truefusion 3 Report post Posted April 3, 2008 There is just nowhere near enough evidence to start assuming there is a God.There is plenty of evidence. But if your disbelief comes from lack thereof, then my belief can also come from lack thereof: a lack of contradictory evidence. The argument "there is not enough evidence" is not sound enough to be used, especially since it's self contradicting. You're saying "not enough evidence." This implies that there is some evidence to believe in a Higher Being. People one does not become atheist, one is born atheist.People are not born as atheists, people at birth are incapable of thinking for themselves; therefore you're making the decision for them. Atheism is a self-proclamation. Unless you're defining the word "atheist" as "one who cannot think for themselves," then, by this (your) definition, they are atheists. But, surely, you won't agree to this kind of defintion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
