I was sitting in line at the Department of Motor Vehicles to get my drivers license, and som fat mouthbreather came into the building with this vacant smile on his face and a shirt that said "God doesn't believe in atheists". This got me thinking: do theists think they're actually making a point with those shirts? What point are they "making"?

I think they THINK they're trying to be inflammatory and start an argument so they can get all ruffled... but it just won't work.  I see that phrase and I just roll my eyes.

Mouthbreather? Excellent! I love mouthbreathers, they bring me so much joy. I'm sure that was the greatest quote it has ever heard!

That shirt is just silly! God believes in all of his creation, whether they believe in him or not. Why do you think GOD finds atheists? I know of many atheists who have converted to GOD.

So if Paul Bunyan believes in the grand canyon, should that be proof Paul Bunyan exists?

No, but that proves that the Grand Canyon exists..

So if his big blue ox believes in Shiva, that means that Shiva exists?


Congratulations, by your logic every entity anyone ever believed in exists.

what are you talking about? I was not wondering if the grand canyon exists.  :brick:

Lumberjack legends
Bunyan's birth was strange, as are the births of many mythic heroes, as it took three storks to carry the infant (ordinarily, one stork could carry several babies and drop them off at their parents' homes). When he was old enough to clap and laugh, the vibration broke every window in the house. When he was seven months old, he sawed the legs off his parent's bed in the middle of the night. Paul and Babe the Blue Ox, his companion, dug the Grand Canyon when he dragged his axe behind him. He created Mount Hood by piling rocks on top of his campfire to put it out.

Quote from: "Sophus":idea:

So....

God is all knowing. God doesn't believe in atheists. God doesn't believe in other gods. God is an atheist. God doesn't believe in himself. Thus God doesn't exist.

............did I get it right?     lol. God believes in atheists because GOD said atheists would exist long before atheism existed..

religion has been a part of mankind since the dawn of human kind.

can you prove to me atheism was embedded in the mind during creation? because according to modern science. "God" is programmed into the human brain.

But technically, could I say that god was an atheist as God doesn't believe in any other omnipotent, omnipresent, self aware being who is more powerful than itself?  IF God is not an atheist, then what God does God believe in?
