NO EVIDENCE OF ANY GODS
robert
It is interesting to observe that there are thousands of different God
beliefs but NO OBJECTIVE VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE ANY of these Gods actually
exist except in peoples imaginations.
Quite the contrary, there is a wealth of positive objective verifiable
evidence that no Gods actually exist.
Objective evidence indicates the Universe is greater than 20 BILLION LIGHT
YEARS in diameter. When you consider that light travels at 186,000 MILES PER
SECOND the Universe is incomprehensible in size and by comparison, our
World, is but a speck of dust in this vast Universe.
The scientific evidence is that our World is over 4 BILLION YEARS old.
Archaeological evidence is that man has existed on earth for approximately
100,000 years. When the various books of the Bible were written, most of
mankind believed the world was flat and the Sun, Stars and Planets revolved
around the Earth. Many believed that Christopher Columbus might sail to the
edge of the earth, and might fall off, during his trip that discovered the
new continent.
In 1492 and Biblical times the majority of the world assumed the earth was
flat and the Son, Stars and planets revolved around the Earth. Columbus
proved the Earth to be round.
By the 16 Th. century, scientists like Galileo, determined that the Earth,
Stars and Planets of our solar system revolved around the Sun. This spread
through the scientific community and the majority accepted this reality by
the 1800's. We now know from actual evidence, the earth is but an
inconsequential speck of dust in this unimaginably vast Universe. It is
scientific opinion that thousands and perhaps millions of planets, similar
to Earth, exist in this huge Universe.
Man is but grains of sand on this large Earth and less than dust in this
vast Universe. The 6 1/2 BILLION persons currently on this planet do not
appear to be of any significant consequence in this vast Universe.
In your Gods world; Plagues, Tsunamis, Tornadoes, Volcanic Eruptions, Wars,
Cancers and hundreds of debilitating diseases, serious body malfunctions and
starvation exist that torture both man and animals. There are 12,000 known
ailments and diseases that torture and kill man. A similar number torture
and plaque the rest of the animal kingdom. Thousands of destructive diseases
affect the plant kingdom. Why would an all powerful god create all these
diseases to torture and kill his creations??? These catastrophes affect
people of ALL religious beliefs including TOTALLY INNOCENT CHILDREN and
ANIMALS!
Just one small example of ridiculous ailments is a parasitic worm in West
Africa that bores through the eyes of innocent children and causes total
blindness for the rest of their lives. Is this evidence of a caring and
loving creator or any competent creator for that matter???
Why would any all powerful competent god permit totally innocent children to
die at birth? Or worse, be born lacking eyesight, a fully developed brain,
deaf and dumb, missing limbs etc.? Why are some born idiots and others with
super intelligence? Why are some born into wealth and others pauper poor?
Why does he permit 2,000,000 totally innocent children to suffer and die of
starvation each year? Why are his human creations designed to deteriorate
into a miserable and devastating old age?
Why would god create a gene for vitamin C synthesis in most mammals, but
stop it working in humans and chimps?
Why would god create a lizard that reproduces by parthenogenesis, and
still give it the need to attempt copulation?
Why would god create birds without the power of flight, yet give them
wings they cannot use?
Why would god create cave-dwelling creatures that live in complete
darkness, yet give them eyes that don't work?
If an all powerful god created this, why did he make so many horrible
mistakes and create this huge multitude of imperfections, pain and
suffering???
Why would any all powerful god create things like sharks, jelly fish,
octopus, lions, tigers, rhinoceros, poisonous snakes, stinging and poisonous
insects, poisonous plants etc.? Why would he create animals (including man)
that need to kill and eat other animals to survive?
IF there is an after life and a 'heaven' why does this all powerful, all
caring and all loving god not permit those in his heaven to communicate the
wonders of his heaven to their living children, relatives and friends? Why
all the secrecy and confusion? Unproven claims by the mentally deranged and
persons with selfish motives are not objective verifiable evidence - they
are just unsubstantiated silly OPINIONS.
Logic and common sense that refutes the existence of any omnipotent gods;
Is god willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then where does evil come from?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him a god?
These god tales make no more sense than Aesop's Fables, the Harry Potter
stories, the Wizard of Oz, or Santa Claus.
The objective evidence is that gods did not create man but quite the
opposite; man created gods!
Where is ANY objective verifiable evidence that ANY Gods actually exist?
Following is a list of the many gods worshipped and feared by man over the
decades.
Which, if any, of these gods is the real god? If there is a real god, why
does he not tell us directly and clearly he is the real god and all the
others are fakes??? Why does he not smite all the fakes?

That's not true. Most of Columbus's crew were pressed to service, and
did not want to go on what would be, quite surely and reasonably, they
reckoned, a hazardous voyage. One of the more desperate excuses given
by some crew members who did not want to leave their families for such
a long trip was that they "might fall off the end of the world". But
that was nothing more than an extreme of desperation. As mariners, they
knew differently.

No they didn't, and no he didn't. This is a misunderstanding of history
that is perpetuated by those who repeat myths without properly
understanding the history.
People KNEW the earth was round. Thousands of years before Columbus
plotted his route, Eratosthenes knew the earth was round and measured
its circumference to an extraordinary accuracy.
Moreover, mariners knew the earth was round. They routinely observed
that when a ship disappeared over the horizon, the hull disappeared
first, followed by the sails ; and when a vessel appeared on the
horizon, the sails appeared first, followed by the hull, and this
happened no matter where on the surface of the earth. The only shape of
earth that permits this observation is a globe.
Mariners and astronomers were also familiar with the phenomenon of
lunar eclipses, which they knew were caused by the shadow of the earth
falling on the moon. The circular shadow was regularly observed
crossing the face of the moon. The only shapes which permit this
observation are, of course, spheres.
It is a really shame to think that one of the central premises of the
likes of Erich von Daniken -- that our ancestors were dummies -- should
be promulgated in this way. It is not true. Our forebears merit a
better representation than this nonsense.

One can make many cogent arguments why God (or gods) may not exist, but
the Appeal to Incredulity is not one of the better ones.

Now you talk about "Gods" and yet latter you list many "gods" so I am
going to proceed on the basis that you dont understand about
capitalizing proper nouns and you meant "gods" all along.
You may have a god named God just as you may own a dog named Dog.
Now some gods are purely imaginative creations - they have no physical
manifestation - but other gods have bodies or some other physical
manifestation.

Well that isnt always the case - for example the Roman Emperor
Augustus was a god and there is verifiable evidence that he existed.
You then spend a lot of time talking about God - which I find tedious
so I am not commenting on that.
Cheers, Mark.
