Comments on: 21 Unconvincing Arguments for God http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2007/09/24/21-unconvincing-arguments-for-god/ by Hemant Mehta Sun, 27 May 2012 03:00:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Kill Ignorace http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2007/09/24/21-unconvincing-arguments-for-god/#comment-850617 Kill Ignorace Mon, 23 Apr 2012 12:33:00 +0000 http://friendlyatheist.com/2007/09/24/21-unconvincing-arguments-for-god/#comment-850617 I would just like to say that your generalization of who atheists are about as close-minded as Fundamentalist Christians. I am an open atheist and have encountered 100s of others, none of them ever being close-minded to religion. We don't have a religion, we just don't believe in a god with no evidence, and we are definitely not all arrogant liars. Seems to me the delusional people are the ones hearing voices, that's called schizophrenia. Or it's a release of certain neurotransmitters in the brain and combination of images/voices in your head. Also, atheists have been around for thousands of years and most of them have morals because we believe in living a good, happy life. It is the ONLY one we believe we have and we'd like to enjoy it. My morals include making yourself happy and the ones you love happy without infringing on the rights of others. God who I believe in the New Testament alone killed 300,000 people and ordered the killing of millions, does not sound like a moral guy to me. If you are going to post on an atheist website you may want to be truly open-minded.

You may want to take a look at www.ufocoverup.org to see why NASA's probes have not found any life on these planets yet. Hi PDXLady,

Actually, there is reason to believe that Venus and Mars are already inhabited even in the condition they are in now. You may want to take a look at http://www.ufocoverup.org to see why NASA’s probes have not found any life on these planets yet.

The author found that Venus and Mars, if they were differently sized, might have been much more habitable; the Earth's distance from the sun could have been much different and still supported life. Even in our own solar system, we're less special than we'd like to believe. I'll post the citation if I can remember it.

All humans need to do, of necessity, is learn to keep it simple. To do that is really the easiest thing to do: keep oneself focused on what really needs to be done to make a better world, by starting with oneself. Make one's life an example of ethical living, as best as one can. For the sake of ethical living. Because we are all humans, a type, a species. The question of God will answer itself automatically.
