But there is something like an 8 year old theist abi?
Do you know why there is an age of consent?

It's from research and experience that you're not matured enough to make certain independent and informed decisions until a certain age.

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours - Stephen Roberts
My dear this is simply moronic..

Bringing up Stephen Roberts quote here proves he's the m o r o n of morons like you. Yes just like he believes, I believe there's a KING of kings and LORD of lords, but the denotation of atheism isn't about you not believing in my own supreme God because there are different others you believe in, atheism is a belief that there is no God or gods, it is an outright denial of any devine being in existence. So saying that you are an atheist and believes in satan connotes to being a stupidly confused person. Get it?!

Yes the difference is it is only in your mind and the minds of other believers, it has no objective manifestation. The sun has objective manifestation.

You left out a third individual which is central to this argument. Let me add it below (bold).

... either something is wrong with that method or with the individuals since they cannot agree on what they are experiencing. Or with a 3rd set of individuals who are not experiencing the God, since others are experiencing him but they dont.


LordReed
Five men who watch an event pass by, will give five different accounts of it, no matter how close their explanation are, their experiences will differ and will reflect in their explanations.

Now imagine a sixth man, who chooses to close his eyes to the passing event. He will have no experience to share, nor even know such events ever happened. Mostly even argue about its existence, asking for objective evidence.

This is the plight of an atheist.

You don't know what you are saying. Many atheists including myself used to be christians. Religion is faith based and faith simply means belief in what lacks evidence. Your analogy is therefore faulty.

Yet you think you are wise to know about your own creator. Are you freaking kidding me?

Sis, don't celebrate this. It's still day. Most of those likes are from those I call untrained psychologist who camouflage as atheist. Those are people we have here. They are neither here or there. Move with the weather. Living a loud mouthed life but no conviction. Time is the test of such. Time breaks them, and instead for them to face it and brace up they find the next level, the next in-vogue.

We have seen them come (with their likes/share) and go in this same forum. Only that their unannounced going is usually to change account or become special guest viewers. grin

So, lots didn't loose their belief as you posit, they only get confused under life pressures and needed a cover to voice the confusion. NL is the cover, atheism is the slogan.

If you don't console yourself then who will. Whatever makes you sleep at night. Atheism is bigger than you. Atheists refuse to accept the garbage you accept. Somewhere in Jeremiah God supposedly said " before you were formed in your mother's womb I knew you....." Think about that.

It's not enough to assert without proof. That's the problem I have with theists. Proof, my dear, proof. Teach your son to always prove his assertions.

Think about this.
There is something called intent. There is something called purpose.
Now think about pineapple.
It's sweet right?
What made it sweet? Why is it sweet? It also has nutrients. Why does it have nutrients.
I am using pineapple to illustrate why something exist.
Pineapple is sweet for a reason. It has a purpose.
Anything that has a purpose shows intent.
Anything that has a purpose cannot create itself. It means it was created with by an intelligent being.
That intelligent being is God.
If not, tell me why pineapple is sweet and why.

According to Oxford scientists, who claims God doesn't exist..... humans have barely explored 2% of the world's constituents... So humans are yet to discover about 98% of the earth constitutents... So God can't fit into the 98%? You don't know a whole 98% of jxt the earth, talk more of other planetory bodies and the solar system in general and you said God doesn't exist? How were you able to come to the conclusion when billions of people believe in his existence? Probably those billions of people are jxt hallucinating right?

You are spot on about your take on the issue. We think and fantasise about a lot of things that does not exist.
However, the proof of Gods existence is huge and profound. Think about the minute complexities and intricacies in nature and the intelligence and compassion animals exhibit and a rational mind will come to conclusion that these things couldn't have come by chance.

The answer is, we never know. Maybe it is aliens in other universe that is experimenting in our universe. The intellectually honest answer is "we don't know" how these overwhelming complexities came to be. Figuring out one and being overly stiff about it is being disingenuous.

You are spoiling that boy's psychological well being. You might not know now but the future of that boy will tell.
To be honest, you both are ignorant about God existence and you are polluting that boy's knowledge because this is not the time for him to focus on this type of things.
You People think you know God but you don't know even what God truely means and you can never know because you humans we are of the flesh.So you think the little you know is the ultimate Knowledge about God which is wrong.

Lies like this from the pit of hell should not be listened to. This is why every Christian child out there must be equipped to handle these objections to their faith from an early age.

The Atheist can pollute their children's mind but the Christian can't "pollute" their own child's mind and guide them alright. What nonsense!!!

No,but they believe in God only because the idea of God is natural.

The idea of God is in you,and you like every other atheists,will always be restless to disprove the existence of God.

Every theist does not disturb themselves to prove the existence of God because they are among the proofs.

Bro,faculty reason is like every other faculties,they have their limits;our eyes can not see those organisms floating in the air,our ear cannot detect that ants make 'noise' and sense of reason is not different.

If Scientists have not seen the 'smallest thing ever', what about the greatest Being? The answer is simple,their sophisticated equipments is f by far,like a drop of water to an ocean, incapable.

Yet we have no other alternative than the science method. The old methods are nothing more than speculations and make-believe.

Car, airplane, cellphone, modern medicine, just list them yourself. They are all science methods, solving the most difficult problems.

Many JW Kids in the West are already waking up from the lies of this organization. I could go on to mention many celebrities like Prince, Michael Jackson who were trained with JW background but ended up doing more for Satan. You see I see no difference between the JW organization and Atheism. The organization breeds her adherents for that position. Most jws who discover the organizational lies and leave the org usually end up that is 80% of them as Atheists and you begin to wonder with all that Jehovah indoctrination from childhood. They mostly head into Atheism.

Quite interesting you have the Bible cover to cover. Just wondering what informed you to neglect your commitment to it if you have truly read it well.
The truth is if you want to be open minded when reading the Bible you will end up like me. It is what actually inspired this my quote. "In searching for the truth, you will find something more" my problem start while reading the Bible I fell in love with the history of man. my first copy was the history of the civilization of man. It explore the movement of man's civilization from ancient times, on further studies I discovered the bible was part history part oral tradition past down from mesopotamia tradition that is actually were they originated from.
