Splain this one, god loonies

Actually, I don't need to pose a question.

The answer is always the same to EVERY question. God did it with his magic.

And he moves in mysterious ways.

That's all you need. Every question sorted. Wonderful stuff.

I moved in mysterious ways the other day. Couldn't shit for love or money, which NEVER happens to me. Thought about digging it out with a spoon, but settled on two double espressos. Mystery solved.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

A universe with a G-d in it would be very different to one without a G-d in it. Rocket scientist said that not me. I'm not sure I exist most days.... :read:

I think I can see where you were going wrong.

Yeah, religious people are fucking retards who doesn't know this. Though don't get to thinking atheists are any better, just look at how many have swopped atheism for feminism and you know they are a bunch of retards as well.

Wasn't it Pope Alexander VI , Roderigo Borgia, who said to his illegitimate son,
" Cesare my son, all weemon, are whoors".

Since the Pope is infallible, what more do you need to know?
Don't pay good money for an analyst, when you can get papal advice for nuthin.

Seriously, Equivocation. Feminism = women, since when. Are you happy that you need to resort to logical fallacies rather than admit there might be something wrong with feminism? Aren't you even a little bit miffed by the anti-free speech going on around Western universities? Fuck me the most annoying feminists are the male feminists and always have been, they can't seem to switch the dogma off. Even feminists wont date them the sad pathetic nervous wrecks, lol.

No allied cookies for you. :smoke:

So you don't give a fuck about men, fine as nobody else does either. So what about boys: falling behind in education, no male role models at school, highest suicide rate by a country mile, No due process at college. Demonized at school using the terms: toxic masculinity and toxic testosterone, gee it never ends. Hate your fellow men all you want but if you don't care about boys and young men then you have no heart. This goes for the rest of you on here as well.

It is easy to mock, though how were our ancestors suppose to answer this very question? They didn't have the knowledge we have now, It is quite easy to see how religion evolved. Even now look at how many people who are non believers still cling to some dubious moral code. There probably exist some part of the human psyche that needs this belief just to function, obvious not with all humans but with a hell of a lot of them.

Are they? Or are the Atheists the retards? To discover which is which simply post your critically robust scientific evidence that a universe with God is different from a universe without God.

Those who make the claim that a universe with God would be different from a universe without God but cannot provide this evidence are the retards.

Yes, it is easy to mock. So easy that retards do it all the time. So, tell us, what knowledge do "we" have today with respect to the existence or non existence of God that our ancestors did not have?

I didn't mock our ancestors. I agree, they didn't have the advantages that we have.
It's a basic inherited human trait, to form a mental picture of a living entity, to explain physical occurrences that we don't understand.

From an evolutionary point of view, this is an advantageous trait.
In wild Africa, many predators hunt mainly by night. So the only way that you can be aware of their presence is from signs found in the daytime. So you see signs, and picture what kind of creature made those signs. It's a fundamental way of understanding your environment, that helps you stay alive.

So when modern people see things that they don't understand, it's perfectly natural to attribute those signs to some kind of entity. And the bigger the mystery, the bigger the imagined entity.

And that's why, when we first began to ponder the cause of the bigger things, like how the world came about, we imagined a superhuman entity. As no human was capable of creating worlds, that seemed obvious.

It's a basic inherited human trait, to form a mental picture of a living entity, to explain physical occurrences that we don't understand.
It's also a basic human trait to observe something that others do not observe and conclude that the observation is valid and true. You know, like the whole "tree falling in the forest" thing.
From an evolutionary point of view, this is an advantageous trait.
Indeed.
In wild Africa, many predators hunt mainly by night. So the only way that you can be aware of their presence is from signs found in the daytime. So you see signs, and picture what kind of creature made those signs. It's a fundamental way of understanding your environment, that helps you stay alive.
And guess what? The image, even if faulty, does not change the simple truth that the predator exists, does it?
So when modern people see things that they don't understand, it's perfectly natural to attribute those signs to some kind of entity. And the bigger the mystery, the bigger the imagined entity.
And just like the ancestor, a modern image of what God looks like in no way affects the factual existence or non-existence of God. However, the image exists for a reason, probably the result of a personal but unexplainable phenomenon that factually occurred which generated the image.
And that's why, when we first began to ponder the cause of the bigger things, like how the world came about, we imagined a superhuman entity. As no human was capable of creating worlds, that seemed obvious.
Or maybe we observed an actual superhuman (but entirely natural) entity, or his handiwork.
