Zone1 Reasons why atheists don't want to believe there is a God

[Fort Fun Indiana]

You are a liar

If you were indifferent you would not be posting on this thread at all

Not true, as god isn't the topic. Swing and a miss. Atheists and their thoughts are the topic.

So maybe learn some manners, since you are talking to an expert on it. Instead of making up dumb shit to soothe yourself.

There is a strong correlation between insecurity and a tendency to seek out or engage in conflict

I've met a so-called "Christian" who is afraid to think for themselves and to a person they functioning liars and hypocrites. They talk about how they love their non-existent god. How much they love him, and want to share that love otherpeople, unless those people Jews, Muslims, Buddhist, or Taoist. They judge people on the color of their skin, who those people want to marry and think have the right to decide who other people can marry and use their religion against people they believe are an enemy.

Every time I see a lying so-called "Christian" post they are "Pro-Life", and several posts later talk about how there are no innocent children in Gaza and Ukraine and they never talk about how unborn have died at the hands of Russia and Israel.

You people to a person disgust me.

It certainly can’t be “need” right?

My question is do you have control over your choices or not?

Your last question aside, I'm addressing the topic. You're pretending that atheists don't believe in your god because they don't "want" to.

If I based my beliefs on what I "want", I'd believe in an all powerful god, who likes me best. And an eternity in paradise after I kick.

Notice these guys all just make shit up instead of responding to the actual things atheists say.

It's a sign that their own faith is dubious and shaky.

Actually I did no such thing. I asked two questions. Both of which were aimed at clarifying if you believe you had a choice in the matter. So don’t quit your day job to become a mind reader because you suck at that.

But setting that aside If that’s what you wanted to believe it doesn’t say much about you. I don’t know anyone that thinks that way.

You sure about that?

Maybe you confused me for someone else.

Interesting.

Is that limited to theists?

And it shows too.

You’ll be much happier and successful in life if you become less judgmental and more curious.

The more interesting question to ask an atheist is, "Do you hope you are right about God and the (absence of an) afterlife?"

If you are right then life has no meaning. There is no reason to be "good," kind, charitable, honest, fair, or considerate. No reason to leave a tip in an establishment where you will never go again. No reason not to cheat on your taxes. No reason to tell, for example, the truth to an insurance adjuster. No reason to be faithful to your spouse.

You SHOULD BE a sociopath, concerned only with "will I get caught?" and what are the risks of my selfish behavior?

Atheists respond, "Well, if fear of punishment is your only reason for being good, you are a moral cripple. I don't need any of that to be generous." But the response is in the facts. You [the atheist, statistically speaking] are not generous. Atheists do nothing for their fellow man, nothing to charity, and so on.

Wouldn't it be a better world if EVERYONE believed in God, and believed in a reward for virtue in the afterlife and punishment of evil in the afterlife?

The answer is obvious.

Look all you want at religious fanatics doing foolish and harmful things. Any belief system can be perverted to self-aggrandizing ends. But believers do more good in a day than all the atheists in the world to in their collective lifetimes. China is a good illustration of what happens when nobody believes in anything. They will cheat you blind without giving it a second thought. I could give a dozen examples, headed, of course, by theft of intellectual property, which is a national policy.

Your logic is impeccably WRONG

- proof their religion is based on forgeries lies and fallacies - moses the liar madeup those commandments they claimed were from the heavens and are found in all three desert bibles - making all desert dwellers duplicitous in moses's crime and deception.

By all accounts they raised standards above that of their contemporaries.

the admission their religion, all three desert religions are based on lies and deception to persecute and victimize the innocent - a reliance not on the heavens than their own misguided sense of self indulgence and greed.

But you replied to my post. Maybe try reading what I wrote as a response to the OP.

I’m going to say this again because it seems to have been lost on you. By all accounts they raised standards above that of their contemporaries.

no, the desert religions recorded history of persecution and victimization of the innocent and general corruption of their souls through madeup religion proves otherwise.

they use god as a foil for their own corruptions disguised otherwise to deceive and plunder what is naturally good they long ago have themselves abandoned.

With respect to your argument against the standards established by the ancient Jews, you are arguing against a people that raised standards.

At heart, most atheists are essentially Lucifarian in their beliefs, whether they are aware of it or not.
