You didn't. The reality of the situation is, it's not worth the effort to point out the many flaws in your responses, hypocrisy, and other such ironies.My... my... my... looks like I hit a nerve....
You emblazoned your post with your own bigotry and hatred of those with differing views. I am content, you are the tormented one, that can't stand that others have views that don't align with yours... life must suck with such a myopic perspective.... trollYou didn't.

I mean, you saying "narrow little view of your world", but at the same time you are talking about how your father taught you ignorant and bigoted teachings, and you have accepted those as reality. Yet, you know nothing of my experiences and ideology, but you make these assumptions and talk ill of me. I'll be glad to send you a "Jump to conclusions Mat" for Christmas, if you'd like? I mean, you are so open-minded and I'm so flawed.
I can understand your hatred for anyone who has a different ideology than you. Daddy really did a number on you. Sort of like a preacher did on his congregation?
Poor guy!!!
Not sure why you have an issue with two words that have different meanings. That's not the problem of the term agnostic vs atheist, that's a personal problem.
Well we have evidence that intelligent life can exist. It exists here, so there's no massive bar to it existing elsewhere.
Wow, we have a regular little orange man right here. Twisting everything to suite their own narrative.You emblazoned your post with your own bigotry and hatred of those with differing views.

It feels like you have a personal issue with the fact that those two terms are different, because they have been explained but you won't accept that they have their own identity. I mean I could just post the literal definitions, but I suspect you will argue against those somehow:Didn't take long for you to turn things personal. Seems that self-styled agnostics are every bit as touchy as the hard-line believers.
Stop the fight, we're all the same.You emblazoned your post with your own bigotry and hatred of those with differing views. I am content, you are the tormented one, that can't stand that others have views that don't align with yours... life must suck with such a myopic perspective.... troll
If you are an elder and looked up to and wanted to control your flock one readily available tactic was to invent fictional characters with supernatural powers and threaten your flock with them. Enter religion, God, gods, what have you.<~~ agnostic atheist
To your question. it’s easy to come to the conclusion gods don’t exist as their is literally zero proof they do exist. At best you have badly written books by men who had zero knowledge we possess today. A 4th grader today probably has more knowledge than 99% of people did in zero AD. Bunch of nomads and shepherds who never travelled more than 5 miles from their place of birth. It was easier to attribute natural phenomena to a god who was angry for some reason.
I think it started out as plain old laziness.If you are an elder and looked up to and wanted to control your flock one readily available tactic was to invent fictional characters with supernatural powers and threaten your flock with them. Enter religion, God, gods, what have you.
That might work in a monastery, not so well otherwise. "Prayers plow not, praises reap not." - William BlakeI think it started out as plain old laziness.
"Grog, go out kill a deer; the kids are hungry."
"I'm busy."
"You're sitting on your ass, staring at the sky."
"I'm praying that the deer will return, very important work."
All Mai threads are troll threads. Some are more fun than others but every one of them is a troll thread.OP, did you create this thread with the intent of bringing out the inner neckbeard in the members of this board?
