  • Hundreds of Proofs of God's Existence!
     OP - June 09, 2011, 10:39 PM

    At ease, soldier! This is only a joke  Smiley

    The following is a piece I copied from The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.
    Amazing book and I particularly enjoyed this bit.


    Quote
    The ontological argument, like all a priori arguments for the
    existence of God, reminds me of the old man in Aldous Huxley's
    Point Counter Point who discovered a mathematical proof of the
    existence of God:
    You know the formula, m over nought equals infinity, m
    being any positive number? Well, why not reduce the
    equation to a simpler form by multiplying both sides by
    nought. In which case you have m equals infinity times
    nought. That is to say that a positive number is the product
    of zero and infinity. Doesn't that demonstrate the
    creation of the universe by an infinite power out of nothing?
    Doesn't it?
    Or there is the notorious eighteenth-century debate on the existence
    of God, staged by Catherine the Great between Euler, the Swiss
    mathematician, and Diderot, the great encyclopedist of the
    Enlightenment. The pious Euler advanced upon the atheistic
    Diderot and, in tones of the utmost conviction, delivered his
    challenge: 'Monsieur, (a + bn)/n = x, therefore God exists. Reply!'
    Diderot was cowed into withdrawal, and one version of the story
    has him withdrawing all the way back to France.
      Cheesy
    Euler was employing what might be called the Argument from
    Blinding with Science (in this case mathematics). David Mills, in
    Atheist Universe, transcribes a radio interview of himself by a
    religious spokesman, who invoked the Law of Conservation of
    Mass-Energy in a weirdly ineffectual attempt to blind with science:
    'Since we're all composed of matter and energy, doesn't that
    scientific principle lend credibility to a belief in eternal life?' Mills
    replied more patiently and politely than I would have, for what the
    interviewer was saying, translated into English, was no more than:
    'When we die, none of the atoms of our body (and none of the
    energy) are lost. Therefore we are immortal.'
    Even I, with my long experience, have never encountered wishful
    thinking as silly as that. I have, however, met many of the wonderful
    'proofs' collected at
    http://www.godlessgeeks.com/LINKS/GodProof.htm
    a richly comic numbered list of 'Over Three
    Hundred Proofs of God's Existence'. Here's a hilarious half-dozen,
    beginning with Proof Number 36.


    And without further ado, here they are!

    36 Argument from Incomplete Devastation: A plane crashed
    killing 143 passengers and crew. But one child survived
    with only third-degree burns. Therefore God exists.

    37 Argument from Possible Worlds: If things had been
    different, then things would be different. That would be
    bad. Therefore God exists.

    38 Argument from Sheer Will: I do believe in God! I do
    believe in God! I do I do I do. I do believe in God!
    Therefore God exists.

    39 Argument from Non-belief: The majority of the world's
    population are non-believers in Christianity. This is just
    what Satan intended. Therefore God exists.

    40 Argument from Post-Death Experience: Person X died an
    atheist. He now realizes his mistake. Therefore God exists.

    41 Argument from Emotional Blackmail: God loves you.
    How could you be so heartless as not to believe in him?
    Therefore God exists.

    Hope you enjoyed these, there are hundreds and I'm about to go read the rest!  grin12  Nude nerd

    I made this one up:

    ARGUMENT FROM SELF PRESERVATION:
    (1) I will be killed if I say God does not exist.
    (2) I'm afraid of that.
    (3) Therefore, God exists.

     Cheesy

    Oh and no. 12 reminds me of someone (ahem!)

    ARGUMENT FROM FEAR
    (1) If there is no God then we're all going to not exist after we die.
    (2) I'm afraid of that.
    (3) Therefore, God exists.

    Haha, I remember that anecdote! However, it most probably didn't happen since Diderot dabbled in mathematics himself and would not have been fazed by such an elementary equation.

    This reminds me of a hilarious conversation I had with a friend once.

    Me: I don't believe in a god. I'm more drawn towards science.
    Friend: SO YOU BELIEVE THAT SCIENCE CREATED THE UNIVERSE?!

    At which point my face was like http://www.myfacewhen.com/202/

    ^ This. The most common variant of this that I've seen is argument by esoterica:

    1. Knowledge of the Unseen proves the existence of God.
    2. You need knowledge of God to apprehend the Unseen.
    3. Therefore, God exists.

    I've seen too many people use this "argument":

    ARGUMENT FROM BEAUTY, a.k.a. DESIGN/TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (II)
    (1) Isn't that baby/sunset/flower/tree beautiful?
    (2) Only God could have made them so beautiful.
    (3) Therefore, God exists.


    Also:

    PARENTAL ARGUMENT
    (1) My mommy and daddy told me that God exists.
    (2) Therefore, God exists.


    And some of the funnier ones:

    ARGUMENT FROM A BAD TRIP
    (1) I went to a party and took LSD.
    (2) I saw demons attacking me.
    (3) Then Jesus came and drove the demons away.
    (4) So I joined the Assemblies of God.
    (5) Therefore, God exists.

    ARGUMENT FROM BLINDNESS (II)
    (1) God is love.
    (2) Love is blind.
    (3) Stevie Wonder is blind.
    (4) Therefore, Stevie Wonder is God.
    (5) Therefore, God exists.

    Hi everyone!

     Ask yourself..

    Can you see your face without looking in the mirror?

    That's why, you can't see the existence of God.

    If you can see your own face directly without a mirror.

    Then you can see God's existence... dance

    Argument from hatred for Music:

    2) I'm a devoted Muslim and I've always hated music.
    3) Allah exists.

    The fact that Music is actually forbidden in Islam isn't commonly known between westerners, I've made a little research in Arabic about that but translating it into English will take me a lot of effort, I might do it later though. If anyone is interested in the Arabic one you can message me.

     there is no logical proof for god in christianity from all the christians i talked to but for islam we have enough proof and i have talked to dozens of atheist and convinced them  God
    its simple really

    ill summaries because it takes long to prove, btw im going to use a deductive argument for all the people who live of empirical evidence i.e. athiest  Wink,

    1.the universe can 'pop' into existance and 2. it cannot just be...
    so it has to have a cause
    and the cause has to be infinite because then the two above has to be accepted so some where down the line of causes must be an infinite starting point. and this infinite starting point must have a will because since it is infinite it must have chosen for the universe,to come to be  , it wasn't due to chain reactions and this infinite starting point with a will must have power and knowledge for the universe to exist with laws

    i hope thats enough for you Asalamu alaykum
