Underlying Philosophy

Welcome I don't think you can find a fully philosophical explanation of morals or beliefs from people who don't have beliefs. I have little choice but to point toward science for explanations. There is none... atheist is simply defined as "not theist" or rather a person who doesn't have belief in a god or gods. This covers variety of people . Evolution explains some ideas that we hold as morals such as the sense of fairness. Not killing or stealing I would also point toward evolution as most social animals also instinctually "know. " not to do these things because it would cause problems in the social group. obviously it wouldn't be in the best interest of an individual to kill others who it depends on.Here is a study done that shows monkeys have a sense of fairness of treatment.http://news.nationalgeographic.com/...17_monkeyfairness.htmlMost other morals can be subjective however I personally look at it this way.Immoral: Anything that causes any kind of pain or suffering.

I do not have this belief you speak of. I wasn't aware there was such an authority. No I simply do not believe in this God Why do you believe this? A "feeling" will not mean anything to me so I do hope you can explain it without that description. That was the point the word atheist only tells you I don't believe in a god or gods it tells you nothing else about me or any other atheist. In the mind like any other idea or collectively as a species or a society. Laws serve the society's best interest as a whole they aren't based on morals.

Science is based on empirical evidence so logic based in science is based on empirical evidence.Correct me If I'm wrong but"faith" is based on feelings. How do you draw your entire belief and moral structure from a "feeling"?

We didn't it's both an evolved trait and a social evolving trait. Humans are a social species language evolved as the species evolved and got more complex as societies and more complex social structures came into being. Why do you assume me as an atheist has never read the Bible? I disagree. I think Evolution , social interaction , and societies advancing explain it well. I know the Bible very well.... I don't believe a word of it

Why is it that they all assume everyone most have central beliefs? Why is everyone categorized?

I do not recall him making this claim.
where are you getting "made up?" The concept of logic is in our minds but the concept is based on evidence Why do you believe this? What possible reason do you have to believe this? Reading the Bible has not done this for me. I don't get a feeling...Is there any other rational you have for this belief of yours? as is the entire concept of God....

I was a Christian once realized that it was a delusion in my mind much like the delusion that my first love was destiny. I wanted it to be true so in my mind it was. I do not see design. I would like you to explain why you believe it was designed. I would like to point out that complexity is not proof of design. funny how these very things are why I don't believe Are you sure it's not in your head?. like I said I once had an eye-opening experience that told me my love for her was destiny. Like most first loves it was delusion created by desire.

I ran your post into another I apologizeEdited by DC85, : No reason given.

Not only is that list a pile but if you continue making bold assumptions I will consider you one as well. Don't tell me where I am and what I believe because your mind can't conceive a world without absolute beliefs

Start a new thread and I will destroy every assertion . Edited by DC85, : No reason given.

@IchiBango away wingnut troll, You have no desire to debate or to have us understand your position. You're only here to annoy people and I sure in your small mind you find it funnyedit:I'm sorry to everyone else who I interruptedEdited by DC85, : No reason given.

@IchiBanYour examples have no basis beyond your mind and are not relevant to the topic at hand. If you make assertions you have to back them up. If you want to discuss these things start a topic.Coyote is justified in calling you or your list a steaming pile as you have attacked him personally. It would be the same as him making false assertions about you with no way to back it up.Why are you so angry?

Why should we respect anything you say when you plagiarized everything from this website.HugeDomains.comIt appears you aren't even capable of creating and rationalizing your own arguments.

Why don't you drop yours?there goes that crap anti"elitist" mentality that cons seem to have. We know something or may even simply believe something you don't and some how that makes us arrogant. Instead of trying to understand that you have this bizarre psychosis that these people are attacking you when the reality is you're attacking them and they may simply be defending themselves. It isn't a message or truth they appear to be baseless assumptions.Why should I ever listen to a Christian if one won't listen to me? We have many creationists we have civil debates with on this board now and in the past. I have respect for these people while not having respect for the belief. If they attack us.... well it seems only fair to call them on it and some may bite back.If you want to discuss specifics start a new topic other wise you're trolling. We're here to discuss not for YOU to falsely tell us what we believe.

perhaps we can understand what you're asking if you explain how you have come to assert that a the existence of a supreme being defines your truths? Please answer this.
