Why God does not exist, in one sentence.

[slavetopot]

I have never once seen God bail anyone out of any dicey situation. The last reported time was Moses and the parting of the Red Sea, and now the historians tell us the story of Israeli enslavement was a crock â?? implying that so was the parting of the Red Sea.

God certainly turned his back on the slaves, on the Jews in the concentration camps and on the children of Iraq.

Yet this myth persists by constant repetition that God will unfailingly come to the rescue.

There is nobody here but us chickens when it comes to rescue. We have to get ourselves out of our own scrapes. Contrary to popular opinion, religion is the last thing we need to make this a better world.

The other irresponsibility problem with religion is that it leads people to imagine that life here on earth is unimportant. What counts is the eternal hereafter. There is almost no evidence there is an eternal hereafter. Even if there were, surely looking after earth properly would be good practice for looking after heaven.

^Exactly, since I've finally come to the realization that religion is nothing but a popular form of schizophrenia, I've realized how precious life is. It's very strange, as a Christian I was always under the delusion that this life is insignificant compared to what happens after I die, but now I realize how backwards I was thinking!

I'm sure even atheists probably can't agree on what they each believe happens after we die, but for me, I pretty much figure it's the same thing we were doing before we were born, that is, not in existence anymore. It's hard to comprehend nothing, but I really don't believe we have a soul or do anything but feed worms after we die. That kind of thinking makes you appreciate life more than when you convince yourself you are going to lala land as long as you go to church once a week.

Thanks! I'm glad to say that I'm alive because of me, and only me. It was me, and me, alone, who said I shall wake up and live life, again.

I'm glad that you gave me all the credit.

[Gundari]

God does not exist because his own teachings are hypocritical and contradictory.

[benvortec]

as the saying goes: "it doesn't matter if you don't believe in God, because HE believes in you" ... and in the 'End', "every knee shall bend, every head shall bow, and know Jesus Christ is Son of the Living God " ...

haha and then everybody that didn't get baptized burns in hell for eternity! lol :smokin:

God does exist because I said so!

God is a scare tactic for a 'better' society.
