Why Doesn’t God Prove that He/She/It/Exists?

If God exists and has miraculous and supernatural powers, why doesn’t he/she/it prove that he/she/it exists by performing a simple miracle that can only be explained as a miracle, the evidence of which is not only simple and salient but incontrovertible? He could perform a miracle in which the 5-10 best known atheists now livingContinue reading “Why Doesn’t God Prove that He/She/It/Exists?”

Morality can’t exist apart from God; it must be God-Sanctioned

There can be no morality, no “objective moral values,” apart from God, so argue Christians like William Lane Craig in his scores of debates and books and articles and Frank Turek in his books and articles and debates with Christopher Hitchens and others. Since there is no God, Christian, Islamic, Judaic, etc., since no GodContinue reading “Morality can’t exist apart from God; it must be God-Sanctioned”

“God Given Rights”

The phrase “God given rights,” and the claim and belief that “rights come and came from God,” is not only false, clearly a delusion, but absurd, contradictory in regard to a plethora of disparate Gods, and inconceivable and inexplicable as to how this was and is objectively and pragmatically realized.

Consciousness is an effect of having a brain in a body with senses, of which eyesight is paramount and hearing is second in importance. For those who don’t believe in God and the soul and mind/body dualism, only animals -from insects to humans and all in between- are conscious. Since God, as imagined and conceivedContinue reading “God and Consciousness/Self-Consciousness”

Where is the “Soul”?

Like God, the soul is an immaterial person, an intangible entity, a disembodied mind that only exists in the minds of those who believe in miracles and the supernatural, and, specifically, in mind/body dualism, De Carte’s “ghost in the machine.” Assuming the “soul” exists purely for the sake of argument, where is it? In theContinue reading “Where is the “Soul”?”

Exposing the Absurdity of Religion by Asking Simple Questions, Concrete and Specific

The unreality and absurdity of religion, deism and theism (far more so), the fantasy of God and, under theism, the soul and afterlife, immortality and an eternity in heaven or purgatory, is exposed by asking simple questions, concrete and specific, questions that can’t be answered, concretely and specifically, objectively and empirically, but only by assertingContinue reading “Exposing the Absurdity of Religion by Asking Simple Questions, Concrete and Specific”

Like God, the Afterlife and Soul are Fantasies, Blessedly

If Christianity is true, then all who believe that Jesus was and is the son of God who was born of a virgin and resurrected after his death by crucifixion will go to heaven when they die and do who knows what for eternity -while all those who don’t so believe will be tortured inContinue reading “Like God, the Afterlife and Soul are Fantasies, Blessedly”
