300 Proofs Against God

One of the perks of being part of an active local atheist group isn't local at all, the online presence.  We're an active, in person group, but we also have a fairly active Facebook group that also has people in it from outside Omaha and even outside America.  For instance, the source for this post was shared by someone in Morocco.

Someone has compiled a list of over 300 disproofs of God's existence.  Here's a few of my favorites:

ARGUMENT FROM THE BIBLE
  1. [Arbitrary passage from OT]
  2. [Arbitrary passage from NT]
  3. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM BLINDNESS (II)
  1. God is hate.
  2. Hate isn’t blind.
  3. Ray Charles is blind.
  4. Therefore, Ray Charles isn’t God.
  5. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM KITCHEN APPLIANCES
  1. My toaster isn’t God.
  2. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM UPPERCASE ASSERTION
  1. GOD DOESN’T EXIST! GET USED TO IT!
  2. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM INFINITE REGRESS
  1. Ask theists how the universe came to be.
  2. Regardless of their answer, ask how they know this.
  3. Continue process until the theist admits he doesn't know the answer to one of your questions.
  4. You win!
  5. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM MONTY PYTHONISH ARGUMENTATION (aka ARGUMENT FROM CONTRADICTON aka ARGUMENT FROM THE AUTOMATIC GAINSAYING OF ANYTHING THE OTHER PERSON SAYS)
  1. God doesn’t exist.
  2. [Theist's counterargument]
  3. No he doesn’t.
  4. [Theist's counterargument]
  5. No he doesn’t!
  6. [Theist's counterargument]
  7. NO HE DOESN’T!!!
  8. [Theist gives up and goes home]
  9. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
ARGUMENT FROM MORAL STANDARDS
  1. There are no absolute moral standards because God doesn’t exist.
  2. Theists say that there are absolute moral standards.
  3. But that's only because they want to condemn everyone (especially atheists) but themselves as sinners.
  4. Therefore, there are no absolute moral standards.
  5. Therefore, God doesn’t exist.
THE ARGUMENT FROM CRAZINESS
  1. I would have to go crazy to believe in God.
  2. I am not crazy.
  3. Therefore, God doesn’t exist
