Arguments Against the Existence of God
Lots of folks like to assert that you cannot prove a negative, but this is a completely and obviously self-defeating position.

- About Me
- I'm a happily married atheist. I come from a family of right-wing Christians. My father is a Southern Baptist music minister. In my early 20s I abandoned fundamentalism and began exploring other Christian traditions and religions before rejecting religion altogether in my late 20s. I have a BA and an MA in philosophy from Baylor University, "the largest Baptist institutions of higher education in the world." I enjoy spending time with my wife, movies, music, good beer, and general irreverence.
