  The Case for Theism

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "theism" here means "belief in a god" or "the worldview that an intelligent designer created the universe and life.

  " ("god" here means a being with a mind who initiated and/or wound-up the universe, and designed life on earth)the most common claim that i see atheists making on twitter, is that "no evidence" exists in support of belief in a god.this post will remove any excuse atheists have for claiming "no evidence exists" in support of an initiator.

  atheists can still reject this evidence as "weak," but they cannot truthfully say it does not exist.now, it is true that we do not have "observable, repeatable, falsifiable, empirical, scientific" evidence conclusively proving that an initiator exists, but we do have many lines of philisophical, experiential, and logical evidence.and... here... we... go:1:) many leading scientists, including stephen hawking, say that the space-time-matter universe had a beginning at the singularity/big bang.

  For the love of all that you hold dear, please, oh please, before you continue with your tedious vomit, please go away and learn some worthwhile science and the understanding that goes with it, then, and only then, if you must, come back and we can talk sensibly. Otherwise, peace off.

  I read your tedious shyte.

  I am responding to some, though not all because, in all honesty, I can't be bothered and your tedious shyte isn't worth the efort but here goes.

  1. Time is part of the space-time continuum. Time only exists if space does and vice versa. After big bang, the physical laws in the resulting universe demanded that an effect resulted from a cause. Before big bang, we can make no such assumptions since time nor space existed. Therefore, it is entirely possible that an effect could preceed a cause or in fact there was no connection between cause and effect.

  Basically, you assume that the same laws applied pre-big bang as applied post big bang which may not be the case.

  Please see the experiments conducted at MIT where a vessel was evacuated of all matter and elemental particles were seen to be created spontaneously without the aid of a supernatural being.

  2) There are billions of solar systems in this universe. It would be staggering if at least one were not fine tuned for life, purely on the basis of randomness and probability. In fact, in all probability, there are many solar systems in the universe that are fine tuned for life.

  3) Science has never observed life spontaneously developing. This is true. However, it doesn't mean that it isn't happening. Oh, and by the way, have you ever seen your precious god?

  I really can't be bothered answering any others. It's just far too tedious.

  Best Argument for Atheism - In your view.

  by LAWHFol in

  2. beliefs

  if crisis of conscience is one of the top watchtower doctrine killers, what is the coc of theism?.

  i'd like to read a book, or other material that does the best job logically arguing for atheism.. i've not read any darwin, however it is my assumption that his focus is primarily on evolution, is this correct?

  if you were to recommend one book or a few pieces of reading material, which do the best job of defending atheism, what would they be?.

  The day a religion comes up with this, hell, even I'll join.

  .. religion gives you a disease and then gives you a placebo for a cure.

  Proof - of what?

  by Doltologist in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a few weeks ago, these two jovies turned up on my doorstep.

  being in a good mood that particular day, i told them that if they could prove that god existed, i'd become a jovie - and i meant every word.. they gave me two documents which they asked me read and told me that they'd be back in a week.

  the first was called "was life created?

  telemetry11 must be so fill of Cognitive Dissonance, and other stuff, that their mind must be doing cartwheels to cope. Either that or telemitry11 is a complete twat.

  Bible Chronology, Egyptology and the Great Flood

  by cappytan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  fact: bible chronology says the flood occurred between 2348 and 2370 bce, depending on which scholar you listen to.

  fact: the great pyramid of giza was constructed 200 years before, in c. 2560 bce..

  so, if you believe in a literal interpretation of noah's flood, you believe that the egyptians built a great civilization, were destroyed by the flood in 2370 bce, and then somehow, they reappeared immediately after the flood, picked right back up where they left off without skipping a cultural beat.. oh, and isn't it ironic that legitimately studying the great pyramid of giza debunks jw mythology now?

  Kepler

  Easy way to resolve this controversy.

  Take travelogue book about Egypt with good photos of Great Pyramids to Kingdom Hall.

  Consult with Elder and ask him to point out the high water marks.

  Elders are so shit thick, they couldn't even point out the pyramids.

  Your previous post wasn't quite clear. It is now.

  You should give yourself a pat on the back for getting out. You deserve one. I'm only now beginning to understand just how difficult that is.

  Take care y'hear?

  I don't think happiness is determined at the global level. Surely, it's an individual thing No?

  Religtardism does address a need in Man but that need was created by religtards in the first place. It created the need so that that it could then solve it. Cute, no?

  What was the need?

  The need to cope with the fear of death which didn't exists until the christards came up with the concept of heaven and hell. Before that point, there was simply the 'afterlife' which Man automatically went to following death. One didn't have to prove what a jolly good person one had been in life. We simply went straight to the afterlife. Death, before this point, was accepted by Man as being part and parcel of life.

  Then the christards came along and said that there were, in fact, two afterlives. The good went to an afterlife called heaven and the bad went to the afterlife called hell.

  Of course, by donating money and land to the christard church, one could book one's place in heaven regardless of how evil one had been in life.

  Those at the top of the christard hierarchy used this to reward or to punish the christards at the bottom of the hierarchy. This is called mind control.

  So yes, christinsanity does address Man's needs but it was a need created by religtards in the first place.

  The Man with the Golden Arm

  by Marvin Shilmer in

  james harrison is australian and is known as the man with the golden arm.

  i've neither researched nor inquired of his religious disposition, but i feel safe assuming he's not now and never has been associated formally with the watchtower organization.

  this man is a national treasure and hero of the first order.
