Who created god? What do you mean by god? I have yet to hear any logical argument for god. It all ends up relying on faith and mysticism.
One person's flaw is another's feature.
Idk what you mean
I get the impression you find the combination of lack of rigor and unanswered questions to be uncompelling, but for reasons I can't relate to, some consider that to be a feature rather than a bug.
Reason over faith all the time for me, that’s for sure
People need a value structure. That's why we needed god. The abstract ideal. Now we also have bitcoin
A philosophy based on reason and logic is superior IMO. I like Objectivism
Unfortunately we are emotional beings with a monkey brain. Human's need to deify something. Its either a religion or god, which gives us a structure how to act morally. Or it's a harming ideology or person. Deifying humans is the worst we can do. The 20th century makes it verifiable! So If we start to deify something that gives us the wrong incentives, we see chaos. That's happening all around the world right now! Bitcoin is a value structure/ideology/ belief system that gives us the right incentives! #Slayyourheros #abandonideology
I recommend checking out Objectivism. An extremely consistent philosophy that places man’s life as his standard of value. Man’s happiness as the moral purpose of his life.
What arguments for God’s existence have you examined in depth and found inadequate?
All

Yes, Christians should make a positive case for belief in God. Not sure why your meme has someone yelling something dumb. Looks like a strawman argument poorly articulated. And, atheists should make a case for what they believe. Are you claiming to know there is no God or are you agnostic?
It definitely takes a cheap shot at religious people with the yelling 😅 I tend to agree with Leonard Peikoff on agnostic vs. atheism. I really don’t care though. It is implied that if there is evidence of something I once thought of as impossible I would change my mind. Being an atheist to me is saying that based on all the facts of the universe I know, I have no reason to believe in god. http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/agnosticism.html
