wow dumb dumb n dumb ...The god particle is d reason u r u and d have mass and birds fly and everything exist u need to not just skip through ur Google search but read d content...For something so random to have a golden ratio dat affects man and his world suggests more .... Whether there is a god ...Is like asking if u have a heart or lung or kidney...U have never seen ur organs before but u know they r there...Cos u are alive... Asking if there is a god or saying there isn't is...Shows a lack of imagination....Be wise

What the heck are you even saying? If anything, the higgs boson is proof of the big bang theory...it doesn't support the god hypothesis in any way!!
The scientist that coined the name "god particle" in 1993, Leon lederman, actually wanted to call it the goddamn particle cos it was difficult to find. It's occurrence in a collision of atoms is is one in 10 billion!! Do your research and stop talking trash!!!

As for the organs in the human body, it can simply be subjected to testing to prove that they exist. What do you have to show that god exists except hearsay, wish thinking, misplaced faith and unverifiable miracles?
Your analogy doesn't hold!

As usual, you have nothing to back your belief. Just words and concepts you know nothing about.

....u and ur sources are shocking....No doctors verification...No scientific evidence other Dan believe me I say so...Did u see any references to MIT or Oxford or Caltech.... Pathetic...If u don't stand for something u will fall for anything...

Lmao.. you're asking for scientific evidence??
Are you kidding?
Is there scientific evidence that any god exists?
Is religion not purely based on "what the holy books have said"?
You're a confused person and I am here to tell you.

the question is have u seen ur heart or liver or lungs in my analogy...No answer....

Something begets something...but that first something is not god.
The burden or proof is on the believer. Don't ask me for evidence that your imagination is real. You're the one with the silly imagination..prove to me that it exists.
All you have brought into this is the god particle...and the god particle does not support the creation story...in fact, it negates it.

Lmao. But hell doesn't exist!
As I said earlier, the creator of an idea is the one to provide evidence as to his claims.
The man with the business plan is the one to convince the investor that the plan is feasible.
If you claim that your business plan is backed by spiritual forces, only a gullible individual will buy into the idea... When it fails, you can always do as religious people do...attribute it to a greater plan in the works.
Lol!

Oh lord god, when I take my next business plan to investors, do not let this bloody atheist be the one advising him or her. Please make sure the investor and the adviser are believers so that the spirits in my business plan work! Ami.

Yes you have given choice...but you haven't been objective. At the end of the day, you still trick the child into making the choice that suits you.
And No,your child isn't supposed to be an image of you.
Your child is his/her own person and should be allowed to create his/her own identity.
Ehn? My child, conceived with a dik, out of my very own toto would not be an image of me? God forbid that my child be a bastard not knowing its parent! Or are you just trying to trick me?

If I don't indoctrinate my child into an image of me, I bet you are waiting in the wings somewhere to make my child an image of yourself, you my child's image thief!

I swear to god, I will tattoo my doctrine to my child's forehead. That should make it impossible for you to fill it with yours!

that's where you get it all wrong. When u force a child to be an image of you, that child never really grows. that child wouldn't have dreams of his/her own. Religion aside, your child should have the freedom to a life of his/her own. You are there as a GUIDE and SUPPORT SYSTEM!!
Your child is not a canvas for you to draw out the plans you had for yourself... your child is not an avenue to live out your unfulfilled dreams!!!
Let your child make his/her own choices.

No, not "proper presentation", I presented it well, its just that what I'm presenting requires a level of belief to work and a Christian person might not scrutinise it as much as you sound like you might.

Why would you assume I don't understand what you're saying? Can a person not just have a different opinion to your own?

Listen you, it's my child. Are you not aware of how much stupid is out there? If I don't infect my child with my ideology, would society not infect it with their's for me? One day my child might come home and start telling me I am washed in the blood of something because I did not input a better doctrine into it! Then when I take it to the bottom of the river and bash its bastard head in (no child of mine is doing blood of anything, if I had anything to do with its conception!), I bet you would be the first to call me a child murderer!

Don't indoctrinate your child if you don't want to. Please don't make me have to bash mine's head in just because I neglected to mold it how I want mine to be! And I'm not talking force now! (Or do I have to tell you to "Read my statement again"?) I am guiding and supporting my child by inputting the doctrine I would like it to adhere to, is all. Is that really not what everyone does with their child, mold them into the image they want it to be, or at least, try to?

If your feasibility study is sound and you've done all your homework, your proposition should be able to withstand any scrutiny and not depend on religion or tribe or any other factors (except business related) to be approved.
Once you start hoping for religion to be a grounds on which your idea is accepted, that idea is most likely sub-standard and likely to fail.

So, swimming sperm is evidence that god exists?
That means, sperm is also evidence that the flying spaghetti monster exists. After all, some people believe the spaghetti fella is god.

Everybody is a believer in something. An atheist who is a non believer in God or gods believes in something else.

There is no vacuum in nature. We simply replace what we onced believed with another or a different belief. Nobody is a blank slate

That makes you a believer. You only lack belief in God or gods and lacking belief does not mean Gods or gods do not exist it simply means that this is your chosen opinion or position.

Besides if you believe in what can be proven empirically then you would be false on so many things because there are lots of things you currently believe in which cannot be proven empirically.

Also if you say you believe in humanity I would have to ask you, in what regard? As higher beings of intellect or as higher animals? Humans are inherently wicked, proud, hateful, etc so what aspect of humanity do you believe in and since the foundation for humanity in itself is flawed, what hope has humanity got within itself to change?

I'll address your 3 paragraphs.
I don't believe in the existence of gods and I strongly believe that they don't exist. There is more evidence to the non-existence of god than to his existence. (going into all that will be tedious)
The inconsistencies in the man and nature is enough proof of god's non-existence.

Please, state one thing I believe in that can't be proven empirically since you know me so well all of a sudden.

I believe in the human race. Yes, man can be evil and cruel but that's all part of the package. Man can also be kind and caring and sympathetic. also part of the package. I believe the ability of people to be moral and humane without the intervention of a supposed deity.

if you were intelligent, you'd know i'm referring to the theological version of god. and not the philosophical or scientific.
please, don't stress me.
I know the word god means different things to different people. I am talking about the god of religion. If you aren't arguing along that line, don't mention me.
