New to this board and want to know the rules? Have a question for atheists? Then you should probably read the FAQ (Updated: 3/19/15). It's not necessary, but don't be surprised if people ignore you if you don't elaborate further on a question already answered here, or the moderator does something you didn't expect.

hey /atheism/ whats some convincing proof of non-christian religions?

a lot of NDEs seem pretty convincing for the christian religion and some miracles seem damn impossible to rationally explain away for me http://listverse.com/2008/07/14/top-10-astonishing-miracles/

i was jsut thinknig convincing evidence for hinduism, buddhism, etc would make thi stuff less convincing

If I had a drink it would be spilt now.

Grossly exaggerated telltale stories, balsamed Lenin, money-grabbing fakes, people seeing what they want to see, Lourdes, the place which healed no one ever, because spontaneous remissions statistically happen and Lourdes didn't even cure that much.

lol

Well, for instance, some Jain monks do not eat or drink for years and they are still alive. It's the proof that their faith alone can feed their body.

Everyone knows they eat when noone is watching.

>hey /atheism/ whats some convincing proof of non-christian religions?

Same thing that would be cinvincing for Christianity: something that's defined consistently and makes testable predictions. Those predictions would then have to be properly and independently verified

>Everything there is the same kind of stupid bullshit you'd expect from Christianity but attributed to a different religion.

>hey /atheism/ whats some convincing proof of non-christian religions?

There is none because there is no proof of any religion. But as far as alleged miracles, there's the Hindu milk miracle, it was discussed in the original statuefag thread.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindu_milk_miracle

Also I heard about this time in I think it was ancient Japan when some people prayed and a tsunami came and wiped out their enemies but I can't remember when or where it happened so that's not very helpful, sorry. That's all I got.

>a lot of NDEs seem pretty convincing for the christian religion

Nah, people see whatever they expect to see in those things.

> some miracles seem damn impossible to rationally explain away for me

Explain which of the things on that list you find inexplicable and why. Some seem to me like obvious bullshit, especially the Lourdes one.

>68 cases of inexplicable cures (out of thousands tested).

Top fucking kek.

The only one that I find both sufficiently documented and hard to explain is the incorruptible bodies. All we can say about that is it's fucking weird, but I suspect it doesn't only happen to church people, they're just the only ones who are routinely dug up to check for it. Just because we don't understand what causes it isn't grounds to assume it's supernatural.

I didn't count but I think the fucking "proof" was posted at least 3 times right in the first post of threads on this board, and most people except the faggot OP agreed there isn't sufficient evidence to prove that it's real.

And yet here we go again for the fourth time, with the same sun bullshit and crying statues.

how about the miraculous healings of Joseph Smith?

>>7395 (OP)

A lot of the incorruptible bodies do eventually rot without embalming, and they put wax masks on the ones on display.

>>1508

we've already discussed the fatima apparations and akita statue to death here.

>>7288

we made fun of the miracle of a priest vomitting blood and flesh here.

It would be so euphoric to break the news that they just have an ugly mutant baby.

You notice India is the place with some of the weirdest births? Pollution and a high population….but these people must think Ganesha has been reincarnated.

I know a guy who claims to live of pranic energy. He seems suspiciously well fed, though. Perhaps he doesn't consider midnight stuffing eating.

That's why this place is a failure. /christian/ would've banned OP's ass yet we have, likely, the samefag here posting the same shit over and over posing as innocent yet trying to convert us to his religion of crying statues.

You fucking faggots just can't keep the euphoria to your own boards, can you?

Why should we ban the clown? They are to be ridiculed, that is how we roll. No need to take the hugbox route.

Nice try christfag, but it isn't our fault that your board is a hugbox. Now back to your echochamber where you belong
