Blasphemy Challenge



TXatheist says he's an atheist "because there is no God." One of the books TXatheist is holding in his hand is a book by atheist Dan Barker who says that you can't prove the non-existence of something. How then can TXatheist make a universal negative claim that there is no God then? Has he traveled throughout the whole wide world at the same time and at the same places simultaneously, thus proving there is no God?

TXatheist says God is nothing more than an imaginary friend for people who can't deal with reality. So, people like Martin Luther King, Jr. and Gandhi and Sir Isaac Newton couldn't deal with reality? Does TXatheist like insulting people like this?

TXatheist says reality is that you are born and then you die once and that's it. And how does TXatheist know this? Has he personally experienced this? He only assumes this without giving any argument.

And he says because we only live and die once that's why he's an atheist. Yet he doesn't give any evidence of justification for this. He thinks the person who makes the claim should have the burden of proof. Since he made the claim we live and die once, he should give us a justification since it's his burden of proof.

Conclusion:

TXatheist won't prove any of his claims. And he hasn't shown God to be an "imaginary friend." Furthermore, he refuses to show that theists who believe in the existence of God can't deal with reality. He only has blind assumptions. No reasoning or evidence at all!
