I recall an episode of "South Park" where God said that he was himself a Buddhist. Buddhists don't believe in a god, but are apparently still religious. So maybe God is like those Buddhists who is still religious, but does not actually believe in a god or something like that. I guess God never looked at Rene Descartes' "I think, therefore I am", because if he didn't believe in himself he probably wouldn't exist by that logic.

Guys, guys, guys. God isn't a he. I think that God is just an "it", but since you're all saying he, stop. say she. It even says in the bible. God gave birth to us all.

By the way, i'm not religious.
I'm just saying this for all you Catholics/Christians/Jews/anyone I missed

Please don't hate on me

Dude seriously you just started between believers and non-believer thread and there's no point of this but people arguing about if this is real or not. Thanks for joining in the club dude.

That would work if you didn't get the definition completely wrong.

But here's a thought.

Atheism is the disbelief or lack of belief in a god or gods. Disbelief in the none acceptance of something, in this case the claim that supports the belief in a god.

God wouldn't have a belief of his own existence. He would have full knowledge of it. So technically he wouldn't support the belief.

So you might be able to swing it that way.


It's not the lack of crimes that values your morality but your capacity for contrition.

Well, he is depending on what kind of religion. For Christianity, Judaism, and Islam yes he is an atheist. He is announced the only God in the universe. And since those religions say he is the only God in the universe then that means God is an atheist.


Dreams with the concept of prosperity and happiness are premonitions, only then you can decide next.

In the texts of the Abrahamic religions God is referred to as "he", therefore that is what we should refer to him as.

So you're saying God doesn't believe in the existence of a God despite the fact he himself is a God.

Well, assuming we're talking about the Judeo-Christian lone, omnipotent creator God, He'd be very different from human atheists in that He would've created both inferior yet self-aware beings and His own eternal enemy (the Devil). He probably wouldn't be inclined to believe in anything greater than Himself, but those abilities and their philosophical implications might separate Him from the human equivalent.


The simple fact is that some people will never be happy, no matter how good their lives are.

That's not how that quote works.
