The only thing all atheists say is that they are not theists.
that fail to make any logical sense. One just excoriated me for believing in God. He charged, “There is absolutely no way that you can be certain that God exists.” How does he know this? Has he examined and debunked every evidential claim that God exists?
Both a non-sequitur (debunking god claims does not prove or disprove a undescribed theoretical god) and a transparent attempt to shift the burden of proof.
Where is his supporting evidence? I don’t think that Jesus’ Apostles would ever take such a view after all the evidence they had seen.
Citing the claims as evidence for the claims.....
"Instead, we can simply ask the atheist, “How can you be certain that we cannot be certain? It is not logical for you to claim certainty when we deny us that possibility.”
Atheism does not include a claim of certainty.
They also claim to be “freethinkers” even as they deny that freewill is even possible. Go figure!
Imagine that, two separate non-conflicting things are not the same thing. Go figure!
Likewise, they often claim, “We don’t need God to be good.” However, they do not even believe that there is any objective good or justice.
Another non-sequitur.
Instead, they believe that these are just concepts that we have invented and that they have no existence outside of our minds.
Know, not believe.
However, when it suits them, they make-believe that these concepts are real.
Pure projection.
These are just a few of the logical conundrums we encounter
Maybe this poster should take a course on logic 101, 'cause nothing he's asserted so far is either true or a logical conundrum.
once we reject the existence of the Absolute Source of all being and truth.
Remains an unevidenced claim, no matter how much atheism doesn't make sense, or more accurately this poster fails to understand.
However, the God-denier experiences greater problems once they try to put together a coherent worldview system.
Except atheism is not and does not purport to be a worldview. (System is redundant in this case)
For example, the atheist refuses to abandon the concept of “human equality.”
Another straw-man.
So many of the causes that the God-denier pursues are based squarely upon the concept of equality. However, they cannot rationally sustain the belief in equality. Why not? From the atheistic perspective, which denies the existence of anything extra-material,
It does no such thing, so this is yet another straw-man.
Where is the basis for equality apart from the Biblical revelation that we are all created in the likeness of God?
1. It doesn't exist in the bible.
2. It does exist in other fairy tales though.
Related to this, our entire legal system represents the protection of humans and not fish or mosquitos. But why doesn’t it include all life forms, even the Ebola virus? There is no adequate atheistic rationale that it shouldn’t.
Because atheism is about theism, not morality or whether every life form is equal to all the others.
Also, viruses, including Ebola, are not lifeforms.
The value of humanity over the animal kingdom rests exclusively upon God and not nature.
Except that it doesn't.
"Respect for personal beliefs = "I am going to tell you all what I think of YOU, but don't dare retort and tell what you think of ME because...it's my personal belief". Hmm. A bully's charter and no mistake."
