Nothing can be proved (at least intellectually). Neither any kind of God, nor any kind of absence of God. Don’t take my word for it. Read Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason. Read Heisenberg and Godel. Ask of any statement – “but based on what?”, and keep asking – and later (or mostly sooner) the thread leads back simply to an assumption.

This means that any honest discussion about God or no-God must always be prefaced by the statement – “I believe”. This applies to a-theism, just as to any theism. These are all equally unprovable belief systems.

But atheists have a tendency simply to state their faith as fact. Dangerous if people are taken in by this.

Consider the Dawkins delusion. He’d have you believe that science somehow has disproved God. Nonsense. Literally non sense. Apart from anything – which God? Surely one should have a clear definition of what you don’t believe in?

What’s worse, he has a scientific training. Has he forgotten it? He should know better. Hypothesis “No-God”. Pretty vague, but then … evidence? It’s blind faith.

At least the leaders of the old religions – Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists mostly preface their statements with “I believe”. (Have you recited the Nicene creed recently?).

And the result? Worse than any major religion. Atheism preaches a morality of nihilism (there is no point, no spirit, no meaning, there is only the material).

Yes, through the ages atrocities have been carried out in the name of religions; but non more-so than atheism. Unshackled from morality mankind has released Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, Capitalism. Let the whole law by thyself. Why not indeed – if your religion preaches that there is nothing beyond this material existence.

There is a kind of logic. But no logic of kindness.
