“For those who want to pray for me to "find God," please don't waste your prayers. If you really think God is listening to you, then please use those precious moments to ask God to care for the sick and dying, and leave me out of it. I'm happy without my faith and with living my life in the here and now. Besides, thousands before you have prayed for me to find God and it hasn't worked yet. Why would God value your request over theirs?” LifeChristianPrayerPrayOpen HeartFind GodDavid G Mcafee Author:David G. McAfee
“Did the Abrahamic God know that, by "divinely inspiring" the book of Genesis and other tales in the Bible, that He would cause millions to impede scientific understandings of our origins and push for myth to be taught in schools? Shouldn't he have left out the bit about humans being made from dust and ribs, knowing that fact?” ChristianScienceMythGenesisAllahImpedeAbrahamic GodCreation Narrative Author:David G. McAfee
“According to your holy book, every single Buddhist, Jew, Hindu, Muslim, follower of various minor traditions or sects, those who do not affiliate themselves with a religious tradition and the approximately 2.74 billion humans who have never had the 'privilege' of hearing the word of your Messiah will be sentenced to eternal damnation in a lake of fire—regardless of moral standings or positive worldly accomplishments. If this sounds like a fair proposition to you, then I bite my tongue—but I honestly believe that the majority of Christians do not agree with these doctrinal assertions, and instead categorize themselves as 'Christians' out of cultural familiarity or perhaps out of complete ignorance in regards to the topic.” ChristianHeavenHellWorshipJewBuddhistJoshua ProjectOnly Way Through Jesus Book:Disproving Christianity and Other Secular Writings Source: Disproving Christianity and Other Secular Writings
“Without cultural indoctrination, all of us would be atheists. Or, more specifically, while many may dream up their own gods as did our ancestors, they would certainly not be ‘Christian’ or ‘Jewish’ or ‘Muslim’ or any other established religion. That’s because, without the texts and churches and familial instruction, there are no independent evidences that any specific religion is true. Outside of the Bible, how would one hear of Jesus? The same goes for every established religion.” MayDreamWould BeChristianJesusChurchEvidenceIndependentAtheistInstructionAncestorIndoctrination Author:David G. McAfee
“Christian apologists who argue that a story about an empty tomb is convincing evidence of a resurrected body are likely unfamiliar with Occam’s razor, which states that among competing hypotheses, the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions should be selected. They assume that the most likely explanation is miraculous resurrection through some unproven divine connection, but more likely scenarios include a stolen body, a mismarked grave, a planned removal, faulty reports, creative storytelling, edited scriptures, etc. No magic required.” ShouldStatesStoriesBodyChristianCreativeMagicDivineEvidenceEmptyConnectionsAssumingArguingScriptureGravesStorytellingExplanationAssumptionReportsEtcResurrectionCompetingHypothesisStolenConvincingMiraculousScenariosTombsUnfamiliarSelectedRazorsRemovalEditedOccam's RazorConvincing Evidence Author:David G.
