>>533297727>the universe and life came from nothing
>>533297727>>533297762Atheism and gnosticism are both paths to hell
>>533297762>Theist failed an either or propositionIronically theists serve as proof there is no Intelligent design.
>>533297827There was never a literal nothing. It can't exist by definition.
No. Children are brainwashed into religions. Intelligence alone can't always free someone of their brain washing. The methods usually try to tie beliefs to a person's identity. A functional person rarely challenges these things.
>>533297881sure rabbi
>>533297902Gnostic theists and atheists don't exist. Knowledge can be demonstrated, and no one can demonstrate knowledge of God. God is supposedly supernatural and can't be tested or confirmed in anyway.
>>533297727atheism is the highest praise God gets desu senpai. you monkeys look around and ignore everything around you that was created, including life in general. you niggers are dumb as fuck. btw God isn't religion. that came later.
>>533297727Atheism is pretty stupid. Especially considering even if we weren't created directly by the creator of the universe, we have been created by some alien species.
>>533297727Swap your religion for an anti-religion and you'll become an idiot just like the OP.Most of these types who were millennials with parental issues abandoned it, but this imbecile is one of the remnants.
>>533298291Aliens aren't gods, retard. If humans were created by aliens, every religion on the planet would be wrong.
>>533297827>God came from nothing
>>533298443You keep telling yourself that. Abrahamic religions are absolutely manifestations that came out of creatures from outside coming in and telling us they created us. But I guess /r/atheism is not getting into specifics like that for you so you don't know much. Understandable. The more time you spend here, the more you will expand your petty horizons.
>>533297727between tesla, nvidia and openAI(if you get a cut from it) that us some pretty good brand and market reach to capitalize on your own phone and shit. just brain storming.
>>533298599More baseless assertions. That's literally all religion has.
>>533298140Suppose I tell you I have direct knowledge of God by way of experience? You can never know if that is true or not. If it’s true. I can hold that knowledge even though it can’t be demonstrated as true or false or proof of Divine origin. Even I present knowledge I was given by the Divine, you can deny that I learned it in this way even if I know it came from a Divine source. Demonstrability is not the bellwether of Divine gnosis
God loves athiests for being brave
>>533298912>God loves athiestsand shows it by a complete absence
>>533297727Atheism is gatekept by morons
>>533298140>no one can demonstrate knowledge of GodLiterally everyone can, as long as they take two seconds to think about it. Every effect has a cause, which means there must be a first cause. This first cause is by necessity uncaused, or uncreated, meaning it exists outside of time since it is the cause of time. This proof has never been refuted and has been accepted as irrefutable as far back as Pythagoras, at least.
>>533298675You're adorably naive. It is kinda cool how much you have to see and learn ahead of you. I was in your shoes way back when. Keep an open mind and keep reading anon.
>>533298227>atheism is the highest praise God getsTHIS
>>533297727Atheism is a retard containment zone. We dont know shit. Being agnostic is the only way.
>>533298859That isn't knowledge. If you can't independently verify it, it's just an opinion. >>533299402You're assuming the universe isn't eternal and simply changes states. Time itself is a product of the universe. Time doesn't mean anything without the material world to act upon. No one knows what existed before t=0 and we probably never will.
