The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Atheism. by vedaxcool(m): 10:48am On Oct 01, 2012
Like logicboy's equivalent, you would notice that the Pink Unicorn argument can be used in unraveling atheism.


A man wakes up one day to meet a Pink unicorn (professionally done by logicboy grin) standing in front of his house, well the following are some of the first thoughts that strikes the man's thought who happens to be an atheist:

1) He is likely to believe that some made the unicorn and place in front of his house rather than assume the Unicorn evolved or magically appeared.

Now the two contending positions are:

1) Someone did make the Unicorn (professionally done by logicboy)

2) The Unicorn appeared by itself without any maker.

Second scenario
To compound the matter though logicboy the maker stood by the unicorn when the man involved woke up, the man asked logicboy who placed it there? Logicboy tries to play a fast one the man and then say, the unicorn appeared out of thin air and hence drew the his attention to it. Well the man says this hogwash, I don't believe you, someone must have made it and move it here. Logicboy but as an atheist you are no stranger to believe that something could come from nothing? So why argue to the contrary? Well it does just make sense, The man insisted.

Nice one ! Its unfortunate that logicboy in his usual style will beat around the bush with this one. Say for example he might say that atheists don't believe that something comes from nothing.

Proffesionally done? wtf does that mean? Do you mean created? Or do you mean a horse made to look like a unicorn?
Some made? Someone or something made, is that what you mean?
And why in the world should he dismiss evolution, or genetic mutations (though not likely, as too much of a radical change)?

For no 1 you mean to say the unicorn is a hoax? Ok assumption, but could have found worse ways to present this?
For 2, appeared without a maker You do realize that in this universe, there are some physical laws that cannot be disobeyed?
And what the hell happened to evolution?

Hence drew what clusterf*** of an attention?
That's as far as I can go. The rest is just...
In essence, WTF are you trying to say?

Note, atheists do not contend to know what first cause is. Most of us just contend that NOBODY KNOWS. For you to make some silly assumptions, that could be used either ways, are illogical, unverifiable etc, and claim them to be some sort of truths borders on lunacy.

You remind me of the capitalist muslims in America! They say that capitalism and the west are immoral but they can not get enough of the freedom of religion they are getting....they can not get enough capitalist products like 50inch TVs......they can not get enough of hollywood movies.....and so they are left with a never ending internal struggle.

Vedaxcool likes my posts. He keeps attacking me but deep down, he respects my intelligence. He can get enough of my anit-religious/islamic posts. He loves particpating in the argument.

And I'm sick and tired of atheists as yourself pretending that their position doesn't require them to believe that either the universe sprang out of nothing or it always existed. Saying that they don't know is a cheap cop-out to prevent investigation into this all important matter of where the universe came from.

Uyi Retardia,


Nobody knows what is beyond the big bang. Not even scientists. However, you christians claim to know (Yaweh) which is a lie.


There is no atheist position on the beginning of the universe. Atheism is only about the exustence of God and the lack of evidence for it.


The sooner you realise that using the "nothing from nothing" argument is a strawman, the better for you. Furthermore, yu are the one that believes in something from nothing. Tell me, does your god have a beginning? What? He came from nothing? shocked

MacDunce01 There are 2 major atheist positions on the beginning of the universe. One is that it has no beginning (i.e it is eternal). The second is that the universe came from nothing. Saying you don't know is intellectually sloppy since it is one's duty to know. That's what science is all about - knowledge. With what has being said your claim of the nothing from nothing argument being a strawman falls flat. BTW, God is believed to be eternal. The concept of time is meaningless to anything that is eternal.

There are no atheist positions on the beginning of the universe. Are you a retardeen or something? You are using a strawman atheist position.

Eternal is an infinite. Infinity does not exist.

Permit me to use the skeptic theory to define your response. Mr Anony was right after all.

An irrational skeptic will continue to deny even when he no longer has any reason to. His argument is usually in the form of:

When X has been proven to not be absurd, his argument becomes...

MacDaddy01: Eternal is an infinite. Infinity does not exist.
"I find X absurd therefore it is absurd."

You didn't even bother to ask questions about the theory presented by uyi iredia, instead, you set your mind to deny it from the onset...irrational skepticism

Wow, you people are real sheep!


Someone throws a strawman and I am the irrational skeptic?

This is what religion is at most times; the blind leading the blind. Keep following Anony's failed ad hominem towards atheists.


The irony of it all is that a christian can not be a rational skeptic. Guess Anony did not tell you that one. Faith and skepticism are quite opposites

Btw. Infinity does not exist and therefore, eternity does not exist. Ignoramus.


Go back to logic and reasoning 101.

If X does not exist, a subset of X can not exist.

X= infinity. Subset of X=eternity.

The only thing an atheist has to do is simply disagree with the theist on the fundamental subject of discussion: God. An alternate cosmological model is a further point at disagreement.

the compound fool said I don't know is the basis of what he follows (he definitely is a disgrace to the community of scientist), yet we don't know what evidence he looked at to conclude that God does not exist having actually know nothing. The compound fool again believes in evolution yet till date it has never been demonstrated in real time for him to observe, the compound fool of compound proportions is still deceiving himself that in his fooleric dreams he has somehow address the issues raised in the thread.
