What do you tell this community about God?

It's really quite simple - when you think you have all of the answers (or think you have found the one who has all the answers), then you stop looking.

There is a lot more to be learned and discovered about the universe, and inferring the existence of an infinitely more complex 'creator' to explain the existence and complexity of the universe is redundant.

The only way primitive religion exists today is through the child abuse of forcing it into very, very young children but thanks to better education and growing intellects so many teens are able to discover the truth, throw off the indoctrination and step into the real world!

So atheism is not a conscious decision or a belief but a realisation!

The first person to produce a single tiny little piece of verifiable evidence for any god will become world famous and mega rich!

Academia states that in the absence of any sort of evidence of the existence of something it must be deemed not to exist until verifiable evidence is found - thus god is held not to exist pending some sort of verifiable evidence.

The bible is what is called "Faction” A fictional story set in a factual time and place. Thus the time, place and real historical characters are all correct but the fictional characters and stories are not!

There is not one single mention of Jesus in the entire Roman record - that is right - not one! At the same time as he was supposed to have been around there were a number of Jews claiming to be the messiah - all of whom are well recorded!

There is not a single contemporary record from any source and even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!

He was supposed to have been a huge problem to the Romans and produced wonderful miracles but still not one contemporary record?

Even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!

Pilate is recorded in the Roman record as a somewhat lack luster man but no mention of a Jesus, a trial or crucifixion that would surely have been used to make him look brighter!

At best he was an amalgam of those others but almost certainly never existed!

Not one word of it is contemporary with the period and was not written until several hundred years after the period the story is set in!! How did the apostles write their books more than a hundred years after they would have been dead?

Christianity is an invention of the Italians and that is why it came from the Holy ROMAN Catholic church!

Please realize that those claims for the Old historians are worthless since they were not even born until long after everyone in the stories would have been so long dead!

Josephus AD 37 – AD 100

Tacitus AD 56 – AD 120

Suetonius - 69 – 130 AD

Pliny the Younger, 61 AD – 112 AD

Justin Martyr (Saint Justin) AD103–165 AD

Lucian - AD 120 -180 AD but he was hostile to Christianity and openly mocked it.

Pamphilius AD 240-309 AD

Eusebius AD 263 – 339 AD

Photius AD 877 – 886 AD

Thallus - But there are no actual record of him except a fragment of writing which mentions the sack of Troy [109 BC] Showing that he was clearly not alive in biblical times.

Some even try to use Seneca. 4 BCE – 65 CE but as a Stoic Philosopher he opposed religion yet made not a single mention of a Jesus or Christianity!

Even funnier is trying to claim Celsus AD ? – 177 AD Who said that Jesus was a Jew who’se mother was a poor Jewish girl whose husband, who was a carpenter, drove her away because of her adultery with a Roman soldier named Panthera. She gave birth to an illegitimate child named Jesus. In Egypt, Jesus became learned in sorcery and upon his return presented himself as a god.

Research shows whilst education reduces religious belief each year of further education reduces religious belief by up to 10%!

that there is a god

He is real and all will bow to Him

Let's tell the community that God is there, because True Christians have had their direct experience with the presence of God.

So, you should make two categories, for example, the category of section A, believes because with prayers God has revealed Himself!

Instead, the category of section B, does not believe because it has never tried God to be seen, because it has never prayed.

So, God exists for believers!

That's right. That's right!

Actually, it's ATHEISTS provoking. I see it. And this is NOT for those against, just basic understanding.

Atheists are in total darkness, see nothing.

If you see wonder, design, your body, great.

This is a strange place where we live. And we're strange, too!

Not everyone SEES the same!

Then don't they BLAME those unlike themselves? Strange.

Why don't we see the same?

Is it indoctrination? Bias? Prejudice?

So much is personal! I was led, (didn't have any idea back then) to Jesus?

Led to really study some Greek, the original language?

I saw easily that Jesus had to be God, part of God, or 'on the team'.

Then had miracles, real ones, indisputable.

Certainly saw everything on this earth is created.

Atheists say there is no god.

Agnostics say prove there is a god.

Theists say there is a god and I don't need proof.

With respect, your grammar needs work. My guess is that you question atheists' responses to Christian provocation. We don't instruct as they do. We only state our lack of belief. It's no big deal. Not for us anyway.
