Atheists Evolutionists, why is atheism full of paradoxes?

After we effortlessly and slowly evolved vocabulary for human speech through natural selection, now we have to sit and learn English/ Germany/French/ Swahili/ Arabic or any other human vocabulary there is.

Update:

The language that we evolved became so difficult that we had to learn it again otherwise it wouldn't be possible to speak it.

    - Atheism is - we do not believe in your fantasy - that is not a paradox.

    You do not have to learn another language so the obligation to which you refer does not exist. I do not understand (and probably you do not) how the existence of many languages is a paradox and what it has to do with atheism. I learned French and British Sign Language thoroughly enjoyed the process. You could always do what many do and speak English more slowly and louder, which is often the best attempt many English speakers make to speak another language.

    Atheists don't believe in the existence of any deities - where is there a paradox here?

    If God exists, prove it.

    Languages evolved over time - nothing paradoxical about that.

    I don't believe in any invisible entities if some people call them gods or make religion for them is not my paradox The paradox is that a brain made by a god is should be capable to understand that atheist is a word made by Greeks to call unbelievers 5 centuries before any Christian exist and evolution is working theory of biology that is science. Science is not atheism someday you will grasp that is not really hard.

    In their paper "Natural Language and Natural Selection," researchers Steven Pinker and Paul Bloom theorize that a series of calls or gestures evolved over time into combinations, giving us complex communication, or language. As things became more complicated around them, humans needed a more complex system to convey information to one another. Think of it like this: Early man sees a group of deer he wants to hunt. He grunts a sound to his hunting partner that means "deer are nearby." One day, a storm comes in and the hunter notices that thunder scares the deer away. As a result, the hunter goes hungry until the storm passes. Over time, the same hunter also learns to recognize the warning signs for bad weather -- dark skies and increased wind. Early man realizes that when the sky darkens and the wind picks up, he needs to tell his hunting partner to speed up the pursuit of the deer. Therefore, he comes up with a series of grunts that reference both the deer and the bad weather. That series of grunts was the beginning of an evolutionary adaptation that eventually became language. As humans learned more about how to best survive, they developed a need to communicate these survival methods to their population. And that's the adaptation theory in a nutshell.... your made by a god brain should be able to handle that explanation.

    God clearly did not provide you with the language skills to clearly get across whatever BS it is that you are trying to say.

    why only ask atheist? there's more religious people that believe in evolution than atheist.." why is atheism full of paradoxes?" it's not it's just a lack in a belief nothing more.also if you want an answer why not ask in the proper section? you know biology.

    Paradox - a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well founded or true.

    I don't know if the OP's intention was to make fun of atheism or not but if so then it is clear they don't understand the word Paradox.
