Nihilism is atheism's version of wishful thinking. Good luck with that.
Who said reality has to be fair?

Here, let me pull a "you":

Theists' commitment to religion is entirely predicated on their desire for justice and morality in the world.

It isn't, and that's thanks to free-will. If life were fair, then freedom goes out the window. Let's hope you can see the connection there.

And you're wrong. His existence just happens to resolve many of the underlying problems we see in reality, one of which is a lack of true justice.

For the record, I subscribe to no religion. I simply believe in God.

@Q

I'm not bitching about shit. The point of my thread was exactly it's title, people bringing up arguments for the non-existence of God that belong in preschool debates. That's all.

If you believe or don't believe in God, I don't give a fuck tbh. But I'll give you a run for your money in an argument.

BTW @Diode

I understand your question. It's seems to be a variation of questions regarding the inherent/axiomatic state; i.e. Why should we assume there is something rather than nothing, or, why should we assume a state of order is greater than a state of chaos, why is X preferred over Y.. etc.

I don't see a lack of true justice as a problem and your characterization that all atheists see it as a problem that needs resolution is false.

Not an atheist myself, by the way.

Actually, atheists not seeing it as a problem is a problem. Let's suppose you have a daughter. A man rapes her, he never gets caught. I mean, I suppose time would heal those wounds, but do you owe it to your daughter to bring her justice? Idk, that's on you. You don't really know what justice is until you're the one getting the other end of the stick. Death isn't the great equalizer, it's a pussy's escape from consequence. At least that's what they think.

Honestly, this could be the matrix. Simulated reality is a serious theory of inquiry, and if you've heard of the "space-time crystal computer", a theory by;

Quote:
Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek, a theoretical physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
http://usahitman.com/atccoeu/

This being a computer simulation isn't completely absurd, even plausible. So my idea of God could simply be the creator of this system, who knows?

Nah, I ain't hurt at all tbh.

I can't dictate what you believe in. So there's not much I can say. Probably the safest place to be because you're not getting shit from atheism all the time.

It is a problem for you. It is not a problem for everyone. It is especially not a problem for atheists who certainly do not believe in hell, despite your willingness to deem otherwise.

It's boring to begin with. I mean. We can't even be sure if there's a floating chair that goes through my body at this exact moment, or that we know absolutely everything, we just need to be reminded about them etc!

You know what. These debates bore the shit out of me on Netcees, nobody says nothing new that hasn't already been thoroughly examined. And if you aren't reading up on philosophy, or psychology for that matter, there's nothing interesting to discuss either tbh. Joining a philosophy forums circlejerk isn't helping much either unless you know what the fuck they're talking about.

Christianity, to me, is a book of reasons why one should act a certain way, with jesus being the martyr that made it worth reading.

Jesuse kicked it with hookers and they can make anything happen. Explains the followers, and also explains the resurrection. That many devout followers can push the cause after death.

That's just me though.

Jesus was a jew, this should also be discussed.

Religion is a mind control device.
Religious people have responsibility issues and a deep desire to be subservient.
