I'm An Atheist and Here's What That Means

Just wanted to clear things up a little because some people seem to make the most remarkable baseless assumptions about atheists and atheism.

100 reason evolution is so stupid look this up on youtube, now let me see you debate this

@kentucker45 tell you what, I'll look it up and check it out but before I do, allow me to make a prediction: every one of these "reasons" will be bogus, debunked long ago many times over. I can say that with confidence because there hasn't been any new objection to evolution for over a decade and every objection so far made has been soundly and finally debunked. That aside, what has evolution to do with this video?

@MrArpas123 yes folks do check that out for a giggle. You'll find the usual logical fallacies - no proof FOR atheism (proof for a null hypothesis?), Hitler was an atheist (does that mean god does exist?), atheists admit it's possible for god (which one?) to exist, the only alternative to atheism is christianity etc - all, surprise surprise, on a video that has comments disabled. It has dishonest cowardly douche-bag written all over it. Enjoy ;o)

@Mogley52 one teensy weensy problem with your statement. It's demonstrably incorrect. New genes do arise all the time. For example, on average, you'll have around 17 genes that you didn't get from either parent. If you're statement's true, where did they come from? New genes have arisen many times in lab experiments with bacteria, mice, fish etc. etc. Genes that weren't present in any ancestral population. You now have to explain this data according to your own view. I'll just wait.

ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G. Ranganathan (B.A. theology/biology)

WHAT ABOUT THE STARS? Gravity explains how the order found in the precise courses of trillions of stars is maintained, but gravity can't explain the origin of that order! Did all the trillions stars agree to get out of each others way? C'mon! Disorder in the universe is because of chance, but the order is because of design.
