If anybody tries to call you square
You just look 'em in the eye, tell 'em you don't care!
If you don't want to be a crazy fool
You better study real hard and stay in school!

This could be fun Chuck.

I'll bite.

No, in fact, I'm a complete atheist. I deny the existence of any god. To me, believing in a god is like believing in santa or the tooth fairy only far more dangerous: Santa never started any wars nor did he cause hatred, war etc.

So, what are you going to do about it?

Hi,
I won't get in the "if God exists why are so many people unhappy or why are people killing other people" debate, I'm tired of this.
The facts are: God never started a war, people started them, this has to do with the only thing God can't do: act against our free will. If you want to kick your neighbour then go but don't blame God for it, He never asked you to do it and He doesn't like it when you do it (but He still loves you).

Vincent.

so an omnipotent, allpowerful god cannot affect the free will of one single human being? That sounds like a bitch job to me.

Bjorn-The Atheist's argument is valid, but how do you explain the creation of the universe?

Andy-Very interesting. But wouldn't the fact that God or the force of God, being omnipotent, not be constrained by time and space seeing as how he created it?
