Because God is the necessary precondition for everything to exist. Knowledge, logic, time & space, morals, the mind, etc.

Used too be atheist for half my life before i started doing research, i agree with that the personal experiences of someone is not a solid proof.

If u actually are willing to look into this and u arent just an edgy atheist then i would recommend searching up on yt:
Trancendental argument by Jay Dyer.

Dyer also has open debates on twitter space several times a month, so if u have questions or want to challenge his argument then go for it. I can also discuss if u want to, but i dont have too much knowledge and cant formulate things too well because english is not my first language

Religion is cope. Morals are cope. Jesus is cope. Allah is cope. Buddha is cope. Luck is the only moral that matters in life. Religions gives people false hope and help people feel that they have a meaning in life.

Terrible argument. Not only does this start with a question begging fallacy already discrediting it but there are plenty of ways to resolve this anyways. You can just believe in materalism that thjngs like logic, morality, etc are all just languages humans developed socially and things like objectivity/truth are just subject object relational. Sure you could say everything could be just based on out perception but the same problem still stands jf you are religious. Even if u believe god created knowledge u have no way of knowing if the knowledge you have is from god. Another view is physicalism. You can believe things like logic, morals, etc are just necessary for reality in the same way you assert a god is necessary in all possible world due to the impossibility of the contrary. A world not governed by logic would simply be self defeating or cease to exist. You can also argue for platonism or that things like logic are discovered just like nature and the universe around us. You can also adopt a antirealist view, although sounding absurd still leads to your argument not following. Many ways to answer this terrible argument which isnt even a argument, its a fallacy formed into a argument


It also leads to contradictions if you argue that god creates knowledge and reality since him existing is reality in itself. Also if god creates logic then if he proceeds logic then he could cease to exist and lead to other paradoxes. If you believe its his nature then logic would have to be axiomatic with god

My point proven further. Nothing wrong with brainwashed people believing in religion. But I'm not gonna sit here and act like it's not cope. And it's even more annoying when religioncels try to push their beliefs and religion onto others.

How did i beg the question, i was waiting for ur response, so i could continue lol
You can believe things like logic, morals, etc are just necessary for reality in the same way you assert a god is necessary in all possible world due to the impossibility of the contrary. A world not governed by logic would simply be self defeating or cease to exist.
Are u saying that without logic the world would cease to exist?, where is this coming from?

This is also a false analogy because God and logic, morals, etc are not the same
It also leads to contradictions if you argue that god creates knowledge and reality since him existing is reality in itself. Also if god creates logic then if he proceeds logic then he could cease to exist and lead to other paradoxes. If you believe its his nature then logic would have to be axiomatic with god
Logical contradictions are not possible from god as truth cannot be violated


Sorry if i misunderstood something, it was really hard to read, could u split up the next response so i can read it easier.

@pandamonium why did u reacts with "ugh", can u get objective morality with atheistic worldview?

human nature actually debunks god more than it proves god. Your eyeballs see everything backwards, your brain has to do the task of flipping it automatically otherwise you would be completely disoriented. If there was a designer there would be no need for this flaw. Humans have tailbones which can lead to extremely serious injury if damaged and removing it doesnt effect practicality at all, babies drown in their mothers fluids all the time. Human spines arent made for upright walking thats why we develop skulliosis and get shorter as we age.

If there was a designer theres only two real options
A) he is terrible at designing. Disproving god
B) his design was ruined. Which still disproves god since why would he design something perfect in the first place if it was gonna get ruined anyways. Also if your going to say sin or whatever it still doesnt make sense for the human body to be damaged by it it would make sense if they just become immoral

If your first premise is that god is necessary for x and yoh conclude with god exists. Thats begging the question fallacy verbatum

Logic is everywhere in nature there are no contradictions that exist for example. If they did you would have married bachelors, false truths, and otherextreme absurdities, even things like the laws of physics rely on logical axioms. So yes logic itsslf would necessarily exist in all possible worlds. It doesnt need to be “created”
This is also a false analogy because God and logic, morals, etc are not the same
It is a true analogy. Lets say god created logic. How do you know the logic you use isnt a false form of logic given by god? How do you know any knowledge you have is even from god or if its from satan or even just something you made up? How do you even know the bible/quran or whatever religion you believe even exists how do you know that its not another god tricking you into thinking it does. All of these problems exist even if god exists
Logical contradictions are not possible from god as truth cannot be violated
Did god created logic ? If so its subjective to him and he could violate it if he wants. If god cannot erase logic then that in itself is a logical paradox for god to create something he cant destroy

Is logic intrinsic to god? Well this copout is no different from saying logic is intrinsic to reality so it defeats your argument

There is a pecking order. Humans are far more advanced creatures than animals, just like how animals are far more advanced than insects, etc. There are likely creations that are above us humans as well (who exist on other planets/universes), who don't have to experience any of the same flaws that you mentioned. Humans have been born as upper-mid tier creations, so this is all we know as of right now.

Well if you want to demonstrate that morality is objective then go ahead. I only responded cause you made the false claim that you cant have objective morality under atheism

Religion is a way to control the population so that it doesn't devolve into degeneracy.

I'm jealous of people who lives 100+ years ago who got to live in conditions that were well suited to the human condition. Fundamentally, humans are designed to survive and procreate. Therefore, to live happy lives, we should focus on building a healthy family. The only reason this was possible was because people followed religions.

Nowadays, everyone has given up on religion and we have to deal with this clown world of degeneracy every day. No trad wife/husband roles, LGBT, porn and Onlyfans, drugs, hookup culture and meaningless sex, childfree movements, wageslaving for globocorps, race mixing, forced diversity everywhere, immigrants, no sense of community, high divorce rates, plumetting white birth rates, feminism, tech addictions, female hypergamy. This is what we have to deal with today. The conditions for raising a healthy family are terrible. Your wife will likely divorce you, you can't afford many children, your children will be fucked up because of parental drug usage and your children will be corrupted by society. Building a healthy family is almost impossible.

Humans are “advanced” due to intelligence. Cheetahs are advanced due to speed. Giraffes are a advanced due to height. You can go on forever. Your just picking a random attribute we evolved to excel in lmao. Also humans are animals so idk what you mean by their more advanced than animals

Logic has to rely on God, because if he does not exist then logic is just a product of randomness and without any binding authority. For logic to be possible you need God
It is a true analogy. Lets say god created logic. How do you know the logic you use is a false form of logic given by god?

Logic is grounded in God relfects his unchanging nature


We know that it is not Satan because of divine revelation
Did god created logic ? If so its subjective to him and he could violate it if he wants. If god cannot erase logic then that in itself is a logical paradox for god to create something he cant destroy
God is the logos
Is logic intrinsic to god? Well this copout is no different from saying logic is intrinsic to reality so it defeats your argument
God is not the same as reality tho?


For knowledge and logic to be possible there must be an unchanging source.

That is why i pressupose God. U may call this circular reasoning, but u would also presuppose logic, which only makes sense if God exists. So attempting to deny God is reliant on a rational, orderly universe existing which again can only exist if God is the ultimate source

Intellectual prowess is the only advancement that's relevant at large. If humans and animals fought each other in an all out war, who do you think would win? Obviously the ones that have access to guns and other weapons (and the knowledge to use them). And you know what I mean when differentiating humans and animals nigga, don't be a smartazz

Simple. When there is a certain order, it is because there is an intelligence behind it, and in nature there is order everywhere.

Deism is the way forward
 
I understand, but it was just to start the discussion.

Logic has to rely on God, because if he does not exist then logic is just a product of randomness and without any binding authority. For logic to be possible you need God
Logic isnt a product of randomness its ontologically necessary. The impossibility of the contrary shows that it is. How can a world or reality exist without logic to govern things.

Also if gods nature is logic then its also “random” by your own standard since not even god decides his own nature
Logic is grounded in God relfects his unchanging nature
Ok so if its part of his nature then logic is the nature of reality itself
We know that it is not Satan because of divine revelation
Divine revelation is also subjective. Yo have no way to know if any revelation is truly from the divine or from the divine tricking you,schizophrenia, simply a natural delusion, or other things
God is the logos
How does this address anything
God is not the same as reality tho?

For knowledge and logic to be possible there must be an unchanging source.
No there doesnt. If it needs to be sourced but the nature of god is logic then god himself would need to be source. Again if its just gods nature then i can say the same for reality
That is why i pressupose God. U may call this circular reasoning, but u would also presuppose logic, which only makes sense if God exists. So attempting to deny God is reliant on a rational, orderly universe existing which again can only exist if God is the ultimate source
Its circular reasoning definitionally lmao. Also wdym i pressupose logic of course i do its self evident. In order to falsify it you need to use it. God on the other hand isnt self evident so pressuposing it doesnt even remotely have a basis

All you need is the is. If something is objectively bad by nature then u have morals under atheism. If your asking me to prove whether something is wrong that is irrelevant to whether something can be objectively wrong by nature. And again the is ought problem still stands for religion. In fact its worse. If you say murder is wrong you cant prove it because you appeal to a divine being. I can appeal to another divine being which says murder is right and by your own standard youve just refuted yourself

Not gonna convince you so wont even try, if you were forced to be a believer which religion do you lean towards the most?

I translate for you nigger.

When there is order there ist intelligence. For example, if you go to a walk in the forest, and you see a cellphone, or something as simple as a stone point attached to a stick or just two rocks one on top of the other; If you have a sense of intelligence you would know that someone did it, why? Because it has a certain order and therefore an intelligent being did it.

Now, what do you think the brainless atheists will tell you? "IT WAS A COINCIDENCE", yes nigger, it was a coincidence that a fucking cell phone came out of fucking nowhere in the forest, unironically atheist view life that way, that's why they all eat soy, plants and are depressed.

Is logic self evident tho?
If diffrent cultures and people see diffrent things as logical or illogical which one is the right one?

How would u prove logic aswell?

God is self evident because he is necessary for logic to even work

We are both presupposing
