>the atheist will see the world teeming with beauty, and it will not move his cold heart.
>he will not thank his creator, the most merciful

How do you justify this?
>>
An atheist is someone who hates his creator.

>creature that spends all dear torturing and murdering smaller creatures for fun, licks its own asshole and gives its owner brain parasites to not notice the smell of its shit everywhere
Truly a wonder of The Lord Almighty.

They justify it by defining morality as butt sex, which lets them put God into the "bad" category since he condemns butt sex. Anything that stands in the way of ramming fecal matter is the eternal enemy of the atheist.

Cats are disgusting animals and unironically are the animal of choice for many satanic sects and witches. You posting a cat shows how ignorant God believers are. cats are aligned with satan, not God

>Holy shit.... natural beauty....exists? This is conclusive proof that Yashweh the Jewish Desert Demon (or maybe it's Elyon, I forget) is real and the only God (formerly Gods) that exists and specifically the King James Bible is the only accurate accounting of his (formerly their) existence

I guess that's where we differ, i don't hold to your atheistic conceptions of beauty. For even a starving lion pursuing a pack of gazelle, so that it may live another day, strikes me as something beautiful.
The instinct and the skill of the hunter; sheer vitality of life striving to persist.

I see the world teeming with death and decay. The most common organisms on earth are bacteria. The most common biological agents are viruses.

Okay, what about marmots eating their own shit and causing yersinia tuberculosis to mutate into yersinia pestis that later killed hundreds of million of people. Do you think it was beautiful?
>>
>>18739919
that's only a problem if you are going with the pseudo-platonic abrahamic god that is omnibenevolent
if you go with more pagan non-platonic views of the divine you would see that is exactly the type of animal the gods would create

Thank you God for making me be born with crippling mental and physical disabilities in1 a turdworld country from a poor, uneducated abusive family. Thank you for making everyone around me a dick towards me. Thank you for making me ugly, socially retarded and less than mediocre. Thank you for making me an outcast since birth, for making all kids at school to either bully me or ostrasize me. Thank you for making me a shut-in virgin with a microdick.
Thank you God! :D

So by your logic, an undesirable consequence to us strips any natural process of beauty? That's just a conclusion that follows naturally from your atheistic presuppositions. You measure value or reality by the outcomes it produces. It's a view wherein, beauty can't be discovered in the world. It's only projected through our own subjective lens. The starving lion's hunt, a sunset over a lake, possess no intrinsic beauty beyond our psychological respones.

Yet ordinarily we never speak like this about our world. We speak as though some things are genuinely beautiful, as though beauty is a feature of the empirical reality. When I see the lion's hunt, I see (>>18740056). this is a beauty that is part of being. Things are beautiful because they possess order, form, etc. the lion hunting, a tree growing, stars in the night sky don't always produce consequence beneficial to us, they are beautiful, because they are manifesting the intelligible order of reality.

Crucially, the point is this beauty seems to point beyond itself. something like the plague is like pointing to blindness to deny the beauty of sight.
close-minded atheists seem to struggle to account for this intuition, maybe this is why you remain a snot-nosed brat.

The world is too absurd to have a creator. Beautiful and interesting as it may be. Especially not yours, it's full of fingerprints and tool-marks.

Your creator, I mean.

What an utilitarian way to look at beauty.
>>
>>18739916
While there is some beauty in the world, the amount of ugliness exceeds the amount of beauty, and even I with my limited perspective can think of countless different ways that the world could have been made better.

That leaves us with three options: Either there is no god at all, god has no influence over the physical world, or god is omnipotent but chooses to leave the world in an imperfect state. In none of those scenarios would I owe any thanks to god for the state of the world.
