Yup! So much for either 😂

Can y'all prove there isn't? The universe is actually pretty smart....

So I suppose […] that some evil genius, no less cunning and deceiving than powerful, has employed all his ingenuity in deceiving me, and I think the sky, air, earth, colors, figures, sounds, and all other external things are nothing but illusions and dreams which he used to set traps for my credulity, I consider myself as having no hands, d ‘eyes, no flesh, no blood, as having no meaning, but mistaken belief have all these things, I will remain steadfastly committed to this idea, and if, by this means he is not in my power obtaining knowledge of any truth, at least it is in my power to suspend my judgments: which is why I take the greatest care not receive any falsity in my belief, and so will prepare my mind all the tricks of the great deceiver, that for powerful and cunning he is, he will never impose anything on me”

“But what is it that I am?” A thinking thing. What is a thinking thing? Is one thing which doubts, which means that conceives, affirms, denies, wants, who does not want, which also imagines and feels. Certainly, this is not much if all these things belong to my nature. But why do they not belong? Am I not the one doubt that even now almost everything, who nevertheless hears and sees things, who affirms these alone be true, who denies all the others, wants and desires to know more, who will not be deceived who imagines many things, sometimes even despite that I may have, and who feels as much as through the organs of the body. Are there any of that that is not also true that it is I am certain that I exist and that, even if I could sleep forever, and that gave me being would use his entire industry to deceive? there is also none of those attributes that can be distinguished from my thought, or that can be said to be separated from myself? Because it is self-evident that if it is I who doubt, hear that and wishes that he not need anything here Add to explain it. And I certainly also the power to imagine, for, although it may be (as I assumed before) I imagine that things are not true

I think their is a God, we just can't see him. I think he works through all of us, think about it. We have Dr's, lawyers, scientists, artists, entertainers, carpenters, etc, etc,So if these people didn't have these skills where would we all be?

And all this was passed down as knowledge that had nothing to do with the existence of any deity, whatsoever.

To copy is our learning curve.

I don't understand your comment.

You either are willfully blind, or you truly have no understanding.

Knowledge is passed down from one generation to the next; through books and parenting. And this has nothing to do with any deities, whatsoever.

Ok I understand your comment now.

Thank you for your understanding. It’s hard to reach some because they wish to remain blatantly ignorant of the facts. 🙏

Oh you're welcome.  God bless......

You can have it. 😂

And your words imply a singular god. Would you care to explain?

An atheist created a case in court against the upcoming Easter and Passover holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against Christians, Jews and observances of their holy days. The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized days.
The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the passionate presentation by the lawyer, the judge banged his gavel declaring, "Case dismissed!"
The lawyer immediately stood objecting to the ruling saying, "Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and others. The Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, yet my client and all other atheists have no such holiday."
The judge leaned forward in his chair saying, "But you do. Your client, counsel, is woefully ignorant. The calendar says April 1st is April Fools Day. Psalm 14:1 states,'The fool says in his heart, there is no God.' Thus, it is the opinion of this court, that if your client says there is no God, then he is a fool. Therefore, April 1st is his day. Court is adjourned."

All BullChips. 🤣
