  Why does an atheist have to disprove anything?

  by digderidoo in

  2. friends

  i have noticed alot of debate in posts lately between an atheist argument and a christian one.

  it seems to me that the atheist is asked to disprove god's existence.

  some times these debates have started to get personal with one side attacking the other with insults and i do not want to start another argument like these.. but i dont get it?

  But this change of attitude also is not acknowledgment of creationists' insistence on some divinity without having put in hard time studying the scientific underpinnings of their otherwise rather improbable existence. how much investigating are you doing?

  i've always wondered what mainstream christianity's viewpoint is in regards to armageddon.

  i understand there's no timetable.

  but that sense of urgency that exists with jws doesn't seem to be there either.

  What will you do when the Great Tribulation Begins?

  i've always wanted to ask this question to those that have decided to leave the organization.. what will you do when the great tribulation begins?.

  right now folks, a lot is happening in the political world.. gordon brown (prime miniter of england) last week gave a speech to the un stating that it is time for the un to step in and solve the world's problems, (specifically mentioning the economy and hunger crisis worldwide.).

  barrack obama is shaping up to be the next president, a fellow who sure knows how to persuade and lead great crowds.

  Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in [ a ] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

  "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, [f] but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

  42 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

  So from this I understand to go out and make disciples. Also to be ready because it is none of our business when the end will come. only God knows. we should not be obsessed or preocuppied with the end only be ready.

  I am surprised to see so many apostates and JW haters on this forum. I thought this was a site for JW friends. Why invest your time and negative energy on people you do not like?

  we don't hate anyone here dear. we speak truth here. if you have any truth please speak

  Because God(s) 'exist(s)' in the unknown areas the burden of proof will almost always lie with the one trying to wrest god from the gap in our knowledge and fill that area with testable theories. It has been that way since the Ionians, and probably will be until long after we are all gone.

  So if God came and spoke to me how would I prove that to you?
