A simple, yet powerful analogy.

Checkmate.

how do they know mom exists when they have no prior knowledge of what a 'mom' is?

they have no concept of a being outside of themselves because they lack that knowledge.

except for the part where babies being born into their mothers arms is real, where dying and going to heaven can never be confirmed.

No, its not checkmate. The "it exists because you can't prove it doesn't exist" is so fucking ignorant and retarded.

their brains are so far underdeveloped they literally do not have the mental capacity to interpret thoughts and ideas, let alone contemplate life after death, especially since they cannot comprehend they they even exist.

So i guess mom is also an all power deity that can read our thoughts and also demands our devotion in order to please her..right?

this. if your going to try ad back up christianity, use some good evidence. i could simply say "i think obama is a robot" even though there is no evidence for it.

Babies can literally feel the umbilici chord and understand that they have a physical connection to another being. Nothing like the "spiritual" nonsense religious people talk about. Stupid point.

Also how does this support a christian god? why isn't this in support of a jewish or muslim god?

Score should be more like Atheists: 4.55 billion Christians: 0

This post is disgusting.


You die, have a wild dmt trip, then cease to exist.

This is the lamest argument ever, you can't prove god doesn't exist therefore he does exist. Well you can't prove he exists there fore he doesn't.

Keep your beliefs in church no one wants to see them here.

Its kind of hard when religion shoves his dogma in society's face everyday. When it violates even the most basic of human rights that any kind of thinking person can realize and has a say in our political system.

believing either side of this argument is dumb.     withhold belief until there is evidence either way.
evidently people arent doing that since over and over again this shitty thread is appearing

This is an incredibly dumb argument/analogy, but the easiest response to it that I've seen is that the idea of 'mom' would be testable and verifiable whereas the idea of god is not.

your right it cant be confermed, unless/until you go to heaven then it is proven to you but you cant tell the world, just like the fetus' they cant prove mom exist untill the meet mom.

wild dmt trip = a dream. the amount of dmt released at the time of death is much larger than the amount released in the average "10% of your sleep" dream. i fucking love thinking about this since there is no way to prove what happens during that trip, but it is proven to exist. IMO the human body is just a shell for the limitless mind, so who knows where that trip will take you. the way i see it, that dmt trip could be a new "reality" and your mind would eventually adapt to that environment.

i don't really care if anyone follows up on this, i just wanted to put my point of view out there...

they actually can confirm they are in their moms stomach pretty easily, by feeling the umbilical cord and the walls around them. We can't prove candy land doesn't exists or that the greek gods don't exist so why is a man who lives in the sky and listens to everybody's thoughts at once more plausible? Because some nomadic herdsmen wrote an extremely barbaric book in the bronze age? Candy land sounds more plausible to me.

This. I'm not a huge religious freak (nor am i really religious at all) but there is a very huge difference between them all. and just because someone says "god" doesn't mean christian. pig headed OP thinks his religion is the only one
