Born Hunter 17,763 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Because the topic is more profound than the existence of God or a god. The topic is fundamentally about our origins and the Universe. God is more than the topic of discussion, God is a stand point in the argument of our existence and so often becomes the topic of discussion. That is why people who do not believe take such interest.... Edited November 6, 2014 by Born Hunter 1 Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,111 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Would i be right in thinking Aethiests dont even entertain the thought of a God ?.....ie,they feel no need to prove/disprove the existence of a thought they dont even entertain ?....in which case what is there to talk about ?...........i thought thats what being an Aethiest was all about maybe im wrong ? Would it not be like me constantly talking about a 3 headed alien living in my loft.....why would i keep talking about something i have no desire to prove one way or the other ?

Born Hunter 17,763 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) If we were just talking about whether some supernatural being that has no effect exists or not then yes, but we're not. The entire reason for the existence of a god is as a creator and master so the foundations of this whole debate is really our origins and the fundamentals of our Universe, of which god is one explanation. So this debate is no different to any other debate with conflicting beliefs. And anybody interested in the truth of our origin would like to find the truth behind the god hypothesis.... but most intelligent folk realise it's a fruitless task....

delswal 3,819 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Tunnel visioned worriers sums it up for me ( It, being the belief of an almighty creator with the promise of an afterlife). We, humans, are nothing more than another species on this planet who have evolved to the stage we are at today. We live and die just like any other organic matter we share this planet with, the very fact we are the ultimate predator and the top of the food chain does not give us the benefit of an after life, we convince ourselves of that (well I don't ) for the simple reason being, we cannot accept the fact that when we die that's it, game over.

frazdog 252 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Thats your opinion del an i respect that,but as you know i stated vehmentley the evidence for a creator an ive searched for evidence of evoloution an honestly it falls apart at the seems lad if you think your an animal thats up to you but do you not think that leaves the door wide open for humans to treat each other as animals ?
