I wanted to put this question out there to see how strongly everyone feels on this subject. Being that most of us trust in scientific fact and reasoning, I was wondering if everyone is absolutely, undeniably, 100% sure that a god doesn't exist.  I personally take into account that there is no proof of any cosmic creator so therefore I am about 99.9999% sure that there is no god. However we all agree that science is an ever evolving field and I don't think that there will ever be any proof to support the existence of a supreme being, but I can't be 100% sure until there is concrete proof against one. I would like to know what all of your thoughts on this.

Interesting! Can you point me to information of the origins of gods are documented in history? Thanks!
Polytheism, fear, fear of the dark, and primitive man's concepts of the cosmos..
... and the fact that in a group of people who say "I don't know", the first to say "I know!" with a lot of assurance, gains immense power.

Any time someone asks me if I believe in god, I ask them to define that word... and since 75% of them cannot define "god" in any understandable sense, I ask them how I am suppose to believe in something, they themselves cannot define. It usually ends any debate or bad feelings right away.

98%. Maybe about one in fifty thoughts that I have on the topic has a "What if? Maybe." smell.
I am pretty damn sure. Like, 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure.
Add a few more decimal places and I'm with ya ;-)
Just tack an infinity sign onto the end, thats what I do.
I'm with gold guy add a few more decimals.
I am about 99 % sure becaus once in a while I think of something and say to myself Hmmm maybe and then reason slaps me in the face and says come on are you seriously considering it! Then I gather my things pack up my desk and go home god free
***nodding***

I'm not not quite that positive. I give a probability of gods existance of about   1.77245385090552E-42.

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:28pm 2 Comments

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
