Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Pamho, agtSP! An atheist, strong or weak, can build his atheism in belief in one of the following: 1. The belief that God doesn't exist. 2. The belief that we can't know if God exist. 3. The belief that no evidence and/or solid proof for God exist or has been found. 4. The belief that no one has been presented with evidence and/or solid proof. 5. The belief that no evidence and/or solid proof has been presented to him and those he met or heard about. 6. The belief that no evidence and/or solid proof has been presented to him alone. 7. If evidence has presented to him and he won't accept it then he can have: The belief that he can evaluate the presented evidence. 8. The only way the atheist might build his atheism on knowledge, is if he admits that he has been presented with evidence and/or some proclaimed solid proof, but that he knows he didn't understand it. But even that can be questioned, because the atheist might actually have understood the evidence but just be in denial about it. He could be deluding and lying to himself, which often happens to people when they have very strong, negative feelings about a thing. In other words, he can actually only believe that he didn't understand the presented evidence and/or solid proof. So ultimately, atheism is a position build on faith. Any more ways an atheist has to believe? Or just any comments? Ys, AKD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
