MayntheeMayn:What else can create as elaborately and in great variety than a Person? |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 3:43pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
vdestro:Bees 🐝 |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by vdestro: 3:47pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
MayntheeMayn:That is not true. The only thing they create is to make their own version of mud house, thats all. They could not even make their own clothes to cover their unclothedness, not to talk of creating equipments for work So, no goal. A Person still Wins! Try again. |

vdestro:A bee will also look at you and say this person can’t even fly, can’t create honey. 😂

KnownUnknown:does this information also apply to aliens and warmholes? |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:00pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:Why do you need to believe aliens or warmholes exist? If you can know something, why believe it? The people that called it “hypothesis” are not stupid. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:01pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
KnownUnknown:deism is not a religion. You have to understand deism before you argue against it. it doesn’t matter whether you call it deistic god or theistic god, it all depends on your imagination.atheism also is an imagination because it doesn't have evidence either for its claims that a creator cannot exist. It depends on lack of evidence which is a fallacy of appealing to ignorance. A lack of evidence for something is not absense of evidence, that's why atheism is flawed. A lack of evidence for a creator is not absence of evidence for it. Just like warmholes and aliens |

MayntheeMayn:I don't want to engage you dude. You like unending and uneducative arguments |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:05pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:The philosopher and mathematician Betrand Russell waded in on the argument. He used the example of a ‘cosmic teapot’ to illustrate his point. He said that, even though it could not be refuted, no one should believe him if he claimed, without proof, that a tiny teapot was orbiting the sun between Earth and Mars (Boncheck, 2016). In similar vein, Martin Burton, Director of Cochrane UK, wrote that an invisible unicorn had been grazing in his office and invited readers to prove him wrong |

MayntheeMayn:I agree with whatever you say, leave me alone |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:08pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:You are not making sense bro. I want you to know that the “A lack of evidence is not absesne of evidence” coined by carl sagan doesn’t mean the jargons you are saying. The actual quote by Carl Sagan appears in his book The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark and is part of a discussion of various logical fallacies (in this case, the “appeal to ignorance” fallacy): Appeal to ignorance—the claim that whatever has not been proved false must be true, and vice versa (e.g., There is no compelling evidence that UFOs are not visiting the Earth; therefore UFOs exist—and there is intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe. Or: There may be seventy kazillion other worlds, but not one is known to have the moral advancement of the Earth, so we're still central to the Universe.) This impatience with ambiguity can be criticized in the phrase: absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Using Sagan’s examples as a guide, the closest statement one could make with regard to the existence of God is that it’s fallacious to claim that a lack of any evidence that God doesn’t exist is evidence that God actually does exist. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:09pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
MayntheeMayn:okay, I agree with you |

Workch:Stop making ignorant statements. Your quote is a carl sagan statement, And if Carl Sagan said it, it must be true, right? |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:09pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:if Carl Sagan said it, it must be true, right? Carl sagan is an atheist oo ![]() |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by vdestro: 4:10pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
MayntheeMayn:I made things to fly and i even made a thing to help me fly. So i beat it over and over again ![]() The bee did not even make itself fly, that is the making of its Maker. so, no goal, A Person still Wins! You can try again! ![]() |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:11pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
vdestro:The bee is making itself fly with no help, poor humans 😂 |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by KnownUnknown: 4:11pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:No, because aliens are beings that probably exist in the universe. To them we would be the “aliens”. Given the vastness of the universe, there is nothing extraordinary about the probable existence of aliens. Wormholes are hypothetical ways to travel in the universe based on current theories of the “fabric” of spacetime. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by LordReed(m): 4:13pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:The difference being these are things that can have a clear path to procuring evidence for them, not so for a deistic god. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by vdestro: 4:31pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
MayntheeMayn:Like a man walking with no help. Still the same thing. Cut its wings and the bee cant fly but man with no wings is already flying. So, no goal. A Person still Wins. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:33pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
vdestro:😂 |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by KnownUnknown: 4:37pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:What is deism if not theism without the dogma and doctrines of religion. It’s the same old nonsensical claims that can be summarily dismissed. Workch:If you say so. Atheists are those who can’t quite dismiss the concept of gods altogether. An atheist usually holds on to the concept of god from whichever tradition he was indoctrinated into. Are there any atheists because of the god Serapis or the god Amun? I doubt it. Does anyone actually think the god Serapis or Amun exists? I doubt it. But some believe they were “past beings” I’m pretty sure you’re not “agnostic” about the god Baal Ammon. But you want to claim “agnosticism”‘about the god called………….God. Lol |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:47pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
KnownUnknown:deism is theism but not religion. Hope you dig that. All theistic beliefs are not religious in nature. Religion is an organized sect that performs repetitive rituals to a diety, in deism, no one, necessarily need to worship or revere any deity. If you say so. Atheists are those who can’t quite dismiss the concept of gods. An atheist usually holds on to the concept of god from whatever tradition he was indoctrinated into.No, an atheist is someone who doesn't see an evidence for the existence of a god/creator hence he rejects it utterly without even making attempt to find evidence against it to wait for an evidence against it. An atheist can be likened to someone who says aliens do not exist because there's no evidence that they do. Of course this person is a stupiddd person, he should have just waited for us to explore further, knowing fully well that we do not even understand anything yet. An atheist is like someone who takes a cup of water from the ocean and then concludes that fishes don't exist. An atheist does not really know how everything started, but he's concluding that nothing started it because we have no evidence for or against yet. It does not make sense. Atheist are straightforward and flawed thinkers, they cannot recognized the fact that what we don't know is way more than what we currently know. They are close minded already when we can just agree that we don't know, it's why I think it's a silly way of reasoning. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:50pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
LordReed:There's also no clear path to procuring evidence that the everything started on its own. The chances that universe started on its own and it didn't is still 50:50. So why in a haste to reach a conclusion that something which could be what deist refer as a creator started it? It chance that aliens exist is still also 50:50. Only evidence can sway this balance. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:51pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:This is actually dumb, before making a statement and claims should you not have evidence to it? |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by KnownUnknown: 4:53pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:I’ll let an atheist answer this barrage of nonsense. |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:54pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
KnownUnknown:The probability that aliens exist is 50:50 currently. The probability that something started everything is also 50:50. Only evidence can sway the balance, of you are on the other side of this balanace, you are making a conclusion out of ignorance. Atheism is as flawed as theism |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by MayntheeMayn: 4:55pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
Workch:This is why i call deist, theist sympathizers. Why are you using examples of what we already know? Why don’t an atheist think a fish can fly? Why did an atheist conclude that a fish can not fly, even though he hasn’t done research 😂 |
| Re: Atheists And Atheism by Workch: 4:56pm On Jul 26, 2023 |
KnownUnknown:lol ![]() It's fact, atheists cannot substantiate their conclusions using demonstrable evidence for or against. They are as flawed as theists. Smart people don't jump into conclusions when knowledge is insufficient. |
