Only if Penn Jillette can prove that God does not exist - otherwise Atheism (a belief system) is a religion. :D


You can claim that all you like, but it won't ever become true. Atheism is a religion like being bald is a hair colour. The only thing that unites atheists is not believing in any gods. :wink:


Not to mention, where is her proof that God exists? She doesn’t get that it’s a two way street.

Clearly the burden of evidence falls on the one claiming one or more gods exist, not on the one going 'erm, you sure 'bout that?' :wink:

Penrose putting his theory that I mentioned earlier (space-time reset as a big bang at final heat-death of a universe) in his own words, 41:15 to somewhere around 52:00. At around 1:01:00 he starts discussing observational evidence over and above potting the problems in the theory.
