God

"However, I can counter your argument that there is no proof that he lives by asking, is there any proof that he doesn't?" First of all, you still haven't presented any evidence for existence. The only thing closest to evidence you've said is that the world is amazing and that there are "too many coincidences". How could I possibly show that he doesn't exist? It's a logical impossibility, the Burden of Proof is completely on the believer here. That's like me asking you to prove that there ISN'T an invisible, intangible, supernatural, silent T-Rex behind you at all times. You can't. However, towards the end of this round I'll provide something that comes pretty close to what you're asking for, given that you believe in the classic Christian God. "Now, I guessing you're probably not going to, so I'll continue my argument." I've heard of the movie, might watch it sometime. However I'd request that you put any evidence presented in the movie in textual form for this debate if you'd like to use it. "...the "Big Bang" you would have to have two things that would have collided together so that the Big Bang could have happened" The Big Bang is not a collision of anything. It's an expansion. "...but if there's no God where did those things come from? Other than from God, there is no logical explanation." Then let me ask you where God came from. If you say something like "he was always here", why can't we just say the same about whatever existed before the Big Bang? If you say something like "he's outside of time", why can't we just say the same thing about whatever existed before the Big Bang? "do you think that somehow a planet made from dust ended up in exactly the right place in the universe for humans to maintain life for thousands of years, by accident? I think not." Well, perhaps you think not because you haven't considered how many planets there are. By some estimates, there are something like 10^24 (which is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) in the observable universe. Seems unreasonable to think that in all of those planets, there couldn't be a single one that ended up in a spot with conditions good for life without "holy" intervention. "I firmly believe that you should try talking to God again and if it doesn't work do it again, and again, and again, until it does and I'm sure that one day you'll come to the conclusion that God does live and that he loves you more than you can comprehend." I've been looking for him all my life and haven't found him. Your firm belief carries just as much as mine, can't be used as an argument. In fact, I'd like to contest his "love" for me, if he even exists. I assume you think he loves everyone, so why not create a nice world for everyone where we can be happy? Doesn't seem like love to me... In any case, you asked for an argument against the existence of God. I will make one against the existence of the traditional omnipotent, omniscient, omni-benevolent Christian God. If God is omniscient, he knows all evil. If he is omni-benevolent, then he would want to remove all evil. If he is omnipotent, then he's capable of removing all evil. We see that evil is not, in fact, removed. This means that either God doesn't know everything, or he can't remove evil, or he simply doesn't want to because he's not good. There's also a problem with omnipotence itself, known as the "omnipotence paradox". Goes something like this: Can God create a rock that he himself can't lift? If you say yes, that means he's not omnipotent because he couldn't lift the wrong. If you say no, then he's also not omnipotent because he couldn't complete the task. I await your response.
