The binary code proves that atheists are wrong. If you start with zero (0), you can't go anywhere. You have to start with one (1).

Actually, in binary, 1 + 1 == 10.
Also, this is the biggest Non-Sequitur For Jesus I've ever heard.
Or you could just start with the matter and not bother bullshitting around with a Creator.
I mean, if you're going to postulate an eternal being who is spiritual [no proof this is possible] all-powerful [sounds impossible] and all-knowing [Breaks another few laws of physics] then just postulate the Big Bang happened somehow.
It's simpler to say matter was there and we're not sure how then to say something impossible was there and created matter and we have even less of a fucking clue.
But see, God had to come from somewhere too. So before him was also 0. Eh. It's like saying "flour + oil + chocolate powder + etc. = fudge cake, thus God must be a Sesame Street character." Your argument makes even less sense than Anselm's ontological proof. Even if God "always existed," existence had to occur prior to him. So meh.
I bet this guy believes in the bible code. We should take it and predict God decided never to come back.
And in response to wisdom: Oh, I'm afraid of God. What with his causing wars, demanding his followers destroy cities and nations, and all that. Anyone in their right mind would be afraid of such a malevolent being. Well, they might if he existed. Meh.
Oh, and I can start with zero. Watch: 0, 1, 2, 3...
Or do you want it in binary? 0, 1, 10, 11...
Allow me to practise my rhetoric:
AcePilot101, I interpret, states that the rich structure of the natural numbers requires the concept of asserting for each number a unique successor, which is that number plus one, so that the natural numbers 'need' one to be meaningful; and so analogously (as one to God, as zero to the void/universe) the universe requires a creator to exist and 'build' the universe.
Assuming this analogy is sufficiently accurate, one should act prostrate to the number one (1), as it is the numerical epitome of God, and so shun the number zero (0), as it corresponds to the universe proper in its state of sin. And so the fear of God is indeed the beginning of wisdom: for as zero and one can construct the natural numbers which allow the creation of a large number of physical models in which our knowledge is encoded (sometimes on a binary manner, as on computers) so too can the worship of God allow the knowledge of the universe to be revealed.
[Yes, I'm mocking his argument.]

And Giveitaday's says:
Actually, in foundational mathematics, the natural numbers are derived using nothing but the empty set and basic set operations. Zero is the empty set. One is the empty set unioned with the set containing the empty set, and so on. So I guess that proves god doesn't exist.
@ Taz: math FTW
In addition to the traditional set-theoretical construction, we, of course, are welcome to choose any representation we wish, so long as it follows Peano's axioms. So god can be anything we want according to the analogy.
Surely AcePilot101 understands none of that.
Huh?
No, nothing else. That's the entirety of my reaction to this post. A blank confused look on my face.
I know he's trying to say something, but I really don't have the time to attempt to decipher it, given that I have a fair bit of real mathematics to work on...
In that same thread - which is the comments to a fundie parody - many miss the joke including this rabid atheist. Enough to give us a bad name.
Anyway Catscan93 comes out with this
-the bible is shit, it was written by a fool who wanted to cause conspiracy. he made it up
-WTF....THE BIBLE IS SHIT...YOU BELIEVE IN SHIT...IT IS NOT TRUE...JUST BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE DONT MAKE IT TRUE
-So god just pinged the universe out of thin air? it was just there? bullshit. and where did god come from?
-WTF...TWO THIRDS OF THE BIASED SHITTY WEBSITES YOUVE VISITED SAY GOD EXIST? FUCK YOU. 70& OF THE WORLD IS ATHIEST
-bannanas werent designed for your hands, they are flowers
Perhaps he should have noted that (in Base 10)
0 = 1 + -1
I mean, to assume that 0 does not possess the potential for something more is simply ignorant.
You do know that 0 to the 0th power is 1, right?
And that 0! (0 factorial) Equals 1
This is true in any base.
So you can start from 0 and get something.
1+1= a window.
Get over yourself.
Others have said it, but it needs to be said again:
There are no 2s in binary, and in binary 1+1==10.
Fucktard.
There are 10 types of people in this world.
Those who don't know binary.
"AcePilot101" obviously falls into category 0 ;-)
Wait, in binary, 1+1=10. So, I guess, by your logic, the Bible is wrong.
It's basically an on and off switch, idiot. 1 means on 0 means off, that is called a bit and several bits make a byte... oh really, why do I bother?

No. Just no.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
