    The truth is that there is no god.

    I don't feel a need to blame God for anything at all. Same goes for Sasquatches, the Easter Bunny, the Loch Ness Monster, the Tooth Fairy, and Santa Claus.
    I completely agree with your point apart from the Tooth Fairy who's a real menace!

    1. Replace "God" in your statement with any imaginary being of your choice.

    2. Read the revised statement and give it your considered opinion.

    It doesn't matter about vain arguments that God doesn't exist. They are worthless.

    This is incoherent. Why doesn't it matter and for what does it not matter? Can you give a reason for your claim that these arguments are worthless?

    Personally, I want more than my hateful human life existence. Why doesn't everyone want more?
    If God does not exist then believing in him gains nothing either, there is an argument that it loses, depending on the religion. If God exists and is evil then believing may not help. If God is good then not believing may not be the complete loss you seem to think it is.

    Is your human existence hateful? I quite enjoy mine, even if it's not perfect.

    And I don't think any of those match your OP. So can you meet my challenge, or will you admit that your OP is a strawman?

    Yes - she's dangerous. She incites poor, innocent children to yank out their own teeth for money.

    No accountability for my actions

    What did you mean? Do you mean that you are not responsible for your actions?
    No, unbelievers don't want God to exist because they would then be held accountable. Read the verses carefully...
    edit....I am held accountable for my actions to the Lord Jesus...

    If Jesus or God is not the Creator, then who do you say is the Creator and what is your proof?

    Yes there must be an intelligent being because computer programs do not create themselve and neither do the much more complicated programs in the DNA molecule.

    There is no butler at my house because I am not a member of the pasta monster cult. Now who is the Creator?

    No, I am the operator of the whole kit and caboodle, but I did NOT create, design, make, or program any of my parts. I just operate them like you are doing with your computer right now.

    Really you think you are programmed, would you pass the Turing Test?
