I tried to count the logical fallacies in this post and got exhausted. It's really quite remarkable to see a mind this dysfunctional. Isn't this the RMT guy who bragged about it and lost 400K and his high level rogue? That seems like proof of idiocy.

How about people in this thread start showing proof God doesn't exist? Oh wait, you can't.
You're not real clear on this idea of proof, are you? Try this: Russell's teapot

Actually, look what thread we are in. The burden of proof lies upon you and all other unintelligent people who deny the existence of God by simply going to Wikipedia and searching for truth.

Unlike you, I understand the origin of *Dyēus ph2ter, the god of the day sky, in the proto-Indo-European religions. Like many things that small minds obsess about, God is a social construct. You can continue to dream this particular delusion, or you can choose to move toward a more accurate understanding of reality. Honestly, it's all the same to me.

Your arguments all break down to this standard form:

The universe is very complicated
Science cannot explain every detail
Therefore God exists.

This thinking is so lazy as to be pathetic. Abstracting a cause outside the realm of reality is not an explanation. It's burying your head in the sand.

No it doesn't. It is not up to anyone to disprove there isn't a supreme all powerful being that wants you to do various things listed in a ancient book. That is not the default position of a thinking human.
No one is born a Christian (or Muslim, Jew ect..). That shit is generally drilled in their head as a 4-6 year old kid that is still incapable of critical thought. These beliefs are then reinforced regularly by the community and become a pillar of their social life. We are social creatures prone to tribalism, of course people are reluctant to give up their customs and rituals.
If you want to admit there is no logical reason for your beliefs and they just make you happy, whatever. However, you treaded into a debate forum and attempted to argue your beliefs are justified. You can expect to be challenged.
So far all you offered was a weak ass argument from personal incredulity:
Evolution says that people just came into existence by chance.
I cannot see how this is possible.
Evolution must be false.
Why don't you just cut the crap and admit its personal experience (feeling the holy or whatever) that lead you to be a Christian. Not some analysis of the facts.

Actually, I haven't really argued in a sense anything you are trying to put into my mouth, mostly just none of the people in this forums are Credible sources to try and judge the existence of a higher being or not and also trying to point out that theories =/ fact. I've also just given "fun" reads, yet people like asslawen apparently read right past that trying to argue for me that I'm arguing that this famous atheist now believes in God must be proof a god without even reading that I CLEARLY put in the beginning of my post that I thought that was a fun read.

I guess I shouldn't expect more though from fat potato chip gorging people trying to live in the past.
