On your planet? Probably not, Sybil,

I am not you, Sybil.

but on Earth there are: https://www.learnreligions.com/definition-of-militant-atheist-247865

There is no such thing as a 'militant atheist'.

Now you're just babbling again, son. Take a deep breath, let it out slowly and try to post like a rational adult. TIA.

Inversion fallacy.

 

[Into the Night]

Great, an atheist who wants to introduce mystical, paranormal, transcendental, existential concepts into physics and cosmology classes.

No thanks. I want my physics & astronomy science classes presented to me on the basis of matter, energy, and spacetime.

Cosmology is not a branch of science. It is a religion. Cosmology is not physics.
He is not introducing anything mystical, paranormal, or transcendental. He exists.

When I was a teenage atheist is was mainly a renunciation of the Bible compared to scientific fact. Being young, I didn't get further past that concept; the conflict between those claiming the Earth was only 6000 years old vs. the scientific knowledge of the Big Bang, age of the Earth, dinosaurs, etc.

Agreed on religious extremists, and I include militant atheists in this, since they are pushing a belief system without evidence of that belief being true. They are two sides of the same illogical coin.

You are not an atheist, Sybil.
The age of Earth is unknown.
The Theory of the Big Bang is not a theory of science. It's a religion.
There is no such thing as a 'militant atheist'. An atheist has no religion to push.
Fallacy fallacy.

 

[Into the Night]

The leap of logic I eventually made is that scientific theory doesn't do anything to disprove god, the universal spirit, the Tao, or the eternal logos. They might just be evidence of it.

Some of the most brilliant minds in scientific history were convinced that lawful order in nature pointed to a law-giver.

No theory of science is evidence of a god or gods. Science is completely atheistic.
The Universe is unorganized.

 

[Into the Night]

Agreed. All science has done is disprove ancient perceptions of God, the Universe and Everything Else.

Science has no theory that disproves the existence of any god or gods. Science is completely atheistic.

those aren't slavery dumbfuck.

Yes they are.

you british isralites and messianic judaizers need to keep your demented thoughts off everyone's morality.

I am not British. I am not from Israel. I am not Jewish. You don't get to declare everyone's morality. You only get to declare your own. Omnscience fallacy.

"The type of slavery that existed in the US" (slavery is still present in the USA btw) is not the only type of slavery.

And slaves don't HAVE to be mistreated, you know. They COULD be treated properly instead.

Defending slavery.....nice.

 

[Ichabod Stain]

Yes they are.

I am not British. I am not from Israel. I am not Jewish. You don't get to declare everyone's morality. You only get to declare your own. Omnscience fallacy.

no they aren't.

prison isn;t slavery.

you;re an anarcho communist privatizer.

 

[Into the Night]

Right, the 6000 year old Earth is not taught in any church I've ever been to, and more importantly the age of the earth is not a requirement to be Christian.

The age of the Earth is unknown. You are correct that the age of the Earth has nothing to do with Christianity.

Now the Bible thumpers like IBDmann who want to introduce the mystical and the existential into physics and astronomy classes are something to be on guard against!

IBDaMann is an atheist. He doesn't thump any Bible.

 

[Into the Night]

Right. That’s what I said. "God's" rules, laws and behavior were unacceptable in Jesus' time. So, why would an all-knowing, perfect God endorse clearly immoral behavior.

Again, why would God endorse clearly immoral behavior while not clearly condemning other immoral behavior like slavery and child abuse?

RQAA. Void argument fallacy.

 

[Into the Night]

Because it shows a pattern of behavior that has spanned time. Man is notorious for explaining things that confuse/scare him with God's, demons and other supernatural beings.

It's not a blind guess when I can show a pattern and tendencies.

You haven't shown anything.

 

[gfm7175]

Why are you so intent on making shit up?

Because the truth swiftly brings down his foundation of sand.

 

[Into the Night]

Jesus had some modifications.

the golden rule is now the whole of the law.

No, it isn't.

the golden rule rules out slavery and abuse.

No, it doesn't rule out slavery. Presentism fallacy. Slavery is not necessarily abuse.

are you gonna make the "what if i'm a masochist" piece of genius argument?

No, I'm going to tell you once again to go learn English.

 

[gfm7175]

Not my fault you don't know the Bible.

Stop blaming others for your own faults.

 

[ZenMode]

Please list the book, chapter, and verse(s) in which "God endorsed all kinds of [immoral] behavior" is "clearly state[d]". I want to see this for myself.

Lol...why, so you can ignore it or make excuses for it? You already rationalized God killing innocent children on Passover. There's absolutely no reason to believe you'll be any more reasonable with other examples.

 

[gfm7175]

Defending slavery.....nice.

...

 

[Ichabod Stain]

No, it isn't.

Jesus said it is.

No, it doesn't rule out slavery. Presentism fallacy. Slavery is not necessarily abuse.

the golden rule rules out slavery. do you want to be enslaved?

I love jizz so much.

ewww.

 

[Into the Night]

I'll try again....

30% of the 10 Commandments are God talking about himself while ignoring obviously immoral behavior- child abuse and slavery. So I, a mere mortal, am saying to combine the three about God into one and add two new ones related to child abuse and slavery.

Where does God condone child abuse? Nothing in the gospel is immoral.

You still have not answered my questions. Stop evading.

Why is it that I, in a matter of seconds, can write a more moral 10 Commandments than the all-knowing creator of the universe, who is claimed to be the objective moral compass for all mankind?

You didn't.

Nevermind that God endorses killing your kids for back-talking and killed all of the first born children, an event, Passover, celebrated/recognized in today's Christian churches.

Stop making shit up.

 

[ZenMode]

You haven't shown anything.

Nothing....I mean nothing I could show you would matter. You are 100% brainwashed.

 

[Into the Night]

The fundies are annoying!

And by that I mean both fundamentalist Christians and fundamentalist atheists!

There is no such thing as a 'fundamentalist atheist'.
