Lets take a little break from politics and have us a real atheist conversation.

Personally, I’m open to the idea of the existence of supernatural phenomena, and I believe mainstream religions are actually complicated incomplete stories full of misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and half-truths.

Basically, I think that these stories are not as simple and straightforward as they seem to be to religious people. I feel like there is a lot more to them. Concluding that all these stories are just made up or came out of nowhere is kind of hard for me.

    I’m done. Clearly you don’t want to engage in this conversation with any kind of good faith. You can only engage on the gotchas, the easy talking points. Enjoy your life, friend.

    I guess that was a lie.

    If you cannot see how simply saying “there’s no evidence” is pointless, frustrating, and outright rude, I don’t know what else to say.

    Since I assume you can see you’re in an atheism community, I don’t know what else you expected. A warm welcome for your faith-based beliefs?

      Buddy, we’re literally in a thread where someone asked what beliefs one might consider supernatural we have. I came here expecting a discussion, not someone trying to beat me with logic when it was never a competition.

        First you lie about ending the discussion and now you are lying to me about my own motivations. I don’t even know what you expect to happen when lying to me about me, but it is not a good look for you. It seems you have a lot of difficulty telling the truth.
