Atheist are like: "You are silly for believing what is written in a book by a bunch of dead men. . . things you have never seen and can't prove for yourself. Just to prove you wrong . . . here is a science book full of stuff written by a bunch of dead men that I have never seen and can't prove myself"

Not to mention, much of the science they love to blather on about it conceptual/hypothesis/a stab in the dark at this point.


They will tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt that God did not create the universe. That it didn't just pop into existence because some sky daddy made it so.



Then.....you turn around and ask them how the universe was created and their best answer is the big bang......AKA it just popped into existence for no reason. Seems legit.

What is time? What is consciousness? How did the universe begin? It HAS to have a beginning....and there had to be something here before it.....where does the universe exist? How did the universe come into existence, and from what/where?

These are the questions that will make you really question everything if you really think about it. And the truth is, the theist answer is just as valid as the atheist answer at this point.

Heres a tip that has served me well. Any time that someone needs to announce that they are the smartest guy in the room, they arent.  

Any time someones argument is rooted in them being the smartest person in the room, they arent.

Specific to this, the imbecile who claimed a 150 iq and speculated it was higher than "any theist", doesnt have a 150 iq and is incredibly naive.

The scary smartest people i know were never the ones that told me how smart they are.  Sometimes it took a while for me to figure out how smart they were, but to a person, none ever felt the need to tell me anything about their intelligence.

Which of course shows ignorance of what agnosticism actually is.  Agnosticism holds that discovery of such knowledge is inherently unknowable, and therefore believes that no amount of empirical evidence can be applied to the question of knowledge of god.  Agnosticism is counter to Gnosticism.  It isn't merely being ambiguous about God.

Might wanna research the actual terms before you toss around that intellectual superiority bro.

Atheist = a lack in belief in God or gods for lack of good evidence.

Agnostics = a lack in belief in God or gods for lack of good evidence but doesn't like to make waves by acknowledging the term.

I have a fairly high IQ myself, but I only brag about it in certain instances.  I usually do it when one of my liberal friends calls gun owner low IQ neanderthals or something along those lines on Social media.  I'll then challenge them to an IQ test just to watch hilarity ensue.  Of course they know that I will score higher than them on the test and it really pisses them off.

Funny, I took note in College that most of the ten-year faculty in the hard sciences and engineering where in fact religious.  Chemistry prof was a prominent leader in his church, physics prof would often quote scripture during an anecdote, my thesis advisor was Sihk, and one of smartest people I've met in my life.

Not saying there weren't non-religious or atheists but if there were they didn't give a shit about what others thought.  

Over on the liberal arts side though... they were ideological atheists, fucking SJW regressive atheists that think people of faith are less than them.

I don't care what you believe as long as your not driving a truck into a crowd of people, or throwing families into an oven.  But those both religious and atheist that want to pick a fight based on differences of belief need to fuck off.

I also remember during my undergraduate commencement the keynote was broadcast from the international space station by an alumn. He said something to the effect of "God Bless, God Speed" and people got pissed off.

Really?  Just fuck off already...

It's just more about faith. I *choose* to believe in God.


The way I see it, I can either choose to believe in God where there is zero hard evidence......or I can choose to believe everything just popped into existence one day just because, and that we eventually evolved from single cell organisms floating around in a primordial soup. The idea that our reality came into existence for no reason, out of nothing, seems just as unbelievable to me.


It's just faith based. I'm a theist obviously, but you won't catch me trying to *prove* God exists. Because you can't.

I'm somewhat in the same boat.  I am a reformed theist.  I tend to lean more agnostic than atheist, but I do bounce back and forth a bit.  I do believe  that no religion on earth has it right, as they all appear to have been created by men to control other men.  If there is a creator I believe he looks at us as more of an ant colony, and doesn't care what happens.  This is a view I will more than likely never change as long as there is a St.Jude's full of little kids stricken with cancer.

One of the things I really value about all the philosophy courses I took in college is that it impressed on me one key point - the greatest minds in history have disagreed, and disagreed profoundly on these types of questions.  Socrates, universalist/deist.  Rene Descartes, devout Catholic.  Nietzsche, atheist.
