That's what some kid in my class said when another person told him I was atheist (He was going around telling everybody after I told him,like it was one of my secrets or something).I was about to say that it's bullshit but recess ended after that and I had to go back to class.It honestly amazes how stupid some people can be,they act like they know the entire concept of Atheism . rolleyes
His reasoning was atheist believe if you can't see it,it's not there

Let me guess, is this the whole "can't see the wind but you can feel it" argument?
Tell them with special camera's, you can see the wind. There's a special type of camera (I forget what it's called, but it was used on Timewarp) that makes the components of our air visible. And since wind can be scientifically proven correct (through the pulling of gravity, magnetic poles, molecules, etc.) AND artificially created indoors, logically the reasons we understand wind is through the very medium most atheists use.
Science.
Which is also the medium that helps disprove the factuality of certain unsaid religions.
Which is shunned by most religions as a form of lies.


By that logic, If you believe in wind you must not be religious.
Because its been proven scientifically.

Thanks,that was brilliantly explained and I would love to say that to him.The problem is most people who try to get on for being atheist don't listen when I try to disprove their obviously wrong points rolleyes it get's really annoying. Nonetheless though,I will try to say it to him.

Is he comparing his beloved God to the air he puts in his lungs?

Even by religious standars, that is illogical.

I'm really getting sick of stupid people. Seriously, is it too much to ask people to think before they say something?

Wow, here I believed in wind this whole time, guess I should go and start praying agian....not, people are ignorant, and people who believe ignorant things like, "Believe this or else you burn in a fiery pitt for all eternity," will believe more ignorant things that come along

I wouldn't even bother with that statement...


" OH! I see where you are getting at...God is the wind. OF COURSE we can't prove of this all-creating wind. Because, obviously, you can't see it or know how it exists. "

I mean, Jesus Christ, ( The one with no power... ) there is something wrong with people these days... NO common sense what-so-ever?

Common sense went out the door with the man living in the fish and the guy talking to a burning bush dood. Still think hippies have something to do with the bible's design....

That explains a lot.
Everyone must be too high on PCP to think.

Just tell him that wind is quantifiable. God is not. We can prove wind exists. Unless he doesn't know what "quantifiable" means. rolleyes

We can pick air up and move it around. If we push it, we get wind, and if we put coloured dust in the air, we can see the wind. We cannot do any of that to God.

I see ignorance a lot at my school.
quantifiable is a word I 'm pretty positive he doesn't know.
I'm sure if I tried to tell him that god is in no way like wind he would get all on me "For not respecting other peoples religion".
