*THREAD SPINOFF* What made you an atheist or agnostic?

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

Thats what makes God the source....you can't explain certain things that happen....for instance if you're in a car accident with 4 people and 3 people die but you walk away without a scratch what can your reasoning be for that? Physics? That would be nothing but God

so the billions invested in safer cars has nothing to do with it?

A safe car can only protect you but so much like I said the other 3 are dead so how come it didn't protect them

This shyt is just sad.

"I can't explain a situation so that means god did it"



If you can't explain an event how can you have the answer to it?

"I can't explain it but I have the answer"
So many contradictions in this thread.

So how do you explain a situation like that than?

 

[Blackout]

theres no such thing

According to whom?

I dont have a collection nor a system of beliefs nor is it organized.

I simply have one belief that a higher power exists and leave the rest to facts.

It would be quite a reach to call my single belief a religion.

You adopt a monotheistic worldview though, which is the result of religious ideology.

My worldview is governed by facts first and belief second.

That itself isnt rooted in religious idealogy nor a monotheistic worldview.

You believe in a single deity. Thats monotheism. Stop dancing.

^Read that again bro

monotheism is why I call myself a non religious theist.

You're making up your own little religion then pretending like you're different from those who follow the larger religions.

Being in a smaller group doesn't mean you're in a separate group.

 

[FLYINHAWAIIAN]

So how do you explain a situation like that than?

shyt Idk.
But that don't mean if you don't know, that a magical man in the sky did it.
If you don't know something, study and figure it out.
Don't just say Idk how to explain...oh I know the answer!!! God did it!

How you gone give an answer to something you say you don't know? Contradiction.

Christian: where is the Malaysian flight.

Me: Idk. I know it's in the red sea though.

Monotheism isn't a religion

It is.

The notion of what god is, what it does, what extent it exists as and notions of how it interacts and what it's history is all a derivative of religious ideology.

Remember, you learned the concept of monotheism from someone or something.

Im not making anything other than one belief. Ill let facts make the rest.

Religion is more advanced than simply believing that a higher power exists.

One belief that a higher power exists isnt "an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and world views"

No amount of arguing you do will change that.

So based on that Im not religious.
