Is it so impossible to think that's something might be eternal? Just because we ourselves are not, does that imply that NOTHING is? What about something outside of time? I mean, we are getting into some interesting philosophy when we start talking about things outside our own dimensional concepts, but is it so hard to conceive after all? I don't get the malfunction here. It strikes me that an atheist lacks an imagination, for one. I mean, wow. What a boring world to live in, to only accept that which you can see. No wonder you all believe the world is flat. It looks flat. Ergo, it is flat.
I won't dispute the simplistic use of logic. The world does look flat out the window. Ergo, it must be. To an atheist, well, I've never seen a deity, ergo, there isn't one. I have never been the personal recipient of a miracle, ergo, they don't occur. From a so-called Zetetic perspective...
I don't deny, from that perspective, its pretty hard to gainsay atheism. Of course, taking logic further is something an atheist seems unable to do.
