A little knowledge of the History of Santa Claus can help . Santa Claus is an Americanized version of Sinterklaas which gained prominence between the 18th century and 19th century . Sinterklass himself was a historical figure with legends and folklore attached to him based on the life on Saint Nicholas . Saint Nicholas is known for his miracles, benevolence and generosity . He was born on 15 March 270 and died on 6 December 343 .

So there you go , prove that there is no God .

Lol.
U have meticulously killed him

So you agree your there is no God position is based n an assumption. So why speak with certainty? Are you conflicted? Their opinion is the hypothesis and not the reality of God. I think you need to read that your post again. The gave a hypothesis and not they saw God as a hypothesis...in a nutshell they formed an opinion based on an assumption. I have broken it down for you

Who told you that a God exist? Humans did. Did any God appear to you personally and told you that he exists?

Oga Seun, Lalasticlacla etc please help me close this thread o. Nobody gave me what I wanted. It's just more questions and arguments and more shifting of the burden of proof despite the fact that I excused those who say they have no claims.

Thanks.

So can we now compare the koran and the Bible?

Sure we can. That's if you provide objective criteria that each must satisfy so that we know that they are factual and not made up as I stated in my very first comment on this thread.

Lolz . This is how something is proven . Laconic and perspicuous .

ironically he has shown me repeatedly and spoken repeatedly and it matched scripture.

Where is your proof to your claim? You repeat he does not exist but have nothing to show for that claim besides saying you were once a Christian.

Where is your proof dalaman. The way you are dodging is making me think you are elastic in nature.

Good.
So how many fufilled prophecies can the koran put forward?
Even koran affirms that the gospel of Jesus is inspired by God.
Who affirms the koran?

And please dont dodge this one o.

NL atheists,
In order not to let this christards get away with their lousy claim that you guys can't prove god doesn't exist, I advise you guys come and do justice to this threads.
Agnostics have been on the thread for too long

I hereby summon the aforementioned atheists

EyehateGod

Lepasharon

If it was a thread about disproving the Abrahamic god, I would gladly indulge and dismantle their puerile claims but this is your battle. Don't allow these Christians seem or sound smart as they are trying to, we all know they believe in the most ridiculous things.

Big bro , you have passed this type of argument now . Abi haven't I told you about Natural Theology and Revealed Theology ?

Natural Theology is knowledge gotten from personal observation of Nature , and through this observation God has been acknowledged to exist. I downloaded an e-book based on Natural Theology .

Xenophanes needed no revelation to agree that the greatest of all cannot be born or die (eternal ) . Socrates used teleology to admit that God arranges things for a purpose . All these are personal observations of Nature .

Then you move to panentheism which sees the universe as the material manifestation of God . That means even if the universe is eternal , it is part of God as His essence .

Remember I said I want objective and incontrovertible points.

The Koran we are told has some fulfilled prophecies.
Re: Why Do Atheists Shift The Burden Of Proof? by damogul: 4:24pm On Dec 17, 2016
The fact of this thread is this...Atheists believe in nature and they hold strongly to that which is why they want physical proof of Gods existence from theists.

Now we want them to use the same Nature to disprove God. I am sure that something so readily available as nature could easily be used to disprove God but all we have been seeing has been seriously disappointing to say the least.

Dalaman where is your proof aka evidence empirically given that God does not exist.

Felixomor I have asked you to stop engaging him till his proof is given.

You beat me to this comment bro . I wanted them to use Nature to disprove God . But they know they are going to fail woefully if they use Nature ,so they keep making irrational and circumlocutory comments .

Bro you are playing football with different balls. When told to provide evidence for the existence of God you can not jump from theism to pantheism and then to diesm. All these are not the same and do not even speak of the same idea of God. As a Christain when ask to provide evidence for God all you are to do is provide evidence for the christian God. Once you bring diesm ad pantheism into the mix then you are no longer talking about the Christian God but some other versions and ideas of God which are totally different from the Christian God.

You do realize that there is a massive difference between Religious Skepticism and Atheism . And that religious skepticism has nothing to do with the existence of God . I hope you do realize that . Don't waste our time bro , where is proof the Supreme Being does not exist ?

What part of nature told you that it was created by Yahweh? Where is his signature in nature so that any body that see it will know that he created it? Where is the God that exist without human input? When will you show it to us?

We say all Gods are man made ideas and as such can not be shown to exist on their own without human input. If you know a God that can be shown to exist without human input point to it.

I never said no supreme being exists

If you do one thing for me I will enter the argument.
Just define the supreme being or god. The word is very vague. If you can just define it then I can't enter
