Which concept of god are you talking about? There are so many! Most of the people on earth won’t won’t agree with or accept your concept of god. So, which one in particular are you speaking about? Personally, I like the concept of Odin. He promised to defeat and kill all the ice giants, and I don’t see any ice giants around!

As for me, I have a great life. I never complain to a mysterious wizard in the sky when anything doesn’t go my way. Everything I have is because I worked hard, got graduate degrees, took smart decisions. No sky wizard involved. I and my family have good health because we have great medical care, again because our doctor(s) worked hard in school.

There is a fundamental question you’re avoiding, and I suspect it’s because it negates the notion of a benevolent deity. That being: If evil isn’t subjective, and the notion of good and love comes from a deity, then why doesn’t the deity intervene when evil is committed? If the deity is responsible for a mother’s love, why does he pick and choose the mothers to receive this capacity?

you are really funny, your comments should be tagged as Atheist’s (irrelevant) FAQs.

As for proving evolution, there are lots of sources that can help you with that. That’s a task that’s too herculean and voluminous for this. But, it’s available. But I think it’s dubious that you’re asking for proof.

I asked you bring a single example how love of mother evolved.

Everyone has to find their own purpose in life. It’s up to you to find meaning. No one defines it for you. My life has a purpose. I have a drive to get up in the morning. I have a drive to be the best person I can be. To be caring, and giving, and selfless, and none of that comes from a a belief in a deity.

so is it ok, to become careless about other people, not-giving, and selfish? as no one would investigate/ inquire you for this carelessness and selfishness???

As for killing innocent people being evil: That’s a very odd statement. There are suicide bombers in Pakistan that would totally disagree with you. They not only think it holy, but they think it their duty…! I bet they can find justification for it in the same deity that you believe in.

are you in a position to claim that no one in this world kill innocent people, as if there is no evil.
Evil is evil, irrespective of justification.

That’s an absolutely absurd statement! I’ve never robbed, or killed, or raped anyone! The world’s largest philanthropists, as I mentioned earlier, are all atheists.

So you’re telling me, if you didn’t believe in a deity that you would start raping, robbing, and killing people? That’s a very frightening thought!

so atheists don’t do evil at all?
