Re: ATHEISTS .... explain
And they are still waiting for it.
however, the claim of the theist can never be unequivocably falsified. there is always a 'maybe'. atheists may be able to eliminate all hypotheses that exist today, but can they do the same for hypotheses that arise in the future or for the miracles that have occurred in the past? maybe.....maybe not.
This reasoning can be used to justify belief in any kind of superstition. Would you belive in flying pigs now because in future somebody might prove them. True belief means you know the truth NOW. It doesn't mean that you believe that someday, somebody will come up with a proof.
theist position can never be completely eliminated, but the atheist position can be eliminated
That is the strength of the atheist position. It can be falsified, but it has never been. It has withstood the test of time. The fact that theist position is not falsifiable means that the hypothesis has not been properly formulated and is invalid.
if atheists exist only because all theist positions have been rejected, i would like to see the reasoning of those rejections. i want to see from A to Z, why is buddhism wrong, why is hinduism wrong, why is taoism, islam, christianity, judaism, sikhism, austrailian aboriginal theology, native american spirituality, amazon indian philosophy, african spirituality......why are they all wrong. why has mankind, from the beginning of its existence up till now, been wrong in believing in the existence of higher powers/spirits/gods/God that have direct influence on their lives.
If you want such a detailed answer please go to your local library and read some books on atheism by atheists.
why is it that atheism, a modern innovation for the modern age, supercedes all of these.
atheism is as old as religion. Besides, there are a lot of things that people believed for centuries that modern science has disproven.
as i said in post #1: what is the evidence for your belief?
Well, it is not my belief. But atheist make a very strong case when they point to the following evidence. Every single phenomenon in the natural world can be explained without the need for existence of God. Is this not powerful evidence?
