bapized catholic, raised nazarene, raised my children fundamental baptists and found myself an agnostic by fifty and in my last years, an atheist.
there are only two certain things i know.
creation precedes destruction.
order precedes chaos.
all things written on paper by man extolling a religion are just words on paper penned by man, for man and about a subjective experience.

@mister-moggy saidDo you see yourself as an implicit atheist or an explicit atheist?

@mister-moggy saidOK. You think the words "implicit" and "explicit" are "intellectual" words, presumably.
i would not know the difference. it is not an intellectual position.
it just how i strongly feel about things.

@mister-moggy saidOK.
for me, anything i have to look up in a dictionary becomes something intellectual.

@mister-moggy saidCreation not only precedes destruction, it also follows it. (Just as order emerges out of chaos).

There is no beginning or end, merely cycles.
@mister-moggy saidHow about actions are followed by causes?

@mister-moggy saidSomething still needs to precede creation of that you can also be certain.

@dj2becker saidOr chance.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidHave you ever seen a perpetual motion machine in life?
Brilliant Sentence?!
Cheers.
Suggesting the universe is an unending cycle, and not a linear path where it has
a beginning and ending you are assuming a cycle wouldn't share the same laws
of a linear path would, because what is still true all things wind down.
You seem to introducing things with no backing such as, "...no beginning or end...",
it isn't brilliant a sentence its a simple reminder! Look at the laws of the universe
that we know this universe subject too.

@dj2becker saidOrder isn't the giant gotcha, information is. You can have order and never see life
Order tends to emerge from chaos by means of intelligent intervention.
begin, but once information arrives you see intelligence.
