As a fellow agnostic , I wouldn’t be trying to , if it could be scientifically proven then it wouldn’t be a belief. Some believers point at the Big Bang theory as “pointing” to the existence of god , 14 billion years ago , blah blah but what inspired the Big Bang? They go on to explain how the forces and constants of the universe that promote or make life possible could not just ‘ be there ‘ as per Stephen hawking , “ a brief history of time “
However , largest majority of believer’s aren’t even interested in the science we have pointing to a gods existence or the lack of actual scientific proof of ! their belief is born , pure and simply of FAITH ! , motivated by other or more personal energies giving their lives meaning , direction a calmness about the end of their life or the life of a loved one , how to deal with despair , addiction , trauma , etc. Believing gives them a shot at the afterlife , not believing means your going to the “other” place. , the body dies but where does the “soul” go …… and so many more ways people feel compelled to belief of have faith !!

Me , well I could point to a few things here. Injustice , the existence of evil , pain and suffering , natural disasters , disease , famine … want all powerful would design or allow a world / existence like this? But the reality is that is that as an atheist I don’t disbelieve in god or deny a gods existence I just don’t believe there is one.

The below quote from Ricky Gervais sums up my thoughts almost exactly

“As an atheist, I see nothing “wrong” in believing in a God. I don’t think there is a God, but belief in him does no harm. If it helps you in any way, then that’s fine with me. It’s when belief starts infringing on other people’s rights when it worries me. I would never deny your right to believe in a God. I would just rather you didn’t kill people who believe in a different God, say. Or stone someone to death because your rulebook says their sexuality is immoral. It’s strange that anyone who believes that an all-powerful all-knowing, omniscient power responsible for everything that happens, would also want to judge and punish people for what they are”

Atheism: calling yourself a champion of truth while gutting yourself of the metaphysics necessary to impose a duty to believe the truth. It is a  self-defeating  ideology. Why should you believe in science, math, beauty, love, music, art or moral codes if God doesn't exist? They're all arbitrary chemical reactions in your brain. 2nd law of thermodynamics dictates that all will eventually perish in the heat-death of the universe. Your purpose as an atheist,  should you choose to accept it  is to eat, procreate, die. No, you don't get to  "create your own meaning"  as some modern atheists posit.  Relentless nihilism  is the only rational conclusion. Why believe in something you don't even want to win at? I know what you'll say, ' "Sky Daddy"  isn't real, you're making an argument from ignorance.' Okay, so you were there for the Big Bang? Everyone makes arguments from ignorance, no single person could hold ALL the knowledge it would take to know exactly how we got here. No bigger culprit of this than  Charles Darwin . What we can observe now is that nature holds irreducible complexity that Darwin wouldn't have dreamt of, if he had an  electron microscope or a James Webb telescope  at the time of his writing Origin of Species and the Decent of Man.  (Easily one of the most racist books in existence.)  All that to say, you may not agree with Jesus and the Christian version of God,  (though it is arguably the most compelling as far as purpose of humanity ) it's a tough sell believ ing we all got here  from goo to you via the zoo .

I wish you well. Raised Christian here, went pagan from high school through after college, and now am simply agnostic. If you are determined to not believe in a Creative Force or Power, nothing anyone says will convince you. All I know and can share to help you if you want to look are several “miracles” that happened in my life as a child and a guiding force that helped me and my siblings avoid coming to greater harm. First was when I was maybe six ao mid to late 1970s. My mother had a tubal miscarriage and it caused an infection. Nothing the doctors did would bring down her fever or completely eliminate the infection. Her fever was so high her blood was coagulating in her body and the hospital was running out of her blood type after more than two weeks. My dad was told she was going to go into a coma and die. I prayed alone in my room, asking more for my dad and my little sisters, promising to not fight with them as much if my mom could just be made better. Old house, sticky bedroom door, and a dad filled with his own grief at the other end of the hall. My door never opened, but a presence was felt and an unknown voice that said “Don’t worry, your mother will be coming home to you soon.” My mom was home within a week. Second, my dog a few years later got a fatal case of heart worms. Vet said he had maybe six months. Medicine would simply kill the worms and cause him heart failure as the worms had destroyed much of his heart. My mom, sisters, and I prayed over that dog for an hour or more every day for a couple of weeks. Dog lived another five years.

It's no one's obligation to try to convince you of something you don't believe it. Religion is a personal journey and experience. The burden of whatever you choose or don't choose is on your own shoulders, kid. It's up to you to research and figure it out.

How can God not exist? How did human beings get created? By chance? The intricate details of the human body couldn’t just happen by accident. The fact that when we look at the solar system it was perfectly positioned to maintain life. If earth was 200 ft closer to the sun we would have died on earth from heat, few hundred feet away further from the sun we would have probably not been able to sustain life as the world population keeps growing. The fact that fruits, vegetables, crops, water and other resources is still sustained on earth millions of years later, yes farmers help with crop production but many religious verses mentions the sustenance on earth but also highlighting civilization of the past, present and future where many verses relate to “oh you who believe, X-passage”. There are people who are accepting different religions, mostly the Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) of one God, because people want answers of life - why are they here, what’s the purpose of life, what makes life meaningful/beautiful? I often here people say well if God existed why would bad things occur? This life is a test, it’s a different test for all. A woman could be blessed with beautiful looks but she sells her body online to make money that’s a test for her because she is committing an act of sin where the rule of law from God exists. A person life Stephen Hawking was one of the most brilliant human beings ever, yet he was an atheist never believed in God, although he was intelligent and blessed with smarts that’s his test. You look at the Israel-Palestine genocide by Israel, proclaiming they are God’s chosen people of the land. Which is false because current day so called Jews who sold their morals and values of the Torah became Zionists, a political ideology derived in Europe. People have so much faith in politicians but did God create those wars or human beings? So often God states be kind, help others, break bread and share not break bones. Often at times people will say oh those books have so much violence to hurt others! Yes if battle is needed by a tyrant. This world is simply a test, if man assumes he can rape 100 women and kill 100 people and not have repercussions by God because they beat the system on earth, they will be judged for their actions and punished in hell. If someone went through hardships but had strong faith in God, like the poor.  It’s amazing that many people of faith are also in third world countries, they have less then us and yet their faith is so strong and I commend them and respect them for that and I hope God blesses those good souls and they will go to heaven for eternity.

AMS700CX4u2 · Answer

Dish Lady gave a good response. Nothing is provable, It is something that is gained through experience when coincidence seems impossible. I don't believe in spontaneous generation but I have a much broader concept of what could have created this universe. A man can not describe what he does not have the vocabulary or knowledge to describe. Many biblical excerpts are through the eyes of people who were counting sheep by by tossing rocks in a dried goats stomach. Humans seem to be looking for an absolute answer, one that is not an interpretation of prehistoric opinions. Something did this. maybe it did not look like Charlton Heston, but It had to begin and I guess have an end. I am sure what ever force was in play would not be happy with the things that have happened in "its name", assuming that the creative force keeps track of us. Don't know, Remember that what has evolved as Religion seems to be more destructive than the creative force would have wanted. Frankly, if "He" does exist , and I think He does, I believe at this point He is disappointed. .

sawno · Answer

Its not my job to convince, my beliefs are not like that since I don't believe I should convert or that me trying to convince you is the right way. We can have a discussion of course but I believe they intentionally never gave me proof that can convince someone else. You need the freedom to make your mind up.

What I like to do instead is speculate on what I think is most likely. I used to be agnostic and then I received proof angels exist when I asked for proof. But the proof was personal and not designed to be shared, anyone else can easily dismiss it as coincidence and thats by design. She used a very earthly term describing herself as my "co-pilot high up". So I know I have an angel, but I know nothing else. It confirms no religion thats out there, again in my beliefs by design.

All I can say is if you have a genuinely open mind to where you can be convinced, and your meant to know. Ask and you shall receive. But its very likely that you won't get a response or fail to notice the response / dismiss it. Its very subtle.

Finchie40 · Answer

Religion is something only you can decide on whether you want to believe in it or not. It’s your choice and your decision. I can write ya a book on why I believe in God but no matter what, it comes down to whether you want to believe it or not. No one can force religion on you , just like no one can force you to Love them. We all have freewill to make our own decisions and choices in life. So it’s up to you on whether you want to put your faith into God and accept him as your savior and open your heart to God and trust in God. For a long time I didn’t believe in God and religion , until I decided to go to Church and actually listened and learned about God and the Bible , I felt like by me actually going to church and actually listened , I felt like the church service was meant for me. It was the craziest thing and I was blown away from it , to the point I gave it another shot and decided to put my faith in God and accept him as my savior. By opening myself up to God things in my life started to change for the better. I am no holy roller whatsoever but opening myself heart to God has helped me see things through a different light and I realized I was lost by not having faith in God. All I can tell you is only you can choose to accept it or not , it’s your life and your choice. I also rather live my life knowing my life is going to continue after I pass away instead of everything just turning black and turning to nothing. Also I lost loved ones that were on their death bed and everyone of them said they saw Angels and God before taking their last breath. Another reason I choose to believe.

You are here aren't you? There is an Earth. There are 1.3 x 1050 atoms in the earth. There is matter, granite, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, carbon, iron, silicon, sulfur... all of these elements on and UNIMAGINABLE scare. The earth is so vast that it is roughly 24,000 miles/40,000 KM. The sun has so much mass and collections of these elements and matter that 1.3 million earths could fit into the sun. Some stars dwarf our sun. There are 200 billion trillion stars in the universe. There is so much matter that our minds cannot even conceive of it.

Where did it come from. How did nothing create everything? How is everything here?

Life just doesn't spring out of nothing. How did all of these living things spring out of nothing. It is said there was a "primordial soup" and that a single cell creature sprang up in that. Since when does life just spring out of nothing? How did the soup come to be?

Every living thing has a DNA code, a message of knowledge of how every cell will be arranged. Knowledge... a coded message. Coded knowledge doesn't just naturally spring up and evolve. If someone carves their initials into a tree you know someone had to do that. The carved message didn't evolve.

DNA is the most complex messages ever. Only an intelligent mind can create intelligent messages and info.

If you want to believe the entire universe just sprang up from nothing and DNA just created itself... then this saying is true of you: "The fool has said in his heart that there is no God."

Sister! At 34, your biological clock ticks louder than a MILF’s TikTok thirst trap, yet who knit your womb but the Lord? Those “hot girl walks” you take? They’re divine parables! The bounce of a BBW’s sanctified caboose mirrors the rhythm of Creation—Psalm 139:14 screams “I am fearfully and wonderfully made” as you scroll OnlyFans wildfires!

The Lord sees your search history: “Christian yoga pants ASMR” and “Psalm 91 prayer for thicker thighs.” Every thirst trap you set drowns in the Jordan River of His truth: “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting” (Proverbs 31:30), but a PAWG’s repentance?

OneViewpoint · Answer

No, I can't make any serious argument for any "God" or "Goddess". The whole thing is stupid. Deities and religions are created for 3 reasons.

1.) People fear the unknown and religions provide (false) answers to the darkness and the boogeyman.

2.) Some people have discovered that the majority can be controlled by manipulating their fears and promising them a pathway to avoid death or eternal damnation... if they just do as they are told. It's a control mechanism that doesn't require much investment.

3.) The control mechanism provides an excellent pathway to gain wealth and power over large populations who can never question the status quo without risking going straight to Hell. Which doesn't actually exist.

Religion is the best scam that humanity has ever developed. And it works!

MisterWack · Answer

The thing that I find is,

We don’t know exactly how the Universe began except ‘The Big Bang’ though technically God could’ve programmed this Universe with certain rules, properties, limitations, and physics just like how a ‘game developer’ creates a world.

With this, I’m not saying God exists. What I am saying is, we don’t know how the Universe came to be so could be God though I personally don’t believe that. I’m saying this since a lot of people play sides with science / religion. Science is based on facts & experiments to test the validity of certain theories, religion is faith based on a book believed to be written from their God as a sign of enlightenment and key to eternal happiness. Simple as that, you can have happiness and learn how the Universe works in its complex systems. You do you and you believe what you believe & strive to learn more.

yummyJoe · Answer

Convincing you depends on what kind of proof you seek—logical, experiential, or scientific. Logically, the universe operates with such precision (laws of physics, fine-tuning for life) that many argue it points to intentional design. Experientially, countless people claim personal encounters with a higher power. Even scientifically, some physicists entertain the idea that a mind could precede matter. But ultimately, belief isn’t about winning an argument—it’s about what resonates with your understanding of reality.

I'm agnostic atheist, but for me the existence of God simply doesn't matter.
If there is Creator than they have designed me perfectly to go on about my life.
Also this all-knowing, all-powerful Creator would never have a requirement or need for me to worship them, like say a cult leader would need. That would be like a sculptor creating perfect Play-Doh figurines and the figurines worshipping the sculptor.

RHK36 · Answer

This is a pointless question. It would be equally silly by responding, convince me that God doesn't exist. The whole point of religion is to have faith and belief in it. That's the opposite of needing proof. There's a reason why many scientists still don't rule out existence of a God. I'm not religious or atheist. I don't think there's enough information to say otherwise nor is there a need to. We'll never live long enough to find out.

Nobody need to get convinced over things that can't be proven as fact. It is belief, faith, that one have for themselves. Religion or spirituality is for self.

The way I settled it with myself is that the existence of God cannot be proven nor can it be disproven, so the question is irrelevant. Religion has wasted more of humanity's precious time, effort and especially lives than anything else that I can think of. Put your efforts into something worthwhile instead.
