“"If evolution/naturalism is true, then who cares about anything at all? We're all just pond scum with eyeballs anyway, so why spend so much time fighting against religious faith?"
Because I don’t share the religious faith of those who would legislate their superstition and make me live by it.
“In atheism, there is no truth, no right and wrong, nothing at all beyond our senses, but they scream if anybody disagrees with them. . . .”
Well, maybe we scream because you’re lying. There’s no divinely ordained truth, but that doesn’t mean nothing is factual.
There’s not moral lawgiver, but we have developed right and wrong as we evolved, as social animals. You guys go straight to nihilism, though, if you can’t live in your god fantasy.
“Not a religion? Actions speak louder than words. Just look at the juvenile mockery, the straw men, the hatred they show for all who do not belong to the religion called Atheism.”
So, you’re saying the nature of religion is name-calling and strawmen attacks?
Well, that matches most Christains I know, so you might have a point.
“Those sites are filled with this crap, yet they think themselves to be rational and intelligent."
Still haven’t actually show ‘this crap’ to be a religion rather than just facts.
“You might also try reminding them that much of their belief system relies on hypothetical entities in physics (which means blind faith in theories that can't be proved)."
I certainly don’t think that accepting the mainstream view of the experts at the far end of peer review is ‘blind faith.’ But, of course, you stick to blind faith so you think that’s what everyone else does.
“For example, the Big Bang theory is coming under increasing criticism by a growing number of scientists, most of whom are atheists.”
Okay. I’m not a physicist, I don’t have any oar in the Big Bang water. Disprove it if you can, see if it changes my atheism one whit.
“Atheists were not there to see the BB yet they have absolute blind faith in it, even when many of their own 'high priests' have abandoned it."
Not blind faith, that’s your strawman attack.
“If all life evolved, and living things are dependent upon each other, then how did they all evolve in perfect balance?”
They’re not in perfect balance. Look at the Rabbits in australia. If an omniscient being built Australia knowing that rabbits would arrive, wouldn’t he have given Dingos the instinct to eat them, too?
“This takes more blind faith that anything most other religions ask for."
No, it really doesn’t.
"Another tool in the atheists' bag is to make up rules for debate that tilt the game in their favor.”
Only because you guys can’t be trusted to debate honestly.
“They'll insist that you can't use the Bible in any of your arguments, yet they'll use their own religious writings which assert that naturalism is true.”
ALl of science is based on naturalism. That doesn’t make it a religious writing, it makes it a definitive reference.
You’re just butthurt that your holy writ doesn’t actually qualify as a scientific reference, what with being bronze-age stories and anonymous tales.
“They get to operate on the basis of their biased world view while banning yours."
If you’re going to debate science, use science.
If you’re going to give a sermon, do it in church.
