Alright, this is sort of in response to Podo's (monster's) "feeble attempt" thread.
I'm an atheist. I don't believe in the existence of any god whatsoever. Any questions? ![]() |

QUOTE(NoSex) Deism bores me - it's also sort of a dead movement. On one instance, I can't imagine how people, today, make the transition from theist to deist without, instead, stepping a few more feet into the realm of atheism. Deism is, supposedly, a scientific decision - it removes the more supernatural and unbelievable aspects of traditional theism. However, though impersonal and often apathetic - the god of deism is still a god. Given the scientific atmosphere of today I fail to really see the appeal of deism but for a comfortable transition between theism and atheism. I made a similar transition myself. Before denouncing god altogether, I imagined that he might just not be like anything described in the Bible. But, I still had no basis for such a belief - though I had removed the more outlandish and immediately fairy-tale-esq aspects of religious belief, I still believed in something for which there was no evidence. At that point my deism had blurred into atheism, eventually disappearing altogether. How would you explain the unexplainable? Something not yet proven by science? i have more to ask but ill edit later, time crunch! |
