      I go to Bush doofs and outdoor EDM festivals. The combination of being in nature, the music, the quality of the sound system, the lasers and lights, art installations, the people around you all being one with the music can create an ecstatic state of mind. Add some chemical assistance like LSD or ecstacy and it completely matches what people describe as a religious experience.

      Can't really engage in a debate with an atheist because their position is based in bias.
      Atheism is a disbelief which means it's an unwillingness or inability to accept God as true. That's not the worst part of debating an atheist the worst part is they don't even believe the origins of Life came into existence without God. At least 99.5% of the atheist that I've talked to. And the ones that do and actually provide their argument to why they believe the origins of Life came into existence without God it's always the same it's always I never seen God . And then I ask them have you ever seen life pop into existence because of a non intelligent occurrence and of course they haven't so I asked them why they believed it. And I just give them the same lazy argument in return I believe in God because I never seen life pop into existence because of a non intelligent occurrence.
      Anyway do you believe the origins of Life came into existence without the Creator without God? If so please provide evidence to why you believe it. And if your evidence doesn't convince me in return I will provide evidence to why I believe in God so we can see which one of us is more logical.
      If not I guess you see what I mean ,how do you debate an atheist who's not willing or able to accept God as true but at the same time doesn't believe the origins of Life came into existence without God.

      Why? Arrogant ignorance is completely curable and it’s a personal choice whether you seek treatment or not. It’s just like drug addiction only the addicted can decide when and where, anyway this guy is a repeat troll just seeking attention.

      @Jcs57 I totally get what you're saying, but in religion, most people are taught what to believe when they're very young (they're brain-washed), and breaking away from that is super hard. You can tell this caller is having an emotional response to the rebuttals and isn't equipped to make an objective decision.

      @@Bigfootz2004 I know what you are conveying but my analogy stands whether the addiction starts in childhood or later. A drug addict is always seeking a fix whether that’s pills or the next apologetic reassurance or Bible reading. In the end both will defend their addiction because no one knows what they know blah blah blah. Until they believe that it doesn’t fit them anymore they will continue to feed that addiction no matter what anyone says. It’s why drug addicted people trying to sober up find religion helpful because it just replaces the old addiction with a more culturally acceptable one and their behavior pattern doesn’t take such a drastic impact that their senses might otherwise struggle to adapt to.

    My mother got pneumonia last Christmas. She’s doing fine now. But she could’ve gotten worse because the nurses/doctors didn’t notice at first. I hear people saying someone surviving a tragedy or illness is a miracle or god’s grace, but why let it happen in the first place?
    I thank the medicine, treatment, and my mother’s assertion that she’s healthy. Not a being who supposedly created everything, knows everything, but only helps people “at random”. That’s a worthless god if not cruel deity. Regardless my mom is okay.
