Issue: God is meaningless.
a. Point: God is just a figment of our imagination.
Reason: As human beings, we are constantly in search of god that we are born with the illusion
that he exists.
Example: As human beings, we cling to religion, which clouds our judgement even more
Point: God is just a figment of our imagination to fill the metaphorical void we have
b. Point: God is beyond human comprehension
Reason: Simply because we dont know his reasons for creating us.
Example: It is not known why he has created us, we dont know if hes having a hormonal
imbalance or whatnot and made us out of thin air because he just felt like doing so.
Point: No matter how much we rationalize about his intentions in creating us, we still dont have
a definite answer.
c. Point: God is irrelevant in our everyday lives.
Reason: Simply because we get through days, months, even years without having to
experience his presence.
Example: After a hard day out, things still happen, even without his intervention
Point: Life goes on even without his presence
Conclusion: God is just a concept, a product of the human imagination.
