I'm just showing how atheism is a belief. :shrug: If you are so supportive of evidence based reasoning why do you refrain from backing up your own statements?
WTF? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Look at your own definition sam. Faith is Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. Some beliefs (as in my example) DO rest on logical proof or material evidence. As per my example. No. It's a certainty, since by definition, all mass posesses the property of gravitation. Yes. As far as we know. There may be CP violations that explain the absence of antimatter in the universe (i.e. why there's matter in the first place and it wasn't all self annihilated with equal amounts of antimatter). Dropping shit on my foot! What else? Repeatable, hard evidence? Are you really going to go to the philosophical bitter end with this nonsense? Sam, this really is diverting from the contention that atheism is a belief, and just what beliefs are. If you have a point, why not just make it?
Atheism is a word that means "lack of belief". I've already provided definitions to that effect. So unless you contend that antimatter is matter, or that not dying is dying, or that non-belief is belief, you'd be wise to rethink this absurd position.
Belief rests on logical proof? :roflmao: So you do believe that all planets have gravity. Is that a yes or a no? Repeatable hard evidence that relies on the infallibility of natural laws.
So what you are saying sam, is that you think we atheists are the most enlightend people you've run across on this forum? That's what you're saying, right?
I can hardly believe such exchanges are taking place. In fact, I am so befuddled by them that I try to take them seriously - because I can hardly believe this is happening. On a forum like this. From people who consider themselves "rational" and "scientific". Q, do you even want to be taken seriously?
Cultists who are so far detached believe they are actually contributing to a discussion when they are merely monologuing their hypocrisy.
I cannot perceive, hence it does not exist "lack of belief" is a misnomer. Semantically or etymologically or even by basic standards of epistemology it makes NO sense
No he does not. When he wants to be taken seriously, he does not use verbosity to hide behind. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
