This post is a reply to a reply from umbrellaface (check out the thread here):

So no. No atheists can say whether there is a god or not. Instead they can repeat the same stupid answers, and assume a person asking this question is religious. There may be proof of evolution, there is no proof of where we came from, who caused this big bang, why there is water and sun and sex and science. Where is the proof of where all of these things came from.

Ignorant atheists, denying the existence of something else in the world is so narrow minded and boring. Isn’t it nice to sometimes wonder why you are at home sitting on a computer looking at people doing better shit than you, and how you got there? 

I apologize for not being able to reply to your entire post, but I wanted to point out, this far into your reply that you’re describing a need for science, not for a god.  And science has provided answers to most of the questions you bring up.  Science explains why sex exists and how the sun came to be and even why we use religion to explain things we can’t explain with science.  

Don’t call atheists ignorant because they don’t believe in a 2000 year-old book.  Hell, don’t call anyone ignorant because that’s just rude.  The point is, atheists need evidence to know that something exists.  Religious types don’t.  Religious types don’t need to do research or experiments to prove to themselves that there is a God.  They’ve already made up their minds and many of them close those minds to the things science discovers.

Good scientists can’t have closed minds because science is discovering something new all the time.  Science changing is proof that science has an open mind.

And if, one day, science can prove the existence of God, I’ll change my position.  

I’ll try to reply more to your reply if I can cut a hole in my schedule.  I apologize for not being able to do so now.  Regardless, thanks for the reply.

The idea is that all of human society is based on a power structure that enslaves the trusting/ignorant and rewards the greedy and the dishonest. From government, to business to our individual lives, all of our actions are tailored to further support a system that exploits all of us and wastes our lives in the process. Website666.com endeavors to explain how. Shape-shifting lizards aren't running the world, but they might as well be. Only a sociopath would think they deserve to run things.
