“Asking for empirical evidence for God is like asking for geological evidence for math. It’s a
nonsensical category error.”
~Christian(See

Christian adeptness for bullshitting is profound and disturbing. I discussedhow Christians
hijacked philosophyin the past, but this point cannot be stressed enough due to their
philosophical flimflam that fulfills their secondary purpose of convincing nonbelievers.
Secondary, you say? What could be more important than converting nonbelievers?
Maintaining the herd.
The more literate Christians realize the difficulty of converting people with their asinine arguments and concentrate
on shooting down sound arguments or “reality” to keep the flock from straying too far into critical thought. Want
proof? Read the comment again and consider what this “philosopher” tries to pass off as a meaningful.
The Christian “philosopher,” like all Christians, must dismiss any criticism via philosophy, as in this case, by
arguing thecategory fallacy caused by my assumption that something as “immaterial” as God would
have testable evidence. His argument assumes “God is not subject to empirical evidence and
thatit makes no sense to apply empirical testing standards to God.” Conveniently, the
most effective means of proving athing’splausibility cannot be
used to prove the Christian God.
That is bullshit!
Consider what is said:
You cannot apply empirical or factual evidence to God.
Of course, you can and should expect empirical evidence since that is how rational creatures operate. Christian
philosophers argue this point by claiming God exists outside of the material world and cannot be tested by science.
Yet they still want you to believe, so they begin arguing from the point of possibility — where Christians
must always argue. You can see this line of BS unfolding with the immediate introduction of
Cosmological arguments as proof since these implausible theories arethe only
evidence for Christianity’spossibility.
If your head is swimming in boredom, I understand, so let’s return to the purpose of his argument. Arguing against
factual evidence proves nothing except that he has a poorly constructed, derivative claim,
ultimatelyleading to the noncontingent God or first mover argument. The more likely purpose is to show
Christians there exists no need for facts or proof, so they can just accept what they already believed since he has
“disproved” my argument by claiming empirical evidence does not apply to God.
The argument keeps Christians satisfied by flimflamming them with fallacies to deny the right to ask for evidence.
This tactic works because Christians are already biased and need only the most ludicrous of proof to maintain that
belief. All over the internet, Christian metaphysicians deliberately shoot from the hip pithy, jargon-filled
responses aimed at critics because the “philosophers” know this tactic works.
Why? Because they know their fellow Christian’s illiteracy and lack of critical thought.
You can argue this was not the intention of the “Christian philosopher,” and perhaps it wasn’t in this case, but what
a coincidence his comment forms the same modus operandi of the Christian fraudsters. They never prove anything about
their God, never argue with facts or practicality, never cite empirical evidence, and never pass up the opportunity
to voice some uncompelling or absurd argument. All that matters is satisfying their fellow ignorant Christians and
keeping the herd together.
Deliberately-placed self-confirming arguments fill YouTube and social media for Christians to discover. Many famous
people help herd the Christians to Christ, even if they have not entirely admitted they are Christians. Here is one
of those arguments now, told by the supposed genius Jordan Peterson:
You can’t know God, and so, can you know something exists that you can’t understand? And the answer is,
well, then maybe that is why you only see God’s back in some real sense, right? You get hints, and maybe you get
hints if you open yourself up in the right way. ~Jordan Peterson
The Best Argument for the Existence of God - Jordan Peterson
We cannot know God so we should believe in God in order to get the proof so we can have meaning since the only way to
have meaning is by believing in the divine. Makes perfect sense, Jordan! You wowed the Christians once again!
Here, Jordan Peterson and Bret Weinstein discuss the nature and value of truth. Notice how the conversation of truth
manifests possibilities and value based on metaphysical ideas, metaphors, and how these compare with literal truth.
Think about what they say.
Hint: Notice how quick Weinstein says he would never lie about porcupines throwing
needles after claiming it is literally false yet metaphorically true and by heeding the falsehood we come out
ahead.
The fact that Christian “philosophers” and others share this MO of arguing nonsense when trying to convince people of
possibilities, like God instead of plausible realities, clarifies how little they think of their fellow Christians.
They just assume Christians are complete idiots who will believe anything.
Reevaluating the historical context of Jesus' life and teachings, we must acknowledge the contradictions between his emphasis on social justice and the economic realities of ancient Judea, including the activities of those who profited from the temple trade, and consider how this might have influenced his reactions to such practices.
With attributes mirroring both contemporary myths and children's stories, the Divine Feats of Christianity exhibit a level of implausibility that would be solely accepted by its devotees. These are the 10 most preposterous Biblical Wonders.
The authority of scripture in Christianity elevates the Bible above all else, shaping believers' behaviors and beliefs, which results in harmful consequences for both individual and collective well-being.
Christianity manifests numerous potential hazards that surprisingly fail to capture the attention of its followers. The Christian faith holds various dangers, yet its devotees seem unaware of such threats.
Christians must be the most dense individuals on the planet to believe that their religion is an appropriate discussion while supposedly educating children.
While internet trolls ruin social media interactions, Christian trolls are often the worst because their behavior undermines users' confidence and trust in one another.
The Christian worldview rests on falsehoods, reinforced by further embellishments. Grasp the motive for every believer to be deceitful and comprehend the significance of exposing Christians as liars.
As a part of their misleading discourse, Christians often insist on their possession of perfect family ideals even when facing hardships common to all other people.

An examination of the meaning within Psalm 24 provides an insightful glimpse into the complexities surrounding Bible interpretation. To unearth the deeper significance hidden in this scripture and gain competence in deciphering religious texts, one must first immerse themselves in various contexts such as history, culture, and linguistics. Additionally, a robust understanding of hermeneutics - the science and art of biblical interpretation - will equip individuals with the tools necessary to unravel the intricate layers of meaning encompassed within scripture.

Christianity infiltrates every individual within a Christian-dominated society, but its adherents display the most harmful effects of this belief system. Among these detrimental outcomes are their fervent promotion of MAGA (Make America Great Again) ideals, the manifestation of hate against specific groups, propensity for violence, irrational reasoning, deeply entrenched racism, and possibly other destructive characteristics.
How anyone could watch FOX News, any other Christian media outlet, or even traditional media and not recognize the outright bullshit or bias proves the stupidity of Christians.

Mythologies derived from Christianity are unlike fairy tales about enchanting creatures like unicorns or legends of mysterious beings such as Bigfoot. Spreading falsehoods in the name of Christianity reinforces white superiority, hatred towards women, and overall malevolence.
The continuance of a mindset that led to burning heretics alive and drowning innocent women in the name of witchcraft is astonishing. However, it's apparent this same mentality still exists, resulting in people succumbing to madness when their faith manifests as mental illness. This situation consistently draws strong reactions from communities.
Christianity's influence disrupts the rational process of striking a balance between essential human requirements and moral standards, consequently allowing its adherents to reconcile contradictions inherent in religious teachings by providing justifications for these inconsistencies. This phenomenon creates an atmosphere of discord as society attempts to adapt to these unsettling deviations from a rational understanding of life's necessities.
The majority could be deemed mentally unstable, save for those Christians upholding the notion of a phallus-fixated deity fabricating existence, slaying its own child, then electing to disappear.
Both critics of Christianity and those who practice its tenets tend to scrutinize the belief system in their own unique ways, either uncovering contradictions or advocating for its proper understanding. Through these discussions, it becomes apparent that there exist sinister facets of Christianity's nature - a parasitic influence and potential danger which transcend mere hypocrisy or the religious value ascribed to it.
Christians want you to believe that their religion is normal and believing a nonsensical story based on ridiculous book is good way to create law and policy. Just look at all those good Christians dismantling the government at this time.
It is striking that certain Christians believe they can deceive others into accepting implausible ideas, as if they assume that anyone who disagrees with them is intellectually inferior.

Adherence to a restrictive belief system leaves Christians woefully uninformed, disconnected from the real world, and incapable of basic reading skills; as a result, they frequently pose inquiries that can be effortlessly addressed through casual reading practice.
The Christian ideology is a hoax, and if you adhere to it, you are essentially cheating yourself. If you promote it, others become victims of this fraudulent scheme, and if you educate your children in its principles, you're perpetrating the deception on them as well.
Adultery within small-town Arizona presents a myriad of dangers to devout Christian gentlemen looking for sexual satisfaction supplied by sinful, domesticated women.

Although the history of bullying is vast, a critical revelation only surfaced within the last few decades: that the majority of bullies are Christians who learn to perpetuate prejudice as they transition into their adult lives, becoming bigots and racists in the process.
Recognizing the deep-rooted connection between white supremacy and Christianity, the perceptive Malcolm X foresaw the implications of this relationship. In current times, we must consciously separate our understanding of someone's faith as a Christian from their identification with the Republican political ideology.
To gauge Christianity based on its followers reflects the Christian belief system since Christians are supposed to intrinsically embody and contribute to the essence of their religious beliefs.
Some uninformed Christians think critics are lying about Christianity because they fear facing truths that could challenge their existing perspectives.
In an attempt to impose their religious beliefs upon students, Christian educators like Larry Volk push for the incorporation of Bibles into school curricula and for schools to teach a specific Christian rendition of history, regardless of whether such actions align with or violate the established separation between church and state.
Christians are a scourge on the modern world. They hate progress, they hate minorities, and they hate all other religions. Yet, they point fingers to each other claiming fake Christians. They are all the same.
Recognizing the potential for online discourse to become entrenched and unproductive, Christian communities resort to defensiveness and counterarguments to maintain a sense of control, rather than engaging in open-minded discussions that foster growth and understanding.
