Does God exist? (William Lane Craig vs Peter Atkins debate) (16 Viewers)

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Have a good day Sheik and no offense, but maybe you should take an interest in another subject, discussing religion (for what, 3 years?) here surely hasn't made you any smarter on the topic

Cop out!

It's not crazy to ask why gods' revelations focused only on such a small amount of things in space. If god, through Moses, couldn't even mention, let alone describe the other celestial objects that exist, then how should be believe that a heaven exists?

It's bullshit!

That's a very childlish and narrowminded look, you'd be better off investing your time to actually read the start of Genesis yourself rather than critisise one out of context taken verse.

I have read Genesis. It's bullshit.

Once again, blaming me for reading a script out of context is a cop out. You are ignoring the vagueness of the verse. You are ignoring gods' ignorance of the other celestial bodies. You are ignoring the incorrect timeline of creation of the sun and the earth. More over, you are only looking at the claims made in ONE piece of scripture. And you have the balls to call me narrow-minded? Nigga please...

It's quite a big book as it is, imagine how big would it be if he told everything? Just imagine how many servers mose would have had to maintain, wouldn't leave any spare time to teach and preach.

You're right. Forget everything. Let's just stick to the stuff within our solar system. Hell, I'll narrow it down to Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and Jupiter. Shouldn't take too much now, would it?

Besides, if god engineered the big bang, then why not just say "In the beginning, god created the big bang" in Genesis 1:1? If god was the creative force behind evolution, why did he make up lies about creating Adam from dust, and Eve from his rib? Why couldn't god be honest about his creation?

I have no idea, but why would the reader of that time need to know about mercury venus and such? It's not a book about our solar system. To me it seems you are using that book for a wrong purpose.

You wouldn't take a washingmashine schematics to help learn to read and play music would you?

Sheik do you think God owes you an explanation on how he created the Earth and all the other stuff, with a step by step manual named "Creating the Universe for dummies"? The Old Testament was meant for people B.C..

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

I have no idea, but why would the reader of that time need to know about mercury venus and such?

Because it's the truth?

Why would the reader at that time need to know about the firmament? About the rivers Pison, Gihon, Hiddekel, Euphrates?

Not really. But if god bothered to recite his achievements to men on earth, then I think he owes us honesty and a proper explanation.

 

[Raz]

Man, if we make an assumption that god is true, then for sure it is you who owe him everything, he wouldn't owe you nothing at all.

Anyway, it would have to stop at some point wouldn't it. If it's not rivers, then at stars, if not stars then galaxies. This is not the way to go if you really wanna look or know god. If you want to argue just for the sake of it, well then it's different.

You're right. I'm incorrectly assuming that god is honest. Reading Genesis, god is always lying. He lies to Adam that he'll die if he ate the fruit. But Adam didn't die. He lies to the readers saying he created earth before creating light and stars. And he's not even omniscient, because he asks Adam "Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?". Shouldn't an omniscient being already know the answer to such questions? It throws doubt over the credibility of the rest of his revelations.

has anyone ever asked god or some of those that has his e-mail adress, what god will do when/if the earth is hit by a comet that shatters the earth?

Sorry, but this is just

 

[pitbull]

You're right. I'm incorrectly assuming that god is honest. Reading Genesis, god is always lying. 1) He lies to Adam that he'll die if he ate the fruit. But Adam didn't die. 2) He lies to the readers saying he created earth before creating light and stars. 3) And he's not even omniscient, because he asks Adam "Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?". Shouldn't an omniscient being already know the answer to such questions? It throws doubt over the credibility of the rest of his revelations.

1) Adam did become mortal and die later on. lol.

2) Why are you so sure that earth and heaven means planet earth? Why not the Universe?

3) Seriously?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

1) Adam did become mortal and die later on. lol.

That's because god did not let Adam eat from the tree of life. But this raises a good question? Was Adam immortal before he ate from the tree of good and evil? And if so, then what's the point of the tree of life, and why was god relieved that Adam didn't eat from the tree of life and thus become immortal?

EDIT: Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

God says that Adam will die in the same day he eats from that tree. But he died after 9 centuries.

2) Why are you so sure that earth and heaven means planet earth? Why not the Universe?

Because words have certain meanings. Earth is the planet we live on. Heaven is an imaginary place that's claimed to exist. If you are suggesting that these meanings are not right, then bestow unto me the dictionary of god.

3) Seriously?

Yes. Gods actions are contradictory to his attributes. If you believe in gods' revelations because he is omniscient, then this point throws everything into doubt. God might as well be a moron.

 

[pitbull]

True, the third point definetly shows that even if God exists, he is a moron, I don't know how I didn't notice it before, thanks for the eye opener Sheik. I guess you were right all along.

Earth is just a form of gravel

Sheik, what is the point for you to discuss or talk or think about god? Like what do you want to achieve in a discussion like this or any other you have had in not so distant past? Honest question.

Thou hast been educated. Now all is good.

Cos I like my beliefs to be challenged. Winning such arguments strengthens my beliefs, while losing them leads me to search for better arguments.

But why would you need strengthening your beliefs if you already believe? With belief there is no middle ground oyu ether do or don't. So what's the point in challenging your beliefe just so you could win the argument, that seems like you want to strengten your position so you could believe in or the other way not that you already believe, if you would wou wouldn't need to strengten it.

And imho god is not a subject that should be approached with this atitude. Though that's just what I think, not gonna bring any scientific enstein paper to back it up if its actually true or not
