Top 10 Lamest Arguments Used by Christians

It seems to me that religious people are only aware of one alternative theory: the big bang. There are more theories than the big bang that are equally plausible. The oldest and now the least plausible theory is the God-theory.

It's modern science and its progressions that will maybe someday explain the beginning of the universe. It's certainly not the sudden proof of the existence of God that will explain it!

What this question is really trying to ask is, "Why is there something rather than nothing?" The answer to that is I don't know, and neither do you.

I am not claiming to have an answer to that question. However, you are claiming that you do have the correct explanation, and I want to know what evidence you have that your particular explanation is the correct one.

I believed for thirteen years. Someone I knew believed and used his religion to justify his poor actions. "God has a plan," he said. He drank himself to death.

So is this the equivalent of saying that if you see a film, you MUST be an actor or actress?

I'm not a Christian, but I once heard a pastor say that God answers every prayer. He answers with "yes," "no," or "not yet."

One time, I was arguing with a Christian friend who tried to convince me God is the real god, not Allah (I am a Muslim, by the way). He told me to disprove God, and I replied to disprove Allah. He got mad and asked which religion had better morals. I replied that morality is not relevant to reality.

The burden of proof isn't on somebody to prove that something doesn't exist. It's for somebody to prove that something does exist. Especially if the atheist isn't saying they believe there is no God but just saying they merely lack a belief that there is a God.

If God is omniscient, it means He knows the future. If He knows the future, it means that the future will develop the way He knew. If the future shouldn't develop that way, it means He didn't know the future. If everything develops because He is omniscient, it also means that everything happens necessarily.

And if everything happens necessarily, it means that there is no free will. You can't change something that will happen necessarily. If there's no free will, it means that people aren't responsible for their sins and actions. If God punishes people because of their sins for which they are not responsible, it would mean that God is immoral.

The conclusion is: Either God is omniscient and also immoral, or He is not immoral, but in that case, He isn't omniscient. Logic says that God can't be omniscient and good if He gave free will to men. In more logical terms, it means that there is no God and, for that matter, no God-given free will.

My church used to say this every time I would ask a question about God. I started doubting religion the exact moment they told me this.

Just a fancy way of saying they can't explain what is happening or give an answer to something.

More like God works in delirious ways.

The idea of the universe just coming into existence is the second stupidest thing I have ever heard. There is absolutely no proof of it. But there is proof of God. Consider this: All cells come from preexisting cells. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

So the universe cannot just come out of nothing.

There isn't a Big Bang. If there was, how would those atoms be created? Would they be created out of nowhere?

Answer: The Big Bang.

Why can't you Christians believe the works of science already?

Listen, even if the Christian God exists, and He has committed the sin of sloth by being lazy and not appearing on earth in our time, He would not send His son down here to behave like a monster. Jesus was supposed to be peaceful.

"Fundie who believes come to Heaven." "Sinner, you will be beheaded." The seas turn into blood, some evil-looking horsemen appear, and sinners go to Hell.

That's nonsense because if you had to believe that, then we've been in the end times for thousands of years now. However, I saw that you will stop and end your top ten sites. For me, that's worse than the end of times because your sites were really good. Can you reconsider and not do so?

The Bible is made by humans, so if you say, "The Bible says," it's the same thing as saying, "People say." If I had to believe the morals and thinking of the stupid people that made the Bible thousands of years ago, I would be stupid myself.

The Bible says you have to stone people who are blasphemers to death. People justify hatred against homosexuals with, "The Bible says it's bad," yet I want to see somebody who is stoning a person for blasphemy. I mean, the Bible says so...

Yep, it's a book. Written by humans. Who are flawed.

Actually, humans are more closely related to the great apes, not monkeys. And to everyone saying we evolved from fish, we evolved from single-celled organisms.

Monkeys came from other, less evolved monkeys, and evolution split down the line. We did not come from monkeys. Don't say this and look stupid.

We actually evolved from a third species, a common ancestor of both humans and monkeys, similar to the relationship between dogs and wolves.

Yeah, wasn't he some horrible guy before "He was forgiven"? And he was horrible with God controlling him or whatever.

If he died or if he had lived, what would be the difference in my life?

And does that change my life in any way?

Yes and no. The Hebrews mixed history with theology, but there are huge portions of the Bible that exaggerate or try to tie religious belief with factual history, much of it being based on, or identical to, earlier Mesopotamian religious beliefs, in spite of things they knew were true even then. There are also many contradictions.

It is, first and foremost, a book of Christian theology, not history.

No, it isn't. But it's a great read, all those 1000+ pages.

If it's a history book, can I read about the Ancient Greeks in it? (sarcasm)

Personally, I think hell is fictional. If I die, then I (and everyone who dies) will stay in my grave.

Only if you did something really unthinkable, such as committing terrorism or murder.

It might not be so bad. I mean, they say there's pizza with pineapple there.

Except humans are the worst species of animal on earth. Why are we so special just because we have managed to destroy the earth?

Thanks, Captain Obvious. Because God was a human (if he even exists, of course).

This is why I hate when people say that if they're abstinent or pretty wholesome, they're a "child of God." I am abstinent and quite wholesome, and I'm an atheist. If someone tells me I'm a "child of God/Jesus" because of my lifestyle, I'll tell them to stop giving me that schtick.

No, it is possible without religion. I still have morals, and I'm an atheist.

But atheists don't really have faith. Or do they?

This claim made me lose a brain cell.

Ok, I'm a Christian, and I cringe whenever I hear this argument. It's like saying that you're still alive because two midgets dropped a ring into a volcano. Do you think Lord of the Rings is a history book? No, you don't, and atheists don't think the Bible is a history book and therefore don't believe in God. To an atheist, asking God's forgiveness is like praising Frodo and Sam for their courage.

Ok, looking back, the Lord of the Rings reference looks a bit awkward, but it hopefully got the message across.

Conscience. If they think their conscience is clear, it means they believe they didn't do anything wrong because it's forgiven.

If God is testing me for something I didn't ask for, then he must be a very evil person (or whatever he is). He likes to play with his supposed creation or what?

Why would God test me or anyone in general? Even though I am a Christian, this statement sounds foolish to me.

Testing me on what? Calculus? If so, I'm going to fail. (This is a joke.)

As a Christian, I disagree. Global warming is real, and we need to fix this catastrophic situation as fast as possible.

Global warming shouldn't be ignored. It's actually a serious issue that's harming the environment. There's scientific proof of it.

I don't want to die. Millions more people are dying. So you say, the world is getting colder?

I'm a Christian who believes homosexuality is natural, not sinful. Being gay or straight is like being right-handed or left-handed, so it's not a choice.

I'm adding this item because it is a lame reason to give as to why homosexuality is wrong. Yes, God made a man and a woman during creation so that the human species can survive and become more numerous.

However, it doesn't mean that the refusal to procreate in a married relationship is automatically wrong. There is so much more to a marriage than having and raising children.

Being satanic would mean that we're not atheists. If we believe in Satan, we'd be killing each other. Yet you ask us, What is stopping you from killing everyone? You say that we drink blood and use it to draw pentagrams. Few Christians criticize, but some do. It is racist.

How are we satanic if we don't believe in Satan?

Time is relative. You can measure time in relation to the speed of light. When matter goes faster than light, it transforms into pure energy. Beyond pure energy, time stops because it's impossible to measure something that doesn't react anymore. That is a proven scientific theory. My question is, where is God in all that?

I know for a sure fact that I came from my mother! Besides that, what about handicapped people, intellectually disabled people, bad people... is that the work of a good god?

I came from my mother, not God. Why would God suddenly summon me?

Yes, I came from my mother and father.

Atheists can be good people (I'm an atheist, and I'm not that bad). They get their morals from their family or their environment (e.g., me).

I get my morals from myself. And I'm a good person!
