Atheist Argument Analysis

. Another atheist argument is that if God was the first cause, God must himself have been the effect of some cause. If not, then the premise that every effect has a cause is untrue, and God could not have created the universe because he could not have been "the first cause." There is just as much evidence that some other phenomenon created the universe, such as the Big Bang. Another argument for atheism examines the presence of evil on Earth. If God is omnibenevolent, how can he allow such evil to occur in the world? If he is omnipotent, he would surely have the ability to end unnecessary suffering caused by this evil. Also, if he were omniscient then he must have known this unnecessary evil would occur and could have put a stop to it long before it started.

The most comprehensive description of the 4-omni God can be found in the Bible. In the same body of text are countless contradictions to his 4-omni abilities, a few of which I …show more content…

The fundamental argument for atheism is that there is no evidence or proof for the existence of God, just like the fundamental argument for theism is that there is no evidence that there isn 't a God! This cyclical nature of the arguments arrises because of the lack of physical proof. We can only speculate and theorize as to what actually happened at the "beginning" of our universe. Until science unearths further proof as to the nature of our creation, we simply can 't know for sure. Another huge contrast between the atheist and theist
