How can one know there is no god
anywhere in the universe at any time?
By being everywhere at
once. Ergo, by being god.
Then there are idiots like woman that
called Mark and Ed show this week to say that religion is the cause of so many
deaths in the history of the world. She
seems to overlook the 200 million
deaths in the 20th century alone by atheistic regimes and
totalitarian states.
The real problem here for atheists
who would attack religion for its cruelties to human beings: the reason atheistic religions have killed
several hundred million in the 20th century is because for THEM to
kill is to act out their religious belief that human life is a mere accident
and has no meaning or significance.
On the other hand, when
Judeo-Christians have killed innocents, this has been in direct opposition to
their convictions and values. At least
the religious have a basis for complaining about or condemning the slaughter of
innocents, whereas the atheist can only say, “I really wish you would not do
that.” Of course, one way for the
atheistic dictator to deal with that complaint is just kill you too. Then what you wish would no longer be a
problem.
