Religionists - If Your Deity Was Proven To Be Unreal, How Would You React?

[Ben Kenobi]

British born and bred, old fellow.
Perhaps you have me confused with someone else...

No. I honestly thought you were German. Looks like the egg is on my face.

I thought you were not English because of your map that you made, and some of the misspellings.

Well, imagine the pope has announced that god is not real.

How would you react?

I would encourage all my Catholic friends to join my denomination.

Usually because of my username too, that people think I am German.

Was that one of my maps for Civ2?

Yeah, I helped you with all the city locations on the grid. All 252 cities.

The ironic thing is, Occam's razor was part of Occam's proof of God's existence (his proof without the razor proves an infinite number of Gods exist).

Reminds me of a quote (a real one) that was in someone's sig a looong while back - "I contend that we are both atheists; I simply believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you don't believe in all of the other gods, you'll understand why I don't believe in yours."

"Faith" is not an argument. "Faith" means "I'm going to completely ignore logic and blindly cling to something comfortable".

As opposed to a more logical categorization of an entire way of life based on stereotypical notions encountered and reinforced by chance wackos you met on the internet?

I am surprised the most obvious answer did not come up: switch to another god!

If the monotheistic god of Judaism-Christiniaty-Islam is proven false, you still have zorastranism, buddhism hinduism or some animist religions to turn to.

GePap -- Christians believe in the only one god that exists -- God with the capital "G."

Our beliefs will never be proven to be false.

Yawn- the premise of the thread is that this is "proven" false, and what you do then. Shees.

Our beliefs will never be proven to be false.

You can say the same for 90% of religions. Your point?

[MrFun]

Point??

That was suppose to be BAM statement.
