Atheism Is A Self- Contradictory And Illogical Concept by Abdulgaffar22(op):
See what the atheists must believe and accept wholeheartedly; They must believed that; 1.Nature CAN NEITHER DIE NOR LIVE, yet a creature that CAN LIVE AND DIE evolved from the same very nature. 2. Nature CAN NEITHER SLEEP NOR DREAM,yet a creature that CAN SLEEP AND DREAM evolved from the same very nature 3.Nature is BLIND, yet a creature that can SEE evolved from the same very nature. 4.Nature is DEAF yet a creature that can HEAR evolved from the same very nature. 5.Nature is DUMB, yet a creature that can TALK and SPEAK different languages evolved from the same very nature. 6.Nature is NOT a KNOWLEDGEABLE entity ,yet a creature that CAN KNOW and SEARCH for KNOWLEDGE to the extent of OBSERVING ITS OWN BRAIN in the laboratory evolved from the same very nature. 7.Nature is NOT INTELLIGENT, yet an INTELLIGENT creature evolved from the same very nature. 8.Nature is NOT SELF-AWARE, yet a creature with FULL SELF AWARENESS evolved from the same very nature. 9.Nature CANNOT THINK yet , a creature that CAN THINK logically and formulate a rational argument evolved from the same very nature. 10.Nature CANNOT MOVE VOLUNTARILY AND CONTROLLABLY yet a creature that CAN MOVE VOLUNTARILY AND CONTROLLABLY evolved from the same very nature. 11.Nature CAN NOT EXPERIENCE ANY EMOTIONAL FEELINGS, yet a creature that CAN EXPERIENCE FEELINGS LIKE LOVE, ANGER, HAPPINESS, SADNESS etc evolve from the same very nature. 12. Nature is MORALLY NEUTRAL, yet a creature that can MORALLY DISTINGUISH between RIGHT AND WRONG, GOOD AND EVIL evolved from the same very nature. 13. Nature CANNOT FOUND ANY CIVILIZATION, yet a creature CAPABLE OF FOUNDLING CIVILIZATIONS like Education, Marriage, Politics, Governments,Religion, Sports and Entertainments, etc evolved from the same very nature. 14. Nature completely LACKS THE ABILITY TO BELIEVE in any concept, yet a creature THAT CAN BELIEVE in a concept like ATHEISM, Naturalism, and Physicalism evolved from the same very nature. 15. Nature CANNOT EXAMINE AND EXPLORE ITSELF, yet a creature that CAN EXAMINE AND EXPLORE the nature to the extent of PROPOUNDING SOME NATURAL LAWS evolved from the same very nature. See what the atheists must embrace without any iota of doubt- A chain of amazing and wonderful features which are NOWHERE to be found in any part of the nature were later evolved from the SAME VERY nature as a result of ACCUMULATED RANDOM PROCESSES - an illogical and contradictory belief. Yet the same people will be blaming and laughing at the religious people for believing in God. Which one is more reasonable and logical: to believe that those amazing and wonderful features possessed by human being were deliberately created by God or to believe that these features JUST evolved due to random processes accumulated over billions of years? Since, according to the atheists, nature is a CLOSED system, a chain of amazing and wonderful features which are NOWHERE to be found in any part of the nature in the time PAST can NEVER be FOUND at this PRESENT time because NOTHING CAN GIVE TO ITSELF WHAT IT DOES NOT HAVE. Just consider our ability to SEE AND HEAR; there is no way for science to completely account for these two features without being get stuck along the way. We are told that the light and sound signals which enter our sensory systems were firstly converted into electrical impulse signals . These electrical impulse signals were then conveyed to the brain through the nerves. Even if we assume a costly assumption that the brain was able to reconvert those electrical impulse signals back to the original visual and sound perceptions, there is still need for the "inner eye" and the "inner ear" to gaze and listen to these assumed perceptions formed in the Brain. Yet there is no way to account for these "inner eye and inner ear" (which the theists depicted as soul or spirit) in a purely atheistic and material world. Furthermore, consider our ability to talk and speak in a coherent manner:1.How are we able to select an appropriate word at a particular point in time from vast number of words stored in our brain during speech production? 2.How does the brain even managed to store and retrieve those words? 3.How does the the vocal apparatus ( which consist of the tongue,lips, teeth etc) managed to be informed within the shortest period of time regarding the words selected by the brain? 4.How did vocal apparatus managed to coordinate its activities to ensure the correct pronunciation of those words? 5.How and why did present human species manage to have over 6000 languages given that a child always speak the same language he heard from his parents or relatives? 6.Are we to suppose that the first man and woman on earth were blessed with thousands of languages? 7.How are we able to switch voluntarily from one language to another during speech production? 8.How are we able to pause voluntarily during speech production? 9.How are we able to change the tone of our voice voluntarily during speech production? 10.How are we able to increase or decrease voluntarily the loudness of our voice during speech production?All these events are nothing but miracles. Any natural process can only be based on chance or follow some predetermined set of laws. Therefore, if all activities going on in our brain is purely and ultimately determined by natural process,the only instrument present in atheistic world, then the manner of our speech production will be based purely on chance or based on some predetermined set of laws. Under this condition, all the TEN events enumerated above would be absolutely impossible as they obviously not based on chance or any strict predetermined set of law: They are are purely voluntary actions based on intensional decision.

Its fallacious to dismiss someone's argument as not worthy of consideration or claim the argument is absurd without giving proof of its absurdity .

Logical fallacies = illogical thinking/response

Try again

Re: Atheism Is A Self- Contradictory And Illogical Concept by UyiIredi(m): 10:09pm On Nov 07, 2016
Atheism is not self-contradictory but it is illogical. There is strong evidence for God from the fact of the genetic code in lifeforms and the presence of consciousness esp in humans. As such, atheism ignores the evidence for God. I find it curious though that atheists expect direct evidence of spectacular miracles to occur to believe in God. And yet they don't apply such reasoning to universal common descent which can't be observed but is inferred from circumstantial evidence.

He muddled evolution and atheism and then basically just went overboard with the illogical lines of thinking.

Dude, seeing is believing.


Besides, Atheists are not asking for extradionarily spectacular miracles when you consider the great feats wrought by God in the religious texts.

We have talking donkeys, Impossibly constructed arks, A sea parting, pillars of fire, the SUN stopping for a DAY; dead people rising, the moon being split in half and all those claims.


Simple question :

You have done it before.

Deists don't make all those claims. Why don't you believe in their God ?

Deism sees God as more of an impersonal Creator.....

And I don't really think he would care about my belief/unbelief.

Because deism plays with the word "God".

They remove it and tag it with every concept you can imagine.

A deist can say "God is energy".

And we can't fault his definition.
However, he has shortchanged the word "God"

They don't really. Deism generally defines God as a Creator who made the world and left it to run. Simple as that. Your reason is a poor one.

And why is believing in that important? Who e epp?

Recall the bolded statement is just a theory based on you observation, yet it could be false.

I think the existence of a creator is an issue we shouldn't bother ourselves about...weather he exists or not does not help humanity in anyway. It's an unnecessary distraction that shouldn't stop us from exploring the world we find ourselves in.

Whether he exists or not is important to the crucial question of the origins of the universe and humanity. The satisfaction gotten from the answer to that question is of great help.
