When did you realize there is no god?

When did you realize there is no god?

Oh there's a god alright. Just not one anyone sane would like.

Hey OP

When did you realize you love smegma?

When I saw those weren't my legs in your picture.

When Costa Rica was allowed to become a country.

Primary school.

When you are not brainwashed from birth, god's non-existence is just as obvious as the tooth fairy's.

High school. Also, realizing that you don't believe in god is the most accurate way to describe it (not like how evangelicals say you just made the decision to be an atheist).

Proof that there is a god? Because no such evidence exists, no god exists.

When you showed up.

When I was 13. Then I realized I could never actually never know the answer, because it's irrational to make bold claims when no one has definitive evidence, it's all just logic arguments, which are inherently biased to whomever makes the argument. Guess I'll find out when I die

When I was 13. Then I realized that there probably is one when I was 19. I don't care how long you've got, a single celled organism is never going to end up as a walrus, or a tree, or a human. I think you might get small differences like the differences between dog breeds, or between humans, but you're not going to make the leap from one species to another, no matter how long you have.

never had to have that realization since im not an american

t. edgy atheist

I've been in the staunch anti-god area too. There are no atheists in foxholes my friend. The world is heading into a dark time, and you will find yourself appealing to any deity that listens, benevolent or otherwise. You may doubt in god, but you have faith, it's what makes you human. Smarter men than you have ceased their mental gymnastics for a second and found their way back to some higher moral system. Come out of the cold user. Also why aren't you at school?

Why are some people so eager to explain how much of a retard they are?

Fuck off you dirty abo. The tooth fairy is real. She gives me money when I leave here other people's teeth.

Exactly. You can have blind faith in multiple infinitesimally unlikely coincidences. Or you can believe in patient, intricate design by a creator that we can't understand, just like a mouse can't even get anywhere near geopolitics.

Both of these require reason and faith, but can't be proved.

There is only one god. Death.

Only retards just enter the "le religion is dum xD" phase in high school. Smarter people tend to enter it in 6th grade then finish it by junior year tops.

You fedora fools.

Most of you claim to reach God-ending realisations at the age of.... THIRTEEN?!!

Get a grip. Although it may be good because the strongest and most reverent Christians aren't the ones raised in the faith. But are instead the adults who leave their destructive atheist lifestyles behind in favour of a higher moral order. In time you will realise the error of your adolescent judgement. But until that time; may the Lord be with you, always.

Before I dropped acid

Have you been living under a rock death has been defeated by j.christ

It's funny that the same people who laugh at the idea that God turned dust into animals, think that it offends their intelligence if you question their notion that dust can turn itself into animals. I think it's the magic of "billyuns and billyuns of years" that confuses them, as though the impossible becomes possible if given enough time.

That guy bizarrely flexible

Amen brother.

I used to think there was no god, until i dreamed of Satan and experienced a poltergeist.

there is technically no proof that a god doesnt exist either...

But adults realize that you need extraordinary evidence for extraordinary claims.

Show proof your god exists outside of the bible. Because otherwise you are running off faith which is no different than hearsay

I tried to bargain for something back when I was a kid, and he didn't oblige.

Pretty much instantly. I wasn't stupid enough to believe in that bullshit even as a child.

Yeah, that's typically the argument I see, is that 'well you just don't get it because you can't comprehend how long the process takes'. But my thing is that I don't care how long you've got, you're never going to go from bacteria to a brachiosaurus. It's just illogical without some kind of hand pulling the strings.

around the time i found Sup Forums, so 13ish. I'm 22 now.

>But adults realize that you need extraordinary evidence for extraordinary claims.
see what i posted earlier

But thats not how evolution works.

he's penetrating another man's anus

>No proof God exists
>Call people retards for having faith that he does
>No proof God doesn't exist
>Use the exact same faith you condemn, but be on the "right side of history"

Ladies and gentlemen, the "enlightened". (((Science))) really did become the religion of the pseudo-intellectual.

I didn't explain how evolution works, I understand quite well how they claim it to work, and the more I learned, the less I believed. I assume you believe I meant to go directly from bacteria to brachiosaurus, in which case, you're retarded.

um no dude, he is just a flexible karateka, without proof your claim are moot, stop twistin a display of massive human dexterity into your degenerate views.

What did the poltergeist look like? I once saw a living shadow "man" skulk beneath a streetlight and disappear behind a tree

Most people worship the Demiurge as god.

You always wonder why life is bad and full of ugly evil things? Because its his world.

>my version of reality is based solely upon the wishing of others as though they were the ultimatum of what I am supposed to be.
>Therefore the whims of my ancestors, whether or not my ancestors were correct, must be the perfection and sense of identical belonging which I wish to pursue

T. easily convertible lefty cuckservative

But thats what you literally just conjugated , are you pair of clown shoes?

I was in its entirety sounds, I would think I was Schizophrenic but my sister and mother were besides me at the time, pretty much it mimicked my shady uncles voice and the other time he just went with a very creepy "AAAaaahh".

After having been told there was just one god, but noting that Santa Claus effectively had effectively the same attributes (all-seeing, ability to reward virtue and punish wrongdoing) and stopped believing in either at age maybe six.

>Remember the days when homosexuality was a punishable offence?
>Now the only people who think so are muslims, and now you can instantly watch lewd videos of men fucking each other up the ass whenever you feel like it.

In my late teens when I became really interested in science and particularly Astronomy.
I've realized our anthropocentric religions don't make sense at all.

Well, when I was younger I was more into the supernatural and I remember I didn't really believe in God or anything from our religions but it didn't seem so illogical.

I wasn't and I'm still not against the idea of a creator but it would be far from our stories made by humans for humans. I would not see "it" as a being and I wouldn't give him any human characteristic.

That's nothing. You think Jesus will save you when it's just a spiritual trap to kill your defences when the real shit starts.

RIP Panarama.

When I read the article about it.

WHO TOLD YOU MY LOCATION

>you're not going to make the leap from one species to another, no matter how long you have.
Do you think there were "leaps", burger? Is that what they teach you at school? A single cell just woke up a walrus one day?

>therefore God

Its almost like you don't know the difference between truth and extreme emotional stress, then cope with said emotional stress through traditional beliefs which are convenient.

But that's wrong. Claiming that there is no proof of god is not an extraordinary claim, nor is claiming that there is no proof that we all just didn't die one second ago and were reborn without realizing. Obviously no one can search every measurable unit of quantum foam in the universe. But if such a being was omnipresent then it surely should be detectable everywhere, correct? Unless you want to say that god is the universe, in which case that is only proof that the universe exists and not that the universe or anything else is god.

Again waiting on actual proofs from anyone who has it! By all means you would be rich and famous so bring it up, let's hear it

late elementary school, although i pretended all the way into early high school because i was afraid of dying

Unless you're taking what I'm saying literally like you have autism, you'd understand that I meant that bacteria is never going to end up as a dinosaur, no matter how it mutates, or what else it turns into, since I also doubt it could turn into anything else but a somewhat different kind of bacteria.

What I mean is that things like bacteria and single celled organisms are never going to end up as trees, octopuses, bears, or beetles, just like none of those things will ever end up as one another because that's just ridiculous. Like I said, you could have differences like dog breeds, and different races of humans, and different types of trees, but often, the difference between two organisms is too vast, and one will never end up like another.

Never believed in god in the first place. I'm not fucking stupid.

>the difference between two organisms is too vast
>based on my own subjective standards
yawn

Fucken dumb Americunt doesn't understand burden of proof.

The reading comprehension on this board is usually better than this. I meant you're never going to go from bacteria to walrus no matter how much the bacteria mutates and changes.

Why not? Do you even comprehend how long two billions years are?

...

>Claiming that there is no proof of god is not an extraordinary claim, nor is claiming that there is no proof that we all just didn't die one second ago and were reborn without realizing.

Strawman, your explanation does not defy the the dichotomy between the lack in evidence between either existence or non-existence fags.

>But if such a being was omnipresent then it surely should be detectable everywhere, correct?

No? Where does your source of omnipresence come from? Not only this, but every sect of Christianity has its own interpretation of this presence, how do you disclaim every interpretation?

>Unless you want to say that god is the universe

Well that is one theory

>Again waiting on actual proofs from anyone who has it!

There are none, same as atheists.

I don't think any god can protect you, Satan takes the form a frog much like Kermit.
Most of my family has affinity with some very creepy witchery, so I know the only way to stay safe is to protect yourself.
I only believe some good spiritual entities exist, or these evil creatures would have free reign.

>I have no concept of biology and time

And that's exactly the "argument" I named in a previous post. I don't care how long you've got, it just isn't going to happen. It's illogical.

You are wise to rely on yourself. Stop with the God bullshit.

The book of Job

>hurr durr suffering is all a part of god's plan; cuck yourself unto god and suffer

And Jesus saying to turn the other cheek

>let your enemies walk all over you and die before you can accomplish good in the world instead of fighting

>muh feels say it's impossible

>You cant ask for proof but i can!
>Saying there is a god is an extrodinary claim but saying there isnt is

This is why people think Americans are dumb

You ruin it for all the good ones...

>I don't think any god can protect you, Satan takes the form a frog much like Kermit.
>taking a subjective stance on the ebodiement of pure evil in monotheistic beleifs

Sure you are not schizophrenic? I am slightly psychefag.

No it isn't.
>I DUN MAKE SENSE TO ME
does make it objectively illogical. Do you also think the sun revolves around the earth? I mean, all you have to go on otherwise is a bunch of scientists. Visually all you see is the sun spinning around us.

Best answers in this whole thread. It's best to be a true agnostic and spend your life being the best person you can be while helping as many others as you possibly can. Even if there might not be anything past 'this' there is nothing wrong with trying our best to make the best of 'this' for everything and everyone.

test

When I realized religion is just a way of controlling the masses.

When I learned there are thousands of different religions, and most if not all claim theirs is the true and correct religion.

See Islam.

I didn't. I refuse to make assumptions about a Universe we are just barely beginning to grasp. I have a personal faith that all things moving within and out of our Universe are the constructs of existence and what is natural. I also believe these immutable laws were crafted by or are God.

Right when I saw picture you posted.

>HURHUR best answer is the one I agree with
Why Americuck why?

>One quote starts with "When I was 13..."
>Posts capeshit

Isn't it a little late for ironic shitposting?

There is a God. He just doesn't micro-manage.

>the pursuit of truth must therefore no longer be religious
>lets just ignore the collective unconscious and the traditional wisdom versus intelligence debate

Rly tingles muh neurons senpai.

I would think I was, but as a said before these poltergeists I've experienced where together with a group, that's the form Satan takes on my dreams, which is a completely different affair though.

I don't even know anymore. They say this religion is just invented by that religion. All religion claiming they are the real religion blah blah blah. It's all noise, but I've seen my fair share of supernatural and voodoo stuff, and I don't hallucinate, drink, do drugs or whatever. I think something might be out there. I'm just really not sure just what is what anymore.

I'm sorry I've failed you. Clearly I don't deserve to participate in such a high quality thread as this.

Well fuck. God is my turd. Great fucking tradition. What's your point?

When your picture happened to me when I was like 4 years old.
:(
Fucking faggot

About two years ago.

>This is what gays see during sex

Don't get it.

>God is every tradition

You drunk, m80?

>poltergeists

There have been rare cases of a collective hallucination, but those are beyond just rare. Are you remembering these events 100% correctly? If so, then there is an entire ontological /x/ tier debate on egocentricism, sanity, and religion.

>my dreams

mostly irrelevant, although dream can be interesting

Yes. You failed.

...

God did it or time did it , its pretty much the same faith and both have no evidence

>When I realized religion is just a way of controlling the masses.
>When I learned there are thousands of different religions, and most if not all claim theirs is the true and correct religion.
Ahh, but look into the origins of those religions. The emerged from what seems to be an initial nomad religion.
So they all seem to have related parts.

Except Judaism, who deliberately do the opposite to whatever country they're in. Seriously. They seem to have warped esoteric values. I guess being taught your race was genocided would do that.
>implying it happened :^)

Religion always has hidden knowledge. But some knowledge seems "untapped" and as soon as it is known, it causes problems. Like death cults.
this

> homo degenerate
> lol God doesn't exist

What a surprise

Ah satan claus the first fairy tale lie a kid has to process , is it a coincidence that this fat bastard also is pushed in at 25 december .. well if santa claus is not real ,jesus probably is not real also..... Goodjob satan

Agnostics are unthinking. The question should not be whether God exists, but what power God can give the individual or system. The muslims wage jihad because it's a worthy task set by their god. The same can be said for the crusaders, this can still be seen in the muslims and orthodox christians. The small men and the artists work earnestly at their tasks set by God. Godlessness has corrupted and enslaved western civilisation to unworthy and poisonous ideals such as socialism and hedonism.

I didn't.

There is a God, as far as I can tell.

You are proof, and atheism is a religion

I never really believed there was one. My parents shipped me off to church and sunday school, and it was alright, i didn't hate the experience, but none of it felt believable in the slightest. It's just silly.

When you consider how many religions have existed, and how most people are born into whichever they follow, it's even more telling.

>believing in the biggest bluepill of all history

The power doesn't use gods anymore to shill, but it was the ideology back then, if you believe in a god you're definitely not redpilled

>christcucks
>religion
>the bible
>muh noah and tower of babel

When you die you will meet God.

I believe it began in 3rd grade. Ironic because I attended a private Christian school then. I think it had to do with how much I read as a kid. I was always reading. I think about 5th grade was when it really solidified and I stopped believing all together. Funny though, I've never really read any atheist work outside of classical philosophy.

I didn't tell anyone I didn't believe until some years later. All my family and friends were Christian.

Best fucking post in this thread.
