[@splitpitch]

in defence of the caller, they do not really listen to him either. I agree he is creating a set of conditions for his own concept of god to fit neatly into, but the hosts continually obstruct him. By all means pick holes in his argument, but surely, to do that, you need to listen to his argument first. All of it, in one go without constant interruption.

In the beginning, Man created god in his own image. Since then, man's been trying to hide that fact.

[@Ploskkky]

You got that partially right. Man created invisible magical daddy-friends, also called gods, in his image. That is why these gods behave exactly like the primitive people who invented them. That is why the bible god for example likes ass kissing, is pro slavery, enjoys killing and even mass murder, behaves like a bully and a tyrant etc.etc. In short he is a a primitive, uneducated, uncivilized, tyrannical dick. That apparently was the best primitive men in the middle east could come up with.

"No christian has fear" … Not when God's given his shaky little hand a soothing squeeze, eh... Why do you need a God, is life that scary you can't get through it on your own, what's wrong with you? I would feel utterly ashamed if I had to admit I needed some fairy sky God holding my hand. I've got too much dignity to be a christian, I'd feel embarrassed, a bit of a failure if I were. So which one of the Christianities have you gone with then? Are you catholic, or one of the mental ones?

It reeks of desperation if the only thing you can do to save your invisible fantasy friend from oblivion, is to equate him with everything that is real. In fact you dilute your god in a sea of reality and the poor thing becomes completely meaningless. Not dissimilar to how homeopathy dissolves any working ingredient in a sea of water.

I could on the otherhand say that there is no proof that a qgichheck exists it's just a word or concept that you've or someone made up out of imagination. The same can be said of a god. There is no real, reliable or testable evidence that it exists except from some ancient book that has not been updated or proven, except by people's faith that it is true, in part because they want it to be true. But the book itself is proof that an all powerful god cannot exist because if it was the word of God then it would be clear and persuasive, persuading anyone who read it of this god's existence. But, it is not universally persuasive at all, indeed it is losing ground in places that have not been indoctrinated and where critical thinking is encouraged.

Thanks for the word deepity. I looked it up. A deepity isn’t just any old pseudo-profound bit of drivel.

Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” Buddha quotes (Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.)

Time is like temperature. The lowest possible temperature is Absolute Zero at which all particle movement ceases. A temperature lower than absolute Zero would imply that particles can move slower than being at rest, which is just nonsensical. The beginning of time is when all particles begin to move for 'The first Time'. It is not possible for particles to move before that because that would simply be moving the beginning of time backward, another nonsensical notion.
