If there is a God, then it is most definately the Christian God.

It is rather simple to prove in logical terms that God, in general, does not exist. My arguments are as follows - Argument 1 - The following augment requires the acceptance of two basic ground rules. ï¿½ If ground rule #1 is broken, I will have demonstrated the impossibility of god's existence. ï¿½ If ground rule #2 is broken, I will have demonstrated a failure, on your part, to sustain a valid contrasting perspective. Here are the ground rules: GROUND RULE # 1: 1) If the very definition of god is proven to be self-contradictory, god's existence will be considered impossible. Examples of self-contradiction: This box is void of any content. By adding absolutely nothing, it will have something in it. ï¿½ Or. .. Joe was never here, therefore he was. You must agree that self-contradictions, like those above, are not acceptable, and based in logic. GROUND RULE # 2: 2) Ignorance will not be accepted as a substitute for knowledge. Example of ignorance being a substitute for knowledge: There is no way we can tell if there are rabbits on Pluto, therefore there are several hundred. All of them can fly. The deductive logic in the above example is unacceptable in any practical sense. The Christian God is said to be obvious. Now, what is the most relevant attribute of God we can see? What is god's most relevant attribute? In a word, what makes god, god? ï¿½ Answer: "His ability to Create" Dictionary definition: ï¿½Creation - The emergence of something where once there was nothing. A GROUND RULE WAS BROKEN - Number 1 The concept of creation is self-contradictory. The concept of creation is impossible. ï¿½ From "nothingness", only "nothing" can emerge. Given that creation, as a reality, is self-contradictory, god's existence is impossible. Argument 2. As the Christian God relies on the accuracy of the Christian Bible, I show it is errant. Astronomy. This universe is 13.5 billion years old and arose out of a cosmic singularity. No account of the development of this universe can be harmonized with the creation accounts in Genesis except that these accounts were pure mythic folklore. Archeology. There isn't any evidence for Israelites being slaves in Egypt for four hundred years, or that they wandered in the wilderness for 40 years, or that they conquered the land of Canaan. Geology. Confirms the slow evolutionary development of life in the sedimentary rock layers on a planet nearly 5 billion years old, just as astronomy confirms the slow evolutionary development of galaxy, star and planet formation. Geology also disconfirms that there was ever a universal flood which covered the earth. Brain Science. Confirms that strokes, seizers, and other illnesses stem from a brain malfunction and hence disconfirms that there is something called a mind or soul. If there is an immaterial mind where is it located? If God created us with a mind then there is no reason to expect that he also created us with a brain. Modern Medicine. Has achieved astounding results that such superstitious practices like exorcisms and blood letting and supernatural healing are delusional. The late Carl Sagan, said, "We can pray over the cholera victim, or we can give her 500 milligrams of tetracycline every 12 hours…the scientific treatments are hundreds or thousands of times more effective than the alternatives (like prayer). Even when the alternatives seem to work, we don't actually know that they played any role. " Voltaire said: "Prayer and arsenic will kill a cow. " Psychology. Confirms that who we are and how we behave are determined to an overwhelming degree before we reach the age of accountability. People are not evil so much as much they are sick. There is no rebellion against God. If God is omniscient then like the ultimate psychotherapist he knows why we do everything we do. There can be no wrathful God. I have other arguments, but to keep this in a manageable chunk for my opponent, I will rest my case here. I do reserve the right to bring them up in a later round, if my opponent is actually able to disprove my assertions. I do not claim originality in my arguments, only reiteration, for this is a topic for and of the Ages. Again, thanks wjmelements for an interesting topic, and I eagerly await your response.
