What are some good comebacks for atheistic argument?

Contributions from Contributors:

A painting assumes a painter. Creation assumes a Creator.

Something cannot come from nothing. And as there is such a thing as entropy, what is in existence could not have existed for all eternity. It could not have just come from another natural cause, for then we'd be asking about that.

It had to come from a supernatural cause - an entity that could cause, but not itself be caused.



Another Perspective


There are no good comebacks for any atheist argument because "good comebacks" need to rely on faith and speculation that something supernatural simply "must have" created everything. That is an assumption, not a good comeback. Your question is unanswerable. Going from a painter who can be easily viewed painting to a supernatural creator who is assumed by some to have created everything in the universe is a very wide, unsupportable stretch. We have all seen painters so we don't "assume" them at all. We know there are painters. We have proof we can see and touch. We do not know where we came so why assume anything? That's faith and speculation. But . . . we sure have answered a lot of questions that baffled the ancients. We have identified millions of natural causes. We're closing in.
