Okay so there is a website on the internet called topix.com. It is a site where people can anonymously express their opinions. In the category of my home town, someone made a post about Christians. There were some good views and some people made good points. But there was one post that caught my eye..
This person used the screen name "Believer":
"Let's say for one moment that there is a God. And let's say that this God is the supreme being of the universe. This God has breathed worlds, planets, galaxies, stars and life into existence. Now let me ask...how is it that we expect this God to coincide with human logic? This is often the issue in this atheist-christian debate. Often, Christians as well, along with atheists expect God to coincide with human logic. It's quite laughable, that we think that our logic is, or should be in line with God's logic. this God that sees beyond anything that we can even dream about. Even beyond time itself."
My Reply:
Lets say for one moment that there is no god. And lets say that nothing happened in the beginning, and that nothing will happen when we die. Lets say that everyone in the world opened their eyes, and realized that there is no god. We would be more technologically advanced, way less war, genocides never happened, less slavery. I could go on with this list all night but I'm going to stop here. Anyways, back to the main point. Logic is logic. There is no higher or better logic than anyone else's. Logic is the the way you think, your thought process. And just because you believe in this imaginary friend, you are technically claiming that your "logic" (or lack of) is the same as your god. Which it is a sin to compare yourself or make yourself appear to be on the same level as your god.
Doesn't it seem a little funny how christians believe that their logic is beyond ours? They claim to be logical people, but yet they believe that there is an invisible man in the sky who watches us, and judges our every move. They base their life on nothing but blind faith. There has never nor will be any proof of any "god" or supreme being. We (Atheists) point that out and they try to say that we have no logic because we refuse to believe in the imaginary friend that they use as an excuse for all the fucked up things that they did in their lives. Atheists have more logic than any religious believer. We look for a way to fix things. Religious people pray and ask for help. Which seems to me like the act of a coward. Someone who cannot face their own reality. So they make up an imaginary friend and hope that this imaginary friend that they call "god", will solve all of their problems. SOUNDS REAL LOGICAL TO ME!
I love this sentence: "This God has breathed worlds, planets, galaxies, stars and life into existence." According to the bible this is true; or maybe he thought it or spoke it into existence. The universe was brought into being by god, by his thought, word, breath. Interestingly enough no christian will mention, in the same context, that only man was made out of dirt.
