Aren't you the one trying to portray yourself as a communist? Now you suddenly want us to believe you're a goddite (since I don't know your religion of choice).

That's because most video links around here tend to be an absolute waste of time, I've stopped following links to Youtube for a while now. At least with text you can quickly skim through and check if it's worth reading or not.

Atheism is the belief that God/Gods dont exist, and since they have no answer to how we actually came into existance it is a belief.

No. Atheism is the lack of a belief. I do not believe that there is no god, and neither can I ever 'know' in the sense that you can not 'know' that there isn't a white raven somewhere.

We have very little proof of the big bang(besides the galaxies moving away), and thus, you believe, not know that theory is correct.
And even if it was correct, what came before? nothing? Then was matter just created? If so, you just nullified some principles..... If it wasnt created and simply a never ending cycle then you just nullified the second law of thermodynamics.
Fact of the matter is people arent smart enough to "know" yet, so one must draw in the blanks and believe.

Atheism = a belief that there is no god. The word itself has two components: "a", meaning without. "theism" meaning "God". Therefore Atheism literally means "without God". Atheists believe that the universe is "without God", or that God does not exist. Some might say that you could extend this to include any supernatural entity or religious belief, such as shamanism or druidism. If you talk to an atheist about religion they will make the claim "there is no God".
What you are thinking about is probably agnosticism, which is the belief that it is impossible to know whether God exists or not. As with atheism, there are two components to this word: "a" meaning without, and "gnosticism" meaning "knowledge". Agnostics believes that it is futile to assert that one person is "right" about religion and that another person is "wrong". If you talk to an agnostic about religion, they will say "there might be a God, but there might not. I don't know, and I won't unless proof is provided to me which is unlikely considering the nature of a being which transcends science, space and time."

So then, give me indisputable proof that the big bang happened and tell me what happened beforehand and ensure they dont conflict with any current scientific laws.

In a singularity the laws of physics aren't valid so one can not know nor predict what can happen in one. Before the big bang there wasn't time or at least none in the sense that we know and causation requires time. Yeah, we probably can never know what exactly happened around the big bang, but a being that has 'always been there, sees all, knows all etc.' and 'transcends' the laws of physics isn't any more likely.

You answered your own question, "we can never know what happened around the big bang".... If one doesnt know but thinks its true anyways that is known as a belief.
Actually a christian would tell you that the world is simply a test of one's character, and God does not wish to meddle with man's free will and thus since we are sinful in nature the world is a harsh place.
Fact of the matter is you dont know, and if you think something happened without proof then its a faith based thing and is considered a religion in its own right.

I will never claim to know what happened and I will not profess my opinion on it because its rather insignificant coming from someone without a reasonable physics background. I'm just saying that us not knowing about the big bang doesn't change anything about there yes or no being a god.
So no, its not faith based, and its not a religion.

Sure it is, lets break this down.
1)big bang. a)A hypothesis of what happened to cause us to be, no proof can be given because we arent smart enough yet. b)We dont know what happened beforehand to cause it, we can only speculate. c)Makes sense to a select group of people.
2)christianity. a)A hypothesis of what happened to cause us to be, no proof can be given because that entity cannot be seen or heard and we arent smart enough to contact him. b)We dont know what made him create us, we can only speculate. c)Makes sense to a select group of people.
You dont know whether or not there is a god, you just want to believe that we came from nothing based on a hypothesis that could quite possible be incorrect to begin with.
Sounds like a religion to me.

1)So how did scientists basically come to the conclusion through experimentation that something exploded and we came into being, the explosion defies physics itself and the understanding isnt in place? The big bang atm is a hypothesis, just the same as God.... Its a an explanation based on an educated guess.
2)Funny a person that belongs to a minority(atheism is the minority on this country)says it makes sense to normal people.
3)The proof to the bigbang cannot be seen or spoken to, so ummmm.... Didnt you just call yourself stupid?
4)I can just as easily say you close your eyes to any other idea but atheism.... And by the look of your posts this seems as though is the case.
5)That comic is your proof?

It's amazing (and I've seen this before) how someone will aggressively denounce existance of a 'god' throughout their life. Yet when given hours/days to live, will cowardly start praying and asking for forgiveness.

1)Lets lookup the work normal shall we?
"In behavior, normal refers to Joseph Gregory or a lack of significant deviation from the average." and the average person is a part of the masses.
2)You are basically pointing out that christianity is"stupid"when in reality both dont have a solid foundation(how we were created)besides a hypothesis.
3)So you thought it was absurd, but science claiming that physics went out the window in our creation doesnt? Sorry but to me this seems like its the pot calling the kettle black.

Theres a difference between knowing and believing.... While evolution has a basis in science and has a decent amount of proof, the big bang surely does not.
Dont label people, I am not a part of any mainstream religion nor do I enjoy speaking about the subject, but when somebody calls somebody else an idiot for believing that something incredible happened when we were made, something that there is no established scientific law to back against I dont get very happy.
Oh and before you say it, religion doesnt make people kill one another, people twist religion so that it does... But before you say"well we should just abolish religion then" man can do this with anything including science(take a look at nuclear weapons and manufactured disease).

Atheism is no more a "belief" than the belief that there is not a white unicorn above your head. Atheism, unlike religions, does not provide an explanation for anything or provide any sort of moral code or value systems. It is an assertion and to expect "God doesn't exist" to then go on to explain how and why everything is as it is is asking too much of it.
What are you trying to get at anyway? Christianity does have an answer to how we came into existence, does that make it not a belief?
P.S. Let's please not equate the scientific method of explaining the unknown with a religious method. __________________________________

Evolution is a scientific fact. Religion has been proven wrong on the account of how human beings came to be along with several thousand other claims about the world made in the bible (old and new testament) that have been proven wrong.
Science doesn't know exactly what happened during the big bang..not *yet* but it has a solid track record of beating religion on matters regarding reality so who knows what the future brings.

Atheism is no more a "belief" than the belief that there is not a white unicorn above your head. Atheism, unlike religions, does not provide an explanation for anything or provide any sort of moral code or value systems. It is an assertion and to expect "God doesn't exist" to then go on to explain how and why everything is as it is is asking too much of it.
What are you trying to get at anyway? Christianity does have an answer to how we came into existence, does that make it not a belief?
No I am getting at that science cannot explain where we all came from, and in of that it makes it just as absurd as christianity.
Mainstream atheists answer questions such as where did we come from? With the bigbang, and I am simply pointing out that such things are indeed just absurd as the religious reasoning.

Indeed! Who knows what the future brings? But at the moment the big bang is placed in the same track as religion in being an absurd hypothesis that has limited if any proof to back it up.

Mainstream atheists use science to answer questions. Lets first of all not confuse atheism with science, as one is a standpoint (or belief, whatever) about reality, whereas the other is a rigorous process used to carefully examine and explain reality. I don't find the big bang theory absurd at all. I don't want to come in here and be like "well duh if you dont understand science of course you'll think its just as absurd as religion," but it really looks like what you're saying is that since neither religion nor science can explain the unknowable (DUH, thats why it's the unknowable), they're both equally absurd.

I think he locked a thread just like this with the line "Ironically, discussions about atheism are not allowed on the boards either."

I'll just leave this here. __________________________________

1)Actually its a 50-50 chance that God exists or not, mainly because of the whole proof thing(I am trying to avoid being redundant).
2)Its a decent hypothesis, but until a hypothesis is proven its still just a hypothesis.
3)Yeah I was wondering when he would lock this one, this is definately worse then the other thread he locked.
4)I cant wait until that is inspace and humming along! Personally I would like to see proof to the bigbang and I hope science can prove me wrong, but until that ya know(redundant).
