Thread Name: BS: New things about atheism
Subject: RE: BS: New things about atheism
>>Your "proof" actually proves that you use faulty logic when coming to conclusions. Your first assertion,"There is no such thing as a first cause in our experience" is demonstrably false--to wit--The Big Bang Theory<<

Are you saying that astrophysicists the Big Bang is an uncaused cause?? Could you provide a staement from a reputable scientist? I know of no quallified person claiming any such thing. Most believe it is not even the beginning of the universe: "...when the universe was between 10^-35 and 10^-33 seconds old, it underwent an exponential expansion, increasing its radius by a fantastic 10^50 amount. This 'inflation' phase happened just before and was even more rapid than the standard Big Bang phase." --Beyond Einstein, Michio Kaku, p.139

>>--the rest your arguement is circular logic, and a vague recapitulation of the "chicken and the egg", and, in case you missed it, the egg won--having pre-existed chickens in the reproductive evolution by millions of years--<<

You'll need to explain this so that it has some relevance to the discussion. It's nothing more than a subjective statement as it sits. Logic, man, logic.

>>So, what we've established is that you tend not to use reason and logic when coming to conclusions--therefore, you atheism is irrational--<<

What we've established is that you do not even know your science much less what is rational or irrational.
