Re: Does God exist?

1) The biblical god is one giant contradictive nightmare after the other. No perfect being can be contradictive. If a perfect being such as god can be contradictive then we must throw out our definition of what is perfect.

2) The biblical god is much younger, being of recent historical worship. This is akin to claiming that Scientology is true despite it being a recent religion.

3) Everyone of every religion on earth today claims personal proof for their magical deities. Why accept the personal proof of the biblical god over the personal proof of other gods, there's no logic in that.

4) Faith is blind belief. Faith in any god doesn't require any proof that such a god or gods exist, just the blind belief that it is true.

5) Prayer doesn't work, ask hundreds of amputees. Why would god help someone out say ... financially and not help them regrow an arm? There are many examples of people claiming they were in a financial rut and prayed to god for help and then family gave them money and in their heads it was god answering their prayers. Yet no amputee to date has ever regrown a lost limb.

6) Many natural processes were once attributed to god(s). Primitive man didn't have the technology nor education to critically think about what was going on in the world around him and so turned to stories of angery gods to explain away things like lightning and such. How the universe came to be is just the last so called mystery of man that hasn't been explained in full yet and so still remains in the mythology of magical deities.

There's many things that prove no god(s) exist once you start thinking about them. All it takes is abit of education and a look at history.
