Ya… They’ll say shit like “but you can see god in the beauty of the world. Look the sunset or a rose.”

My usual responce to this is “why are there parasites that burrow into the eyeballs of humans eat the eyeballs then leave without killing them what purpose does this organism serve?”

If your god is a Crocodile, you might skip this one.

When I was a little I was hit with a similar answer. I was discussing with someone and I said that I don’t understand people who worship stones or objects (I was maybe thinking of Buddhist) and he told me “Is it better to worship the void?”

That comment really marked me and still years later remember that conversation.

I don’t believe in gods, but I do believe in aliens. One just feels a lot more likely to exist than the other.

“Do you believe in God?”

“Yes.”

“What about Zeus, Shiva, Odin, Chernobog, Ra, and all the other innumerable gods?”

“No, those are fake.”

“So you’re almost as atheist as I am, I just so happen to believe in one less god than you do.”

The real answer will be that the Bible doesn’t mention aliens, or that people’s reported encounters with aliens are actually demons

Strawman!! ;)
