  • Contradictions in Atheism

    29 NOV 2019 · Regardless of anyone's particular beliefs, all atheists share some from of denial for a Creator and Designer. This denial leads to many contradictions: Believing there is no design necessarily means believing in chance and randomness, which leads to adopting fantastical unproven hypothesis to explain order without a designer, rationality and intelligence from dumb irrational processes, life from dead matter, free choice for a creature with no purpose. Once you deny God you start treating universal laws selectively (e.g. yes to gravity, no to causation), adopting a stolen concept fallacy when you use causation to practice any empirical science but deny causation in the creation of the Universe and us. You cannot deny God, which is also denial of an objective source for morality, yet assume a higher moral ground and attack the morals of religious figures. To explain the fine-tuning which most scientists agree on, atheists need to practice self-deceit and non-scientific bias by attributing God-like creative qualities to dumb physical processes, such as natural selection, mother nature, gravity, etc. with no empirical evidence (what Lewontin and Gould call “just so” stories.)
