Anyone who calls himself an atheist should be able to provide the answer to rasta's question. Atheists havent explained and solved smaller problems and they want to solve a bigger problem concerning God's existence. Lol |

Blackteeth: Anyone who calls himself an atheist should be able to provide the answer to rasta's question. You are not serious. Yeah, atheists should feed the troll called rastamouse |

buzugee: what is the definition of deism and gnostic and agnostic ? i hear these words thrown around by white men but i have never bothered to check for their deep meaning. Can you not show your racism for once in a a thread? |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by buzugee(m): 12:16am On Apr 21, 2012 |
logicboy:i aint racist |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by ea7(m): 12:32am On Apr 21, 2012 |
logicboy:i invited him. Also buzugee could you please not be racist/attach statements to a particular race. This is from my head so it may not be accurate, gnosis, greek for knowledge. Gnostic meaning one who knows, agnostic one who lacks knowledge, deism belief in a vague deity. |

ea7: i invited him.ahhhh so a bunch of self important heathens huh |

ea7: 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.Birds also have hollow bones so they aren't weighed down. Black teeth, I believe your arguments are illogical,post your thoughts below so we can discuss. |

Some atheists do have such ideas, the dynamism of Nature is admired. How I think religions have monopolized/trademark God to be an actual lifeform who preexists everything. |

You don't have to be a maniac to steer clear of the universe and let things inside it happen on their own accord. If the system is very well built and could take care of itself, why should the creator then need to intervene? The universe is a fully automated system with it's own laws built in to regulate whatever events take place in it. The word here is, AUTOMATED. BTW, i am an irreligious theist. logicboy: |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by thehomer: 10:13am On Apr 21, 2012 |
ea7: 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!!! The problem is that the deist God is of no consequence and is thus uninteresting. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by Jenwitemi(m): 10:22am On Apr 21, 2012 |
And that is how it should be. God in the background. thehomer: |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by Jack65: 10:33am On Apr 21, 2012 |
thehomer: Exactly! Also irrelivant and unnecessary if I may add. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 10:37am On Apr 21, 2012 |
logicboy: Like you never tried to answer the question. You tried and failed. Honestly I am very shocked that no atheist here have been able to answer the question. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by logicboy: 10:41am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse: lol.....failed? to answer why birds fly? Keep deluding yourself |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 10:45am On Apr 21, 2012 |
logicboy: you tried and failed miserably... |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by LogicMind: 10:47am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse: rstamouse, we all failed and bow down before you all knowing master. please enlighten us on why these animals behave in such strange incomprehensible ways. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 10:50am On Apr 21, 2012 |
Logic Mind: The only time an atheist has admitted to something in life . I will definetely tell you all but I need every atheist to behave like you just did (I don't know you to be their spokesperson ). When they all say they have given up, then I will enlighten you. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by LogicMind: 10:55am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse: you know the lord thy god has hardened their hearts that they will not seek to learn. your servant, logic mind bows before you in supplice. we hunger for knowledge. god has given you knowledge and ordered you to share. you must share or god's anger will befall you. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by ea7(m): 11:00am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse:What was wrong with my last post? |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 11:09am On Apr 21, 2012 |
Logic Mind: You really have a humble spirit . I am impressed |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 11:11am On Apr 21, 2012 |
ea7: What was wrong with my last post? Well that was not the answer, sorry! |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by ea7(m): 11:21am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse:from now on refer to op. Stay out. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by Nobody: 11:45am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse: Ignorance and hubris in overdrive. Why do y'all even bother answering the mental midget? |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by rastamouse: 11:49am On Apr 21, 2012 |
Martian: Did you just try the question? |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by LogicMind: 11:52am On Apr 21, 2012 |
rastamouse: give your answer or shut up. |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by brainpulse: 11:53am On Apr 21, 2012 |
Why cant man see beyond what his eyes could see at a particular time or else where? Why cant man control without any gadgets events happening else where or everywhere? Why cant science test, proof and trap the mind in a vessel before the man dies and put the mind in another thing or preserve it? Why cant man know in specific the events that will surround his death? What has made all our finger prints not to be the same? All this questions will make us know the reasons why we believe what we believe in with an open conscience. And there are lot of questions man will continue to ask from generation to generation forming and shaping their belief patterns. To some we will find definite answers, to some we will find speculating answers and while to some we will never find the answers. |

buzugee: why i gotta watch from the sidelines ? why i cant participate ? why are you describing yourself...you fake black wanna-be black man claiming zionist orientation |
Re: Atheism Vs Deism (vs Theism) by mkmyers45(m): 11:57am On Apr 21, 2012 |
Jenwitemi: And that is how it should be. God in the background. I somewhat want to think on this line but can you enlighten ME why an almighty god will create and go to the fore-ground? |
