Atheists do better at IQ tests

Well I never met an atheist who said they did not believe in other life in the universe. After all, the universe is so vast and unknown and how could we be the only life out there?

However, God is completely out of the question? How is God so different from other life forms you believe exist out there? At best, you are an agnostic to other ...[text shortened]... t hate the God of the Bible is all. That is the rub.

Admit it. It is good for the soul. 😵

God is supernatural.

I think that's a sticking point for many.

So based on probability.

BTW, I think the Bible is silent (doesn’t address) whether life exists elsewhere in the universe, so if it does, that hardly disproves the existence of God or invalidates the Bible.

I'm fairly certain that other life in the universe doesn't really care about the Bible. Maybe they have their own Bible.

It is called evolution. If there is a virus or bacteria somewhere there must be intelligent life out there.

If one rejects God and accepts evolution then it is only natural to come to such a conclusion.

One doesn't have to reject God to believe that evolution is valid.

You totally missed my point.

Yes, out of all the trillions of planets in the universe, Earth is the only one that sustains life, and upon it, you Eladar, sitting there on your porch in your polyester cardigan are special and destined for eternal salvation.

Could be, I was replying to Eladar.

One has to reject the Bible to believe that. And the theory of evolution has significant - and I would argue fatal - flaws that atheists seem to never acknowledge. In a way, the theory of evolution is the atheists’ religion and the Origin of Species is their Bible.

Sick!

Google “Goldilocks zone,” Heartpence. The emergence of life without God is a lot more improbable than you seem to think.

Get smart!

Well, in my own opinion, most so-called Christians (No True Scotsman, anyone?) lose the narrow path when they refuse to love their neighbor as they love themselves.

Again, just sayin'.

Post-ante probability arguments are weak sauce, Heartworm.

This is why there is Reply & Quote.


Edit: Actually, you're right. I misread which post *you* were replying to. I'm sorry.
