wrong about everything. Which is a common misperception among the rabid, socialist types.

I like how you associate hardcore atheism and antitheism with socialism...

I like how you got so worked up over this simple correction.

[Zachrastan]

As a Christian, i can tell you that yes, there is a god.

No flaw, indeed.

[Tlaceceyaya]

As a Christian, i can tell you that yes, there is a god.

As a freethinker who utilizes the scientific method, I can tell you that you need to provide proof to go with positive claims.

[Zirconim]

As a Christian, i can tell you that yes, there is a god.

It would make more sense to say that you believe in god, than to say there is a god, with no backing in the statement rather than it being your ideology...

[Ceannairceach]

As a Christian, i can tell you that yes, there is a god.

As an atheist, I can tell you that maybe their isn't.

Really? No flaw? So every antitheist is a socialist and vice versa?

Considering the vast minority that is atheism and anti-theism in the world as apposed to the amount of people who identify with socialists, your claim is wrong.

As a weary Quantum Physics student, i can tell you these threads are getting tiring.

No bias detection here, nope.

And yet here you are. The soul draining is nearing completion.

Its just the American lack of understanding of what the word socialism MEANS thats kicking up this crapstorm.

[The Mizarian Empire]

I find the pills of Christianity hard to swallow for one reason, bearing in mind that while I am primarily atheist. I have no grudge against my fellow man irregardless of his/her religious/spiritual/philosophical beliefs so long as they do not spell out committing violence or genocide. With that in mind lets go on a walk shall we?

Listed below is why, if Christianity's god was truly real, his counterpart, the devil/Satan is stronger:

Because of original sin, Man will go to hell.
However God desires all men be saved.
In an effort to save man, god spends several thousand years devising a plan.
Said plan involves the birth, 33 year life and death of his only son.
HOWEVER this plan is only going to save the lucky group(s) that actually hear and believe in this.

All of this is an attempt to prevent/undo the damage done by a single conversion from Satan...and its failing.
This leads me to believe one of if both of these things: Either Satan is more powerful or more intelligent than god.

...explain. As far as I've seen, the people who misuse the term "Socialist" the most are the people that identify with it the least.

A straw man is a component of an argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position. To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by replacing it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.

Or that none of that makes any sense anyway.

Total Death toll from satan: 2
Total death toll from god >1000

Cool, you can quote Wikipedia.

Gotta point?
