Jon A A rational, evidence-based explnation that is beyond reasonable doubt in science is called a theory, even if it lacks absolute proof. The same in a criminal court is called a conviction.

The Heathen God is the concept invented by humans in a naive attempt to explain that which is inexplicable or beyond human comprehension.
The Heathen If "God" exsisted don't you think he/she/it would have revealed themselves to the human race by now. 2,000+ years of silence & hiding is rather a poor joke even if there was a god. I say there is no god.
leibniz This german philosopher said "that nothing exists unless there is sufficient reason to be thus rather than otherwise"
in the event that there were a god, something would have happened for which there was insufficient reason ,at least, in the reasoning mind of the writer.
The Heathen God & religion the ultimate sick joke!.

If Jesus REALLY loved us he would come back and tell us it's all been con and that his REAL dad was a randy Roman soldier who had his end away with mother Mary while Joseph was out at work.

I mean, that's FAR more likely to be the truth.
EA Miller EA Miller “We need more science books, and fewer bibles. Science provides knowledge, and knowledge is power. There is no knowledge to be found in a book that features a talking snake, magical fruit, and a seven-headed dragon.”

-GN Boston
EA Miller EA Miller “Primitive stupidity is responsible for superstition, bigotry, misogyny, and homophobia; but it is religion that codified these things and remains the greatest impediment to moral progress.”

-AOAS
EA Miller EA Miller If people actually “walked by faith and not by sight” as many pastors say repeatedly, not a single scientific discovery would have ever been made.
EA Miller EA Miller "Christianity is BS, but it gave us human rights and Western values."

Christianity didn't give us 'Western values.' Greek and other philosophers discussed ethics in greater detail. Christianity was a step backwards. The Enlightenment gave us these values, not the bible.

-Armin Navabi
EA Miller EA Miller Stating that a misogynistic, xenophobic, homophobic, self-aggrandizing, petty, extremely violent "god is love" is much like claiming that shards of glass are candy.
EA Miller EA Miller Morality from the Bible? Think again:

Numbers 31:17-18 (KJV)

"Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves."

EA Miller EA Miller Think outside of the box (the Bronze Age, magic god in the sky, fairy-tale book). You'll be so much better off and expand your horizons exponentially!
EA Miller EA Miller The god of the old testament thought that "iron chariots" were formidable. Yet another proof that ancient men were the authors of the bible and not some supreme being.
