  1. I didn't think I would have to bring out the pictorial explanation of stuey's atheist theory, but I guess it is time...

    One picture says it all...

  2. since people believe in hundreds of gods in the world everyone is an atheist. we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

    That's actually a reasonable use of the term atheist. I am an atheist when it comes to Vishnu, or Zeus, or etc. But am a theist when it comes to the Christian God.

  5. You failed miserably in discussing physics. Now you're trying math? The first indication is that you'll fail just as badly.

    Have you ever heard of a concept called "paradox?"

  6. Concise and to the point. Very good!

    OTOH, how can one believe in so many non beliefs? :D Without any evidence of nonexistence?

  7. All you have to do is show me some numbers that exist independent from and not of the mind of man, that are not a projection of arithmetic concepts onto the world around us, that don't require symbols to represent them...then we can discuss my knowledge of math...

    Just show me the numbers in their original form, not in some language which is symbolic of the concept of math and arithmetic...

  9. You seem to be hearing impaired. So let me repeat.

    Have you ever heard of a concept called "paradox?"

  10. So you can't show me numbers, because they are concepts.

    Just as God is a concept in the mind, which atheist believe is a false concept and as such close off and harden their hearts to God, and theists believe is a true concept and they open their hearts and commune with God, and agnostics belive there is no way to know if the concept of God is true or false so they don't involve their heart in any manner...which is why they, unlike the resident atheists, are not bitter about God.
