Well, aside from the factual and scientific debunking of literally hundreds of claims that are in the bible, no.


Christian god, not generic god.

And the burden of proof is on the person making the claim, not the one suggesting that all available data points to it not existing.


Agree.

Take, for example, Scientology. PROVE to me that there weren't aliens that came to earth and dropped people or some shite into volcanoes and whatever else they believe. And that there isn't an alien overlord that rules the universe. I can make up anything I want to explain the universe and given your approach of "prove to me it doesn't exist" my made up explanation would be no less viable than yours.


I'm fond of Russell's Teapot, as well.

You understand that you're aggressively shouting at an atheist, right?

I didn't think I was aggressively shouting

I used the Bible and the Christian god as that's where I was raised, but you could substitute just about any religious text and it would still apply.

The funny thing is, when we point to those things that have been debunked or disproven then we are not to take the text at it's word. But if it's something that that particular person aggressively believes in and they can find a passage in the Bible (or whatever) on it? Then it's time to start quoting scripture.
