Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by ea7(m): 5:45pm On Apr 20, 2012
Let's discuss atheism vs deism. Merits and logic of both sides . If some theists would like to chip in their own two cents, they are free, however buzugee, rastamouse and snthesis(for a different reason than the other two) can watch from the sidelines. If Davidylan wants to join in, he'd better be civil. Okay 3,2,1, let the games begin!!!

Here is my problem with deism; What kind of maniac creates a universe and then refuses to interfere with it? However, I will always prefer a deist to a thiest since I'm an atheist.

Deists always give good debates

We should forget about the moral aspects of that, since it does no injury to his existence.

Why is God necessary?

Why does he have the right attributes?

Is he the aggregate of all that exists?

@logicdude the deist god for all you know might have died upon creating the universe, any way, I'm waiting for deepsight.

Now you are talking. Its better you say God died after creating the universe than those senseless things you were vomiting about creation happening by chance from nothing.
To answer your statement, A CAR WILL NOT DRIVE ITSELF WHEN THE DRIVER FALLS ASLEEP.
I believe the matter that forms everything is powered by something. If that power ( God ) goes off, everything will crumble.

Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by Blackteeth(m): 6:38pm On Apr 20, 2012
Well, I think at this point I would say God is matter. Matter assembled to build everything via evolution or whatever process. As we are seeing matter, we are seeing God as well. God exists!

Then your God is inanimate, given the basic definition of matter.

i can see why their minds will be getting blown. here they are, all their lives, they have been listening to 'pastor tithe' and 'reverend offerings' ignore most of the bible and hone in on the parts of the bible that serve his own purpose MALACHI 3 VS 10. then when a p-i-m-p like me comes in and gives them the real deal, they have to resort to drinking cider grin to keep their minds from being blown to smithereens grin grin

God is the most qualified entity to define matter because scientists define matter based on how much they know about matter. Scientists dont know sh.it about matter execpt what they can detect. I dont need scientists to define matter for me. Ok?

Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by ea7(m): 9:15pm On Apr 20, 2012
As we all presumably know, deists believe in a non interventionist God. We have no evidence for him. I would like deepsight and/or blackteeth to make a case for god belief.
I think atheism, deism and agnosticism are the same in a way. God is irrelevant in all. Atheism and agnosticism are the same.no question.

I've been pondering too! Why does the Octopus have 8 arms? Why is the Giraffe's neck that long? Why does the kangaroo have two separate and specialized teats?

The simplest answer is because they can, it just is. The more complex one is fish ave gills for underwater breathing, and slime on their scales to move through water. Birds have wings.

Rastamouse has come to troll and derail again.

Seriously, no answer will be satisfactory for rastamouse questions. It's a trick just for him to get an excuse to say "fail"


BTW......Rastas have their own religon different from Christianity....Haile Selassie! Why a christian would call himself "Rastamouse" wonders me.
