POPULAR ATHEIST MISCONCEPTION : 'Everything can be explained
Naturally'
Hello on this Friday afternoon. Each weekend, we take a closer look at
a P.A.M . These P.A.M.'s are intended for the honest Seeker/Skeptic
who hasnt closed thier mind due to an apriori-philosophical bias , and
who is on a sincere quest for the truth on the most important issue in
life : Whether a personal Creator exists, and, what does he expect
from us. This weekend, we shall take a look at the cornerstone of
the atheism Faith , which is that the proven scientific evidence for
the immense fine tuning of this Universe, our Solar system, Earth...
in addition to first life arising by chance...can be all explained by
Natural Causes comprising of accidental compilations upon compilations
for no good reason or purpose.
What the atheist Faith needs to show using sound rationale and
compelling evidence, is how accidents upon accidents without purpose
can :
1. Give us our scientifically confirmed 250 + tweaked Anthropics
(physics Constants) , all required simultaneously and all working
collaboratively, allowing this planet to exist so we can live out our
lives on it .
2. Show us why US living on earth ISNT a purpose ., since we are here
living on it.
3. Give us our 60 major systems making up our Human Anatomy with
hundreds more subsystems all working in unison, so we can live.
4. Show us why our Human Body ISNT a purpose., since all who read this
is alive.
5. Tell us why 'atheists' believe there is NO purpose to our lives,
yet live daily as if there IS/WAS purpose to thier lives.
6. Tell us why 'atheists' believe there is no such thing as Moral
Absolutes, yet EXPECT/and even DEMAND others treat them with absolute
honesty, fairness, and integrity .
7. Explain how first life came about 'naturally' , when even world
reknown atheist CoDiscoverer Dr. Francis Crick said the probability of
life arising by chance ,naturally, is 10^40,000 (which is NO chance
at all).
Since its people of the Atheist Faith (faith in Naturalism and
accidents) that try to convince themselves and those around them,
that, thier Faith is rational and plausible... perhaps an 'atheist'
in this NG who considers him/herself a devouted follower of the
Faith , could give succinct answers to the above questions
incorporating actual evidence instead of resorting to the same ol'
copout of telling Inquirers (such as myself) to : 'F. off' .,
because they have no rational explanation and simply cant afford for a
personal Creator to be real .
Join us next weekend as we continue to challenge the Atheist Faith to
see just how rational and sensible it is.
Until then, enjoy your weekend , and remember....dont take the
Universe or your Life for granted , for, neither show signs of being
accidental whatsoever.
Regards, Dave.

This is yet another example of the "argument from ignorance" or
"argument from incredulity", which is an invalid form of reasoning, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_ignorance
In this way, Dave's unsupported and ridiculous assertions stem from
a need to try to undermine rational thinking in a misguided attempt
to add credibility to his own superstitious beliefs. There is no
need to deal with any of the detail in Dave's argument as his case
falls simply by the fact that the underlying logical reasoning is false.
To quote from Wikipedia:
"Commonly in an Argument from Personal Incredulity or Argument from
Ignorance, the speaker considers or asserts that something is false,
implausible, or not obvious to them personally and attempts to use
this gap in knowledge as "evidence" in favor of an alternative view
of his or her choice."

Oh come on Dave - we've been asking you for so long now...
You've been asked before, so please don't duck it yet again. Please
provide real positive convincing evidence for the existence of your god.

REPLY: If you dont like the evidence ive presented based on modern
scientific discovery, then please tell me what kind of evidence would
be enough for you to FOLLOW the Universes Creator ? What would it
take for you to FOLLOW , that is, to give him the glory, honor, and
submission of your life in love and service to him ?

Ian, he cannot.
You know it, I know it and all of the members here know it.
He cannot because there is none firstly... but secondly because he cannot
present an argument cohesively, does not understand the meaning and fidelity
of 'evidence', regurgitates fundamentalist dogma and agenda rather than
inspirational thought, is psychologically affected by religious
indoctrination, has meaningless criteria for establishing evidence and
'facts' and is unable to intellectually grasp the notion of a wider
possibility for existence.
His narrowmindness resultant from fundamentalist religious exposure prevents
consideration of other points of view as to stay faithful to his belief
system requires dogmatically rejecting any ideas outside of the very narrow
band of extreme, literalist, biblical interpretation.
It truly is pointless engaging (...as if one could..!!) with him. Really,
really, truly, pointless......

REPLY: Hi Mark. Youve been in this NG for some time now Mark, so
youve read and considered the evidence ive listed for a Designer/
Creator ; but, as an 'atheist' , its mandatory that you never
seriously consider any evidence for a WorldView / Faith, other than
the one which fits in well with your lifestyle of personal maximum
freedom . Requiring evidence 'so you can believe' is just a phony
smokescreen excuse ; there isnt an adult on earth who cant determine
that a personal Designer is always needed for personal Design , and
even without reading a simple book on the enormous complexity around
us , each person can see the evidence of special creation. Mark, you
can keep on trying to convince yourself that there is no intelligent
Designer/Creator behind it all....but, it means you have to be
constantly trying to fool yourself so YOU can remain #1 , instead of
him. I know the psychology behind atheism Mark because i lived it
like you are doing now. Dont go and waste your life making yourSELF
out to be #1 in the Cosmos ; give God his rightful honored place in
your life and you wont be regretful later on. There isnt a more major
issue than this for yourself . Do you know how to go about drawing
nearer to the Creator of this Universe ? It first starts with
humility and setting aside your Pride leading you to ask for
forgiveness for rejecting God so often in your life. I know you can
do it if you truly want to Mark. It is the most reasonable, rational,
intelligent course of action known to mankind, for, it has to do with
our very purpose in being here. That is, to know the Creator on a
personal basis. Please dont shrug it off any longer and please take
it very very seriously Mark. Dave.

Since your faith is a lie...you should have no problem with it...but
that is the rub with cockroach beliefs like christianity, the denial
is like rust on an old car...its the only thing holding it together

Simple ...
We've shown you that pointing out (real or imaginary) problems with
science doesn't constitute evidence for your hypothesis.
You are the one who is proposing this hypothesis - it isn't down to
us the work out what your evidence might or might not be - how
should we know?
So, provide evidence that such a being exists. Real, positive
evidence. It really is put up, or shut up time!

I've never engaged in defamation. I've pointed out that you have
been lying to us repeatedly and given evidence to substantiate that,
which you have made no attempt to refute.
As far as the "Atheism faith" or "Atheist Religion" goes - I'm happy
to answer these questions in full....
As we've explained countless times, we are not aware of the
existence of an "Atheism faith" or "Atheist Religion". You are one
who has proposed that these exist. We can can provide no supporting
evidence for them, because - as far as we are aware - they don't
exist. We think that these are simply a figment of your imagination.
