If life is the entrance exam for heaven in your religion ..

Of course I don't! No one knows! Haven't you being paying attention?

Let me throw your definition of a test back at you. How are to we get tested if we knew exactly how God operates? There's no point in being tested then, is there?

i.e. if students knew exactly what questions the teacher would ask, would it be fair for them to get an A? No. It's the same with faith and religion. Because we don't know or can't explain how God tests people, we need to take it up to faith, and our end results (actions derived by teachings of religion) is exactly how we get rewarded with either Heaven/Hell. Oh and Allah does know best. Always.

Sigh. It's like you people are coming up with literally anything just for the sake of arguing. This is the 21st century. I don't think there's any person in this world who doesn't know or heard of Islam.

Furthermore, before you attack me with another pointless question, those people who have never heard of Islam obviously are not going to be judged.

Also, you're associating tests with something literal like actual tests in schools and universities. Tests can be in the form of abstract things you know. I mean, haven't you watched movies where the hero at the end gets rewarded for something because he 'passed the test' even though he didn't even know he was being tested?

The entire concept of believing in a God is a test in itself, and whether you choose to believe it or not, that is the crux of the test itself: the belief. Believing in something you can't see or explain is the ultimate test. You just feel it. You feel that there is a greater force out there, and that force, for religious people, is God. Does that make sense?

Hearing of a religion is not the same as really knowing anything about it. Why is Islam any different to other faiths? Most Christians will have never researched any other faith, most Muslims will have never researched any other faith, most Jews will never have researched any other faith etc etc. So why do you think Islam, out of all the religions that exist, is going to make people read about it and obtain more in depth knowledge?



No one is ever going to be judged by a celestial dictator because there is no such thing as hell or Judgement Day. Both concepts are just as absurd and as illogical as life being an examination.



The test here you'v described is absolutely no different. If the person testing the hero was all-knowing and knew the hero's actions in advance then the test would be nullified. Tests only work when the examiner is not omniscient.



I have already and thoroughly picked apart your claim that an all-knowing deity can test people. Second, belief cannot be faked, your point there that you "just feel it" suggests it's automatic and therefore not really something you decided to do or achieved. Furthermore, your own Quran says that Allah deliberately stops people from being able to believe in Islam..

There's so many things wrong with the atheist belief system.

There's so many things wrong with the atheist belief system.

There's just so many thing wrong with the religious belief system that we could be here for days picking off an almost infinite number of arguments for why none of it makes logical sense.

How does 0+0=1?

What on earth are you talking about?

If this is in relationship to the formation of the universe then you better be able to explain how God came into creation since I also have the question of 0+0=1?

you believe there's no God hence how do YOU think the universe began,

No let's not swing this on me by talking about God, I'm talking about you believe, you believe there's no God hence how do YOU think the universe began, YOU must think 0+0=1, right?

When you say how the universe began I'll assume you mean before the big bang since we have a very strong scientific understanding of how it expanded after the big bang.

Firstly just because I don't have the answer to what was there before the big bang gives no credence to a God.

Trying to equate believing 0+0=1 as the same as not having an explanation for the universe is a poor strawman argument which is constantly used by religious people when debating.

The burden of proof is actually on you to prove the existence of God rather than on me to prove he doesn't since there is no evidence he does exist.

So I'll ask you again what proof do you have for God existing? Who created him? And if he's always existed then why can't the energy required to create the universe have existed in a state before the big bang?

You haven't answered my question. How can the universe come into existence out of nothing (0=1)? I want your explanation.

No let's not swing this on me by talking about God, I'm talking about what you believe, you believe there's no God hence how do YOU think the universe began, YOU must think 0+0=1, right?

You haven't answered my question. How can the universe come into existence out of nothing (0=1)? I want your explanation.

I used to be an atheist but then I was shaken to the core by an argument that actually really did convince me.

Basically we are creating ever more complex artificial realities/ simulations in a universe of 2 trillion galaxies with the abundance of suns and planets intelligent there probably are many cases of intelligent life heck if we make it into the next few hundred years chances are we will create artificial realities indistinguishable from this one with intelligent conscious au that believe they are in the real reality.

Which raises the question how do we know we are not in the computer simulation?

He answer is we don't and if you think it through for a bit you will realise we very probably aren't in an artificial reality.

Which would mean this reality had programmers/ a programmer e.g. A creator.

Of course this is a far cry away from the Judaic abrahamic God etc their is no reason to believe the programmers are even aware of our existence let alone observing us individually and making an after life etc.

So I don't get to the perfectijbate god but we very like do have a creator of our reality.

You haven't answered my question. How can the universe come into existence out of nothing (0=1)? I want your explanation.

Of course I did. The second opinion which is not popular and if you read it carefully, was refuted (obviously scholars are going to think differently). Interpreting the Quran is not an easy task, and you need both Quran + Hadiths to do that as they go hand in hand

Please show me where atheism states the universe came from nothing?

Out of interest, what did your god create the universe from?

It's something that's been hypothesised however until there's any observable evidence for it we can't assume it to be true.

The fact that we may be able to crest such simulations also doesn't inherently mean that we ourselves are in a simulation or have been created by a supreme being.
