Claiming to be wise, they became fools,and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature;and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips,slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them. - Romans 1:22-32

And refuse to look at any evidence contrary to the lies they’ve been told. They get triggered if their faith in pharmaceutical products is diminished.

He believes God doesn't exist even though it's not possible to prove that God doesn't exist & never will be. Therefore, it's an unscientific, faith based belief, but he'll mock those who take the opposite position. There's a better chance of finding evidence of existence of God than there ever will be of finding evidence of absence. Dawkins is in a belief/faith based state of mind too , he just doesn't refer to it as a religion. I think the only approach thats in line with scientific inquiry & the spirit of science would be to be agnostic, otherwise its belief & faith regardless of what side you fall on.

On the surface, if there's any depth atall, it's a blanket term that covers over the unknown with a concept that's equally invalid. No different than a person who seen a UFO claims it was aliens from someplace else. The U in UFO means unidentified, as it isn't known and therefore cannot lead to, it's aliens as the first or best explanation for the sightings.

God is real therefore x reason for belief is true. Then x reason for belief is true therefore it proves God is real. The fault lies in using an illogical poorly reasoned conclusion of "God is real = true" with no evidence/premises and using that to fill out the rest of the logical premises and conclusions truth values of your faith without ever proving it is true, then using those truth values as the premises for the argument "God is real is true" when the only reason the premises can be true is if you already determined God is real If you really think you have good reason to believe in a God you are showing an incredible lack of logic and reasoning skills.

Every belief system, including atheism, has an unprovable epistemological axiom: something which when you boil down, can only be believed by faith. There were no witnesses at the origin of the universe, meaning you either need to believe by faith one of two things: matter has always existed, or matter spontaneously came into existence. Both theories violate laws of thermodynamics. If matter and energy has always existed, it would return to a state of chaos due to entropy. Since in this theory matter exists for an infinite amount of time, it has an infinite amount of time to unravel through entropy, meaning no order should exist. Additionally, nothing ever goes from chaos to order, always the other way around. The only exception being if an outside force, say, a God, arranged it into some form of order. If it came into existence spontaneously, it would need some outside force, say, a God, to initiate it, since matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Atheists take by faith the infinitesimally small chance that order can exist from chaos. Theists take by faith the words of God. Neither at their core are grounded by science. Both require some form of faith.

I think he is aware that everything associated with your religion is not evil. I imply that regard to the subject of faith in general too. He is making a logical arguement. Imagine having faith so great you force your kids into it. You could say it is evil. For example, if you get a kid to avoid all ungodly influences they will lack life experience. So much so they are more likely to make Earth, Hell. They will lack human bonds, life experience, they will have unhealthy sexual urges because they will lose their entire childhood to a god that you have faith in. I have watched it happen. Everything has consequences. Being willfully ignorant and ignoring the fact that faith is illogical can be evil and dangerous.

My church vehemently argues against "blind faith", which is how the term faith is often used in typical speech. "My team is losing 50-0!" "Oh, just have faith!" This usage has grossly misinterpreted the meaning of it. The first definition I gave has two parts. 1) You must know who God says He is, and determine for yourself, given your life experiences, if God's character truly sounds accurate and real in the universe we live in. 2) You must know God's promises and determine if they have truly been upheld. For example, God promised Abraham to make him a father of all the nations, going so far as to say that his descendants would outnumber thr stars in the sky and the sand on the Earth. Look at today where we now have nearly 8 billion people alive, and that doesn't even include all the other people that have lived through history. If you know His character, and you find Him to be true to His promises, then you can have faith that He will do what He says He'll do. Like when a good, faithful friend says "I'll be there", you can count on them to show up. It's not a coin toss as to whether they will or not.

@@Philrc Except, no, it's literally not blind faith. Here's the checklist detailed in case you missed it. 1) Read about His promises 2) Determine if those promises have been fulfilled, based off of your own life experiences. 3) Read about His character and actions 4) Determine if those characteristics and actions are evident in your life experiences. Even science follows a similar ruleset. 1) Hypothesize 2) Test and determine if results accurately reflect what was expected. Who drops a ball and expects it to go up? No one, because based on previous life experiences, we expect a dropped ball to fall down. I can logically prove God exists with a thought experiment. If I were a drawing in a flipbook, how would my 3D version interact with my universe (the flipbook)? Then I extrapolate that up so my 2D version becomes 3D and my 3D version becomes 4D. From this thought experiment, the fundamental, inmutable characteristics of God can be described. He would be omnipresent since He can span the entirety of the "flipbook". He would be omnipotent since He would essentially be the artist, able to draw and conjure up anything at His will. He would be omniscient since He would know the entire story of the flipbook from front the back since He drew it. He would be eternal since He exists out of our dimension of time. As stated previously, He knows the front and the back of the flipbook, the Creation and the Extinction of that universe. It'd be foolish from the artist's perspective for the drawing to deny the artist's existence. The artist created it, yet has no way of directly interjecting expect to add himself to the flipbook, like what God did when He took on flesh in the form of Jesus Christ. Other than a direct interjection like that, which still did not convince many of the people of his day, the artist would only be able to act, and from those actions, we can determine the artist's character. If the artist smites all blonde people, then we can determine the artist loathes blondes.

There is an obvious hole in his argument, or maybe he’s just wording it incorrectly, because most people who have faith and are religious are not believing in something without evidence.

@@philscott3759 Hey Phil! I’d love to discuss this with you! Miraculous doesn’t always mean walking on water or coming back from death, it can be a multitude of things but finding your car keys is quite a weak argument to oppose. I completely understand why you’d be skeptical, and I don’t blame you at all! Why would anyone believe in God? It’s seems impossible for someone like that to exist so I completely understand where you’re coming from and I’m not trying to argue with you at all. When I said miraculous, I did not mean finding your car keys, I would say that is a straw man argument. What about the real life stories of people that actually exist who have been healed from disease when doctors said they had weeks to live? I personally know people who have experienced a multitude of happenings that I would deem as miraculous, and I myself have as well. They’re not always so obvious like being saved from a car crash or something but they are much more profound than that, they are not always a single instance but rather, a constant connection. Have you thought about the fact that maybe people can’t describe what God sounds like or looks like because someone as great as God would not be communicating in such human and earthly ways? That maybe the reason that science can’t explain God and that science can’t prove God exists is because if He could be proved by science then what would be so great about Him? I know you might say that there are many great and astounding things that can be proved by science but personally I think that if God was subject to science He would not be ‘God’. God must be greater than science and exists outside the laws and dimensions that we humans perceive. I know this might sound crazy and I don’t blame you if you think that. I do however feel that if you truly open yourself to God, and I mean truly genuinely and 100% open yourself to the possibility that God exists then it is impossible to not be confronted by Him. I believe that if you are willing, and really genuinely open your heart and mind and soul to God, and I mean genuinely, not in a way that you’re doing it just to prove that there isn’t a God, but if you genuinely open your heart to God, it is impossible to not feel and hear Him in ways that you feel and understand so deep in your soul that are profound beyond belief. I believe that Jesus is God and you’re free to say you disagree but personally I feel that I’ve experienced too many things to say otherwise. I’ve had periods where I didn’t believe there was a God at all and tried to live that way, but God always found me and spoke to me on a level that I can’t really articulate. If He wasn’t real, then I would have no problem saying that, and I have believed that at times and struggled with the illogical and unscientific nature of God but God is greater than Logic and Science. If He was bound by science and logic He would not be ‘God’. I personally have experienced too many ‘miraculous’ things in my life to say that He does not exist and by ‘miraculous’ I don’t only mean someone being healed from a disease or saved from a car crash but I mean the profound connection that goes right to my very soul and essence and being. Jesus, God, speaks to everyone in a different way. I’m glad to continue this discussion with you Phil, please feel free to say whatever you want. I pray that God speaks to you soon, in a way that only you can understand. Have a great day Phil!

The problem with this is that sometimes you don't have enough information and the next fact could change your tune. That means that you could be wrong even if you choose the most apparently consistent heap of facts. Sometimes life demands a decision based on sub-optimal information, and that means you have to take a risk even if you don't have evidence. Navigating life isn't just about facts, it's about payoffs and avoiding scenarios or searching for specific scenarios and all of these require that you see past the facts and make decisions. And results matter a lot. Often more than the process to arive there. Life may not wait for you to weigh the facts for and against.

When you eat at a restaurant you can examine the food before you eat it. You can see that it’s what you ordered, that it’s been cooked properly, and that it tastes like it’s supposed too. That’s not faith.

Believing in God is not evil.

Everyone can have a faith it’s when a few dangerous people and in particular men start using it for their own gains.

And beyond your lack of understanding of science, even using your logic it is still flawed. You can become a scientist. You can't become a religious figure.

No matter what is taught and believed, there will always be evil men doing evil things. But in order for good men to do evil things you need faith. This is a paraphrase of someone else's quote

I don't think the concept of faith itself is bad. Atleast having faith on something like for example having faith in believing that someone will do the right or moral thing or hoping that your favourite sports team wins. Though what I'm thinking off could be classified more as hope than faith.

Brainwashing. Religious people can’t quite grasp the fact that they’ve been brainwashed. Religious people are the perfect example of how brainwashing works. Brainwashing is not just about tricking the mind its about making you desire to believe what you’ve been taught is correct no matter what, no matter what logic says, no matter what the truth is, they’ve branded it under the disguise of having faith. Religions are proven to be ancient brainwashing tools used by past leaders to provide them influence and power over its population. “If you don’t do this in a certain way you will go to hell”, “If you don’t this do this in a certain way it’s a sin and god will find you punishment”. “If you do this in a certain way god will reward you”, “If you do this in a certain way god will save you”. its an almost perfect scheme. Today humans still create this brainwashing techniques but we don’t call it religion any longer and we don’t based it upon the fictional and the spiritual any longer. I know what you religion folks are thinking right now god will send people in your life to test your faith and you shall not cede to it you must keep believing, you must keep believing, you must keep believing always no matter what or god will find you punishment. Thats is one of the most impressive principles of brainwashing at its finest the people who created religion knew precisely what they were doing. Always prepare them for the inevitable confrontation with people who will speak truth to them that is one of the most important rules of brainwashing. It’s astonishing and terrifying at the same time. I know that the grand majority of religious people will chose to ignore and not take this statement to heart as it takes a ridiculous amount of mental strength, suffering and determination to undo brainwashing. Most individuals as an innate defense mechanism will never allow themselves to be subjugated to such process they will chose to ignore it like a kid would ignore a warning from their teacher. Because the truth of human kind is that as long as they feel happy and safe they will most of the time chose to ignore the truth. And thats why usually the ignorants are also the happiest but bottom line you are still living under a lie a safe delusion. But then you also understand why modern nations such as western countries, China, Russia and Japan and every country and society that doesn’t have its political and educational system attached to a fictional and old minded brainwashing scheme of centuries ago is so much more developed than countries whose education and politics is bound to religion such as most Muslim countries for example…Modern societies of today in the west, China, Russia, Japan and others of the sort its about innovation of ideas while others such as in the middle east it’s about preservation of ancient ideas. Muslim countries will always be far below the rest of the world in science, societal development and general quality of life as long as they don’t realize that religion was made to be appreciated and not followed blindly like a cult. You are only gonna push yourself down as long as you keep preserving ideas of centuries ago completely outdated for todays reality and needs. Innovation is the birth of new information and information is the source of power and there is barely to almost none of it in Muslim middle eastern countries pushed by their enforcement of religion in both politics and education.

Its only a problem if you try to force your beliefs on others. I see no problem in believing that there's more to life than what we can see, which is a very simplistic way of thinking.

Extremely well put and So True Richard Dawkins..!

Dawkins makes a tremendous assumption that faith is "Belief without Evidence." He declares it to be evil, which is a judgement based on his faith in his own prejudices. Dawkins ignores all of the great advances born of the sciences born if the Catholic Church which taught that the world is a logical, understandable place that we can study and come closer to the Creator. He more sinisterly ignores that religion is not the source of horror he makes it out to be; but atheistic politics such as Naziism and, even worse, Marxisms' children: Communism and Socialism have racked up a far darker record in 105 years than religion has in the entire history of humanity on this globe.

None of the scientific discoveries or theories facilitated by the Catholic Church relied on faith or God as a premise. Also, Nazim wasn't atheistic. It's well documented that Hitler, who may have been an atheist himself, nevertheless relied heavily on references to God and "the creator", both in his book and in his speeches. Also he tried to propagate a brand of Christianity that removed its reliance on Judaism and Jesus who was a Jew. Not to mention that all of the men and women who carried out the atrocities of the Holocaust were CHRISTIAN, not atheist. Do your reseach. While your at it, research how the murder of 6 million Jews by Hitler was the natural culmination of the atrocious treatment of jews in Christendom from the 12th Century onwards. The relentless murdering and raping of the Jewish people by Christians is a ghastly legacy the Christians today pretend doesn't exist. The extermination of the Jews by the Nazis was called "the Final Solution" for a reason. Also, if you racked up thr body count of religion in all human history you would get a figure that dwarfs any body count that would be attributed to athriesm. Fron the ghastly human sacrifices of the Ancient Aztec societies to the religious wars in Europe, the Crusades, Holocaust, and the death of thousands upon thousands in Africa from AIDS due to Catholic Doctrine, etc. That figure would shame every thiest trying to claim you need god to be moral.

Evil is to use your faith to harm people

Seeds of the Holy Spirit grow within us -- humility, kindness diligence, charity,, temperance, and chastity. Mark 11: 24-25 further reads, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have recieved it, and it wiill be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive your sins." Once we understand the seeds have already been planted within our souls by our Baptism, the seeds then grow by the forgiving graces of the Holy Spirit into greater gifts. ❤
