    You can't, so he must!

    Wrong.

    A person does not "believe something doesn't exist." A person doesn't believe something exist. Big difference.

    Oh, and why is my atheism towards your particular god any more egregious an offense than your atheism towards the million gods you don't believe in?

    Thank you so much. I hope the public is as enjoying as I am. As I said, Atheists believe that I ever said that not believing in something IS a belief. And they insist on their belief like true fanatics.

    I don't know how I can put it in other words.
    But let us people try.
    I never said or wrote that not believing in something IS a belief.
    Nothing even close to it.
    But on almost 3 pages and for almost a half of the day atheists demonstrate that they believe I did.
    And I have not been able to break through this blind fanatical belief.
    Atheist are always in a need of creating a blind fanatical believe out of the blue, out of nothing.
    I was raised as an atheist among atheists.
    It was long time ago.
    I cannot remember a single mentally deranged atheist around me.
    Is it because there was no Internet at my time of my atheism?

    You're an atheist towards Zeus.

    Please do not try to switch. Do you still believe that I ever said that not believing in something IS a belief?

    Which is false because it is fact not belief

    Sure. Anything an atheist believes in is a fact.

    If the only thing you consider is the possibility that something no one has
    What is a God?

    If I were worshiping ignorance...I'd be worshiping you...which I most assuredly am not doing.

    Atheists like you think that people who do not join in your blind guesses...have to be theists.

    Silly you.

    In any case, some atheists do assert there are no gods...or that it is more likely that there are no gods than that there is at least one.

    Both are just blind guesses.

    Neither have I.

    BUT I HAVE MET MANY ATHEISTS WHO ASSERT THERE ARE NO GODS...despite the lack of evidence that there are none.

    The blindly guess on the question...just like theists...except in the opposite direction.



    The many who claim no gods exist...certainly do.


    If a person asserts "there are no gods" or "it is more likely that there are no gods than that there are"...it is perfectly logical to ask that person to bear the burden of proof for those assertions.

    I know...I know. You atheists don't like it when the table is turned.

    Tough!

    If this thing we humans call "the universe" is a creation (it may be; it may not be)...but if it is a creation...whatever created it is a god.

    What most athiests assert is there is no evidence for the existance of a god. And that of course is true. What theists assert is there is a god and the burden of proof is on them to prove it if they are unwilling to admit that the only evidence for a god is their own faith.

    There is no question that Jesus exists. In fact he did some carpentry work on my house last year..

    You have to laugh at people that pretend to be agnostic but, post exactly like a theist. Wouldn't be the first religion derived from ignorance and probably won't be the last.

    Yeah, I had to fire him though, kept hammering nails through his hands and getting cross. The language was terrible as well.

    MANY people who use "atheist" as a descriptor do assert there is no evidence for the existence of a god.

    I agree.

    MANY people who use "atheist" as a descriptor go a bit further...and assert there are no gods...or that it is more likely that there are no gods than that there is at least one.

    The people in that latter group, which I suspect is more sizable than you think, are expressing "beliefs" or guesses about the issue...just like theists except in the opposite direction.




    Most theists I know or know about...express a "belief". The "belief" in my opinion...is a guess.

    I agree.

    The people asserting there is a god...bear a burden of proof.

    The people asserting there are no gods...bear a burden of proof.

    The people asserting it is more likely that there is a god than that there are none...bear a burden of proof.

    The people asserting it is more likely that there are no gods than that there is at least one...bear a burden of proof.

    So we are in agreement...

    ...right?

    One has to laugh at people who think saying, "I do not know if gods exist or not"...are posting exactly like a theist.

    And one has to laugh at some of the supposed atheists in this forum who think that there is something wrong with acknowledging a lack of knowledge about something that may well be unknowable.

    All you have to do is find an atheist on the forum who thinks what you want him to think, then you can debate with him, but so far all you have done is hijacked a thread with what you think some atheists believe. It really is amusing you looking around for an atheist who thinks the way you want them to!

    Are there any other possible definitions of God?

    I have not hijacked any thread. I took exception to something you said...and gave my reasons for it.

    In the meantime I gave you a link to someone here in this thread that does exactly what I said...and I have you a link to a thread where four others did.

    So...why are you pretending otherwise?

    I imagine there are all sorts of other possible definitions of god.

    I gave one.
