Question

Atheists: Do you know for certain there is no ***?

Answer 1

When atheists say "there is no ***" it doesn't mean "I have some kind of divine knowledge of the existence of a ***" it means "due to the fact that there is no evidence of a ***, and any time of rational scientific inquiry has given no positive results to one's existence, I must conclude that **** do not exist, until further evidence arises to his existence"

Answer 2

100% sure. I have no qualms about it. Humans invented religion from the beginning of time, and have had some type of *** or ****, because they need to believe in an after life. I got over that need a long time ago.

Answer 3

That may be true but I don't claim anything except that the Creator built something into my design. It's called logic. I use it to determine that a creation has a Creator. Just like I determine that there is a watchmaker in Switzerland that made my watch even though I have never seen him.

Answer 4

Has CC blocked you yet?

Answer 5

No. I am captivated by his old arguments and his absolute faith in apologists.

Answer 6

I'm not an atheist, but I can't tell them they are wrong since there is no proof.

Answer 7

I'm not an atheist.

And to add this:

No offense though. ._.

Answer 8

Answer 9

LOL

Answer 10

Do you believe there is life besides us in the universe?

Answer 11

I am not an atheist but of course atheists know for absolute certain there is no Creator. They can't wait to tell you every single day on ******** lol.

Answer 12

I agree with Avenged7, and it would be far more unbelievable than a *** to think we were alone in this vast universe. I think there is far more evidence that some have visited us than there is that a talking snake caused the problems we face today.

Answer 13

Be careful who you agree with. Here are a couple reasons. First, the question was do you know for certain there is no ***. It is impossible for anyone to answer the question yes, even though some did. You may want to look up the word impossible. A million years from now it will still be impossible to answer yes.

Second, he doesn't have good reading comprehension. The question was about *** existing, which most people would ****** the asker of the question meant higher power or Creator of the universe, and he talked about people inventing religion. Of course people invented religion, but a Creator and religion have nothing to do with each other.

Three, again as the question was about KNOWING and you commented on a better chance which means odds or probability. With two entities that we have absolutely no physical proof of it is ignorant to say which has better odds, not to mention odds do not matter in a case of absolute certainty.

Now after all that you really dropped off the deep *** when you said there is some evidence that intelligent life has visited us. **** *** you cannot be serious. You step in here and try to promote intelligence while you demand physical proof of a Creator, yet you believe aliens have visited us from somewhere in space because you watched ufo stories on TV?

Answer 14

I didn't say I "believed" aliens visited us, I said there is more "evidence" that they "might" have than there is that a talking snake caused our problems of today!

Apparently "HE" isn't the only one with poor reading comprehension.

Answer 15

I can tell you are not a science person or a logic person. Saying that there is more evidence that they might have visited is the same as saying there is more evidence there may be a ***, or there is more evidence polar bears might be chipmunks. It means nothing. That is not to mention that it is impossible to have evidence of an event that "might" have happened. On top of that, saying there is "more evidence" of something that might have happened means there is actually evidence. WHAT EVIDENCE? Like I said in case you were not listening there is ZERO evidence of any intelligent life from somewhere else visiting us. Your dreams don't count as evidence. You watch to many sci-fi movies in your moms basement. All this shows conclusively that you believe what you want to believe based purely on emotions rather than facts. You might as well be a woman.

Answer 16

Yeah some kind of life maybe not human life, but something.

Answer 17

So can you explain, in reasonable and unretarded terms course, why you are 100% sure there is no Creator yet you believe there is some other sort of life out in space? I am just trying to understand where you developed your logic because there is zero evidence of other life and at least the Creator left us a creation as evidence.

Answer 18

I'll dismiss your insult, and explain. I believe in evolution that brought life to this planet, and that could also happen on another planet. So why would you connect possible life somewhere else to a *** or ****?? AND why do I have to prove something doesn't exist, when you believers don't have to prove why *** or **** exist???

Answer 19

Only, that is not the case. Read the responses. Even most of those who said yes, meant no.
There are very few gnostic atheists, the vast majority are agnostic on the subject.
Theists on the other hand 'claim' to know.

Answer 20

I only know there is NO evidence of it, and I see NOTHING that I can believe in, or would WANT to believe in along that line. I see MUCH evidence to the contrary, especially with "creation". I could NOT worship the Christian or Muslim "***". Both being obviously the same entity, BOTH involve Jesus, BOTH are too cruel and domineering for me to worship. It seems S/HE/IT demands we follow THE WORD, which is all screwed up, yet S/HE/IT would rather see all S/HE/IT'S "creations" DIE, and destroy S/HE/IT'S creations rather than drop in and straighten out the confusion his son (or prophet) left behind!

Nah! NOT my kind of boss. Can't work for S/HE/IT ! I need some proof, don't see ANY!

Answer 21

Well, this atheist isn't 100% sure about that, but I find it really incredible that the *** that was explained to me at the church my parents took me to (Episcopal) has not made its existence clear enough that there would be any doubt about it!

Answer 22

I do not believe in ****, that is why I am an atheist. Theism is in reference to belief.
I do not know with certainty because there is no way to disprove ****, that is why I am agnostic on the subject. Gnosticism is in reference to knowledge (a subset of belief).

Agnostic Atheist.

Answer 23

Yes - I prayed ta the Lordy Jesus one day. I asked him, "Lord! Is you real?" His answer was as clear as water used in frackin', "If'n ya have ta ask, then fergit it."

So now I knows thet he ain't out thar.

Answer 24

You are certain *** does not exist? Where is your proof?

Answer 25

Sorry I got nothin' on that one - but there's nothing to defend my viewpoint either. I prefer to believe that life on earth is heaven - and I don't need something based on a death culture to tell me what is right or wrong.

Holy Lordy Jesus! If religious people actually followed the teachings of their long dead leaders - what a whacked out world this would be. Thankfully there are some sane people defending humanity.

Answer 26

Rather than forcing him into a situation where he has to 'prove a negative,' wouldn't it be better to ask him for the basis of his certainty?

Answer 27

can you be certain your imaginary friend exists?....real proof....not some story book.....

Answer 28

You are certain *** does not exist? Where is your proof?

Answer 29

same as yours....

Answer 30

hehee...I am an ultra orthodox........ atheist !

Answer 31

Indeed! You may be right.

Answer 32

LOLOLOLOL!

******! I said I wasn't gonna participate in this poll! Now you've made me out to be a liar. :-)

Answer 33

sorry

Answer 34

And it really annoys me when these questions LACK INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS. Like "***."

Some people worship totem poles. Totem poles exist. That "***" is real. Some people worship the sun. The sun is real. There's two **** I believe in.

I dont' believe either one is intelligent and magic powerful. But they ARE REAL.

Answer 35

When these people are worshiping the totem pole they are expecting some form of return from this ***. That makes what they are worshiping no more real than any other.
How are you to chastise me for not defining ***? Ask any two believers in even the same faith and you will most likely get a different answer. Everyone who worships a *** defines it in their own mind. It is not possible for me to define this.

Answer 36

Answer 37

I don't need no steenking proof. I have faith that there is no ***.

Answer 38

Why isn't this the top answer!? Must be Divine intervention. :-)

Answer 39

Sorry you are twisting the entire question and being hypocritical at the same time. First the question was do you know for certain there is no Creator. Nobody can answer that yes. That's the point of the question, to see who is a knucklehead and who will try to present their OPINION as some undeniable fact. There is no way you can say you know for sure. It's impossible to say that.

Next you cannot deny that there is only one possible reason that you can provide for why you don't believe there is a Creator. You cannot detect him with your five senses. You cannot see or hear or touch or smell or taste him and that's why you don't believe. If he was not detectable to your five senses then he could easily be everywhere and anywhere and you wouldn't know it. Just like people for millions of years did not know molecules or atoms or bacteria existed yet they were right in front of their faces.

Finally if the fact that you have never met this Creator or seen him or heard him is your reasoning for not believing he exists, then saying you believe extraterrestrial beings exist makes you hypocritical in your stance. You have zero evidence they exist and saying they might or they probably exist is not science. It's belief and opinion. I love how almost all atheists believe in little green ...

All you are doing is replacing the Creator with something a little less threatening and something you won't be responsible to. Pyschology 101. So simple to understand the mind of an atheist. :)
