Why do so many atheists have this rudimentary childish understanding and portrayal of God?

[Anonymous]

seriously... there's so many atheists these days stuck in their old ways of thinking that Christians believe God to be a magic sky daddy living in the clouds

even the most prominent atheist today Alex O'Connor has evolved his way of thinking but these other arrogant smug atheists are no different than the Bible thumpers whom they're supposedly so much more smarter and superior to...

nah you're just the same but stubborn in the other direction and even more close-minded

if Heaven is in the skies, then Hell is where shit in a toilet goes to lol

yet so many atheists say God isn't real because there's no magic sky daddy... yeah no shit Sherlock we know there's no magic sky daddy... stop basing your idea of God on the Simpsons

I'm not religious myself and even I know Christians don't believe God is a magic sky daddy living in the clouds but an infinite conscious beyond mortal comprehension... now maybe they don't believe God is an infinite conscious beyond mortal comprehension but it sure as hell ain't some white robe wearing wizard

a magic sky daddy living in the clouds would get his butt kicked by Superman or Goku in a fight but an infinite conscious beyond mortal comprehension would just blink Superman or Goku outside of existence...

yeah Christians totally believe the universe was made by someone living in the clouds

even then these atheists will believe in aliens, time travel and the possibility of superpowers but God is where they "draw the line" lmao because science can't prove God's existence...

well science can't even find a cure for cancer despite millions of dollars used to fund their research every fucking year... maybe they have but big pharma wants to profit off sick people

"God is a man-made fairy tale" you say? yeah so was the possibility of landing on the moon until it actually happened...

y'all believe in evolution without actually evolving yourself

Thank you brother you are a refreshing cup of water on this desert of an app. A person who claims there is no higher intelligent mind to all of this is more lost than anyone. I am a Christian but I won't force anything upon anyone, God has done things for me that is unexplainable, as God himself is unexplainable. My faith is at an all time high. Again just wanted to say something because atheists do just see what they want to see. I have infinite respect for agnostics of course I prefer them to see the truth that's there is a God but if I have to choose always agnostics over atheists because atheists are just lacking in all kinds of comprehension.

[Asker]

whether someone believes in God or not is one thing but at least know what Christians actually believe God to be and not some caricature of what you think Christians believe God to be

[Asker]

not talking about you specifically

[Sal_Monella]

I am disputing nothing that you are saying. But to me, G0d is like the Architect in the Matrix movie. He designed everything, He operates everything, And occasionally, He can make misjudgments. Like Hitler for example. G0d is omnipresent everywhere and every time concurrently. Although I love G0d, I appreciate that He can be a little bit like a kid in a room with an unlimited supply of toys.

He can do anything he wants. Any time he wants. With anything he wants. He created the greatest creatures in the history of the world. The dinosaurs. And then he said; Nah, I am done with that And hurled the Chicxulub meteor at the Earth. Word to the wise. Do not piss him off. Even though he made you in his image, cuz he can change his mind And then our descendants will look like Octopuses.

Wait, you don’t believe hitler chose, to do all that dvil?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

So… you’re both correct and incorrect. You’re correct in that atheists can often get caught up in their own dogmas to the point of arrogance and they don’t make for the most palatable company. You’re also incorrect in assuming your view of God, specifically Jehovah, is universal to all branches of Christianity. There are many protestant branches that do view Jehovah as a humanoid god that is much akin to themselves, while simultaneously maintaining perfection that humans can’t.

[Asker]

yeah no that's not the point

none of those portrayals of God is some wizard wearing a white robe in the clouds

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Actually, he is! Again, it depends on which branch you’re looking at but this is a version of him that is canonized in some branches of christianity. The first one I know is the LDS as they explicitly state that God has a flesh and blood body and looks like that.

[Asker]

that's his mortal human form before he transcended into omnipotence

not that the vast majority of Christians believe this is who God is anyway

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

You’re correct, this is not the usual interpretation of Jehovah in most churches.

[strateguy632]

They have it... from silly shallow adult cartoons... as you mentioned simpson family guy and more comedy series, But they write that way online, to mock and "make themselves feel superior " .

[jshm2]

The same reason flat-Earthers and antivaxxers think a 10 minute Youtube video is all the "research" they need.

These are people who peddle in opinions, not facts.

[contentious]

Because many atheists worship Sigmund Freud, a guy who was a homosexual pedophile crackhead.

[contentious]

Freud is where the entire sky daddy thing comes from. That how a guy hopped up on cocaine saw God as he spent massive amounts of time analyzing and defending child sexuality, homosexuality, and claiming women are the problem in society and all their problems stemmed from them not having a penis. Basically he was into child trannies.
