Oh please. The humanities will never die because then we’ll cease being humans. If we can’t think without looking at the world like an equation then we’re no better than robots

How exactly do you make them seeth? The atheists on this board are considerably more level head than one you find on Reddit, but making substantial claims such as “ oh man Jesus was the answer all along” and not providing a single ounce of reasoning as to why would make anyone question your stance. An atheist can have a reason as to why he doesn’t believe in god without it being anecdotal (though it may sometimes be a bad reason) however the Christians on this board advertises the Bible like a 2 week workout plan that “ if it worked for me it’ll work for you” levels of credibility. Mind you, I’m sure Christianity has helped you in life, but to protest that it was the end all be all of philosophy and using a story of surviving a car crash as proof will get you laughed out the door

Because of the Big Bang. And if people can believe in a giant magic man in the sky that watches over you the idea of the universe just becoming is not that far fetched.

I guess my comparison with physics does seem drastic, but simply say “these people think it’s the truth means it’s the truth” is dumb. Obviously you can believe that something is god given and die defending that idea, but that doesn’t make it true. People can be wrong about what’s true and what’s not, but what’s good and bad is based off of the person’s emotions. Morals are just opinions people have, and although they are certainly entitled to them, their opinions can never be facts.

Do you think every great writer who ever lived died knowing the guy who wrote the bible was and always will be the greatest writer of all time by an insurmountable margin.
