Zone1 Proof God Doesn’t Exist

What standard do atheists have to measure good and evil without The Bible?

The Bible? Ron Reagan (unabashed atheist) made some interesting remarks about that:

Hell is a very touchy topic for the religious, and you can understand why. Hell is the way you control people. You better do what we say or you go to hell. You may do fine in this world, but oh, eternity is stretching out ahead of you and it's all going to be hell.

Sam Harris does an interesting thing. He says to an audience, after determining that most are not Muslim, for example: "All right, you Christians, you atheists, realize that there are perhaps a billion Muslims on Earth who are dead certain that you are going to hell." He pauses for the kicker: "Notice how little sleep you're losing over that thought."

Religious folks don't realize that their warnings about hell are about something we consider to be imaginary. We don't care. You might as well tell me I'm going to Oz. It's related to the concept that we're all atheists. Even the religionists are atheists. They're atheists about every other god except theirs.

Not one of them believes in Zeus, a few believe in Vishnu. They're fine being atheists about that. We just go one god further. We take it all the way.

'Bound by disbelief'

You have to admit, though, that this is a little weird, gathering here together. A lot of you came from other places, even other countries, to meet here in Madison, Wisconsin. We're all bound by disbelief. There's a certain disadvantage to this, you have to admit. We don't have soaring cathedrals. We don't have special outfits. We don't really have rituals.

Yes, we do have faith, if you'll pardon the expression, in things like reason and facts, scientific inquiry, the truth and the pursuit of it. But still, we're all about not believing in something. And let's face it, there's no such thing as a Round Earth Society.

What a deceptive little shitbag you are, linking to Reagan's son like it's daddy. Disregarded for shitbagginess.
Bible or not, you're a shitbag.

the foundations of the desert bibles are built on false heavenly personifications, corruptions that irrevocably dismiss them from any relevancy as guides of moral objectivity.

The Israelites had no proof of God's existence; they merely had evidence, which even so, may or may not have been convincing. Certainly not for foreigners, who typically remained foreign to God.

Evidence for God in a post-Israelite world is in the transformation of the world into its cruciform shape, a shape that Christ, his apostles, and the primitive Christians envisioned. Christians have turned societies and even governments to the kingdom of God. Their faith has prevailed on the earth. In a word, they have conquered.

Other than parting a sea, tablets written in stone and manna from heaven?

Other than parting a sea, tablets written in stone and manna from heaven?

fairy tales that never happened or provide the tablets claimed from the heavens, the only physical evidence used by all three desert religions as proof and their green lite to persecute and victimize the innocent.

... what, by chance is "manna from heaven".

Why don’t we repeat what Elijah and the prophets of Baal did to prove who is the true God?

Answer (1 of 4): It wouldn’t work. When Elijah supposedly called down fire from heaven (lightning) to start his fire, he was acting like a storm god, just as he was acting like a storm god when he called down lightning to kill the troops sent to kill him. Even his ascent to heaven in a chariot of...

Now summon the people from all over Israel to meet me on Mount Carmel. And bring the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.” So Ahab sent word throughout all Israel and assembled the prophets on Mount Carmel. Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.” But the people said nothing. Then Elijah said to them, “I am the only one of the Lord’s prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and fifty prophets. Get two bulls for us. Let Baal’s prophets choose one for themselves, and let them cut it into pieces and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. I will prepare the other bull and put it on the wood but not set fire to it. Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord. The god who answers by fire—he is God.” Then all the people said, “What you say is good.” Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one of the bulls and prepare it first, since there are so many of you. Call on the name of your god, but do not light the fire.” So they took the bull given them and prepared it. Then they called on the name of Baal from morning till noon. “Baal, answer us!” they shouted. But there was no response; no one answered. And they danced around the altar they had made. At noon Elijah began to taunt them. “Shout louder!” he said. “Surely he is a god! Perhaps he is deep in thought, or busy, or traveling. Maybe he is sleeping and must be awakened.” So they shouted louder and slashedthemselves with swords and spears, as was their custom, until their blood flowed. Midday passed, and they continued their frantic prophesying until the time for the evening sacrifice. But there was no response, no one answered, no one paid attention.
