Question for atheists.

God says our body is powered by our souls. But atheists say electricity flows through our body and powers it. So then, why don't we get electrocuted when we take a shower?

  • Listen. I'm a Christian. If you're trying to get people to convert, you're not doing a very good job.

    If this is somehow not a joke, allow me to explain. Firstly: no, our bodies are not powered by electicity, signals to and from our brain are. For example: when you move your arm, your brain sends a signal to the muscles in your arm, telling them what to do. Its still the musckes that do the action, just the signal telling them how to do it. Secondly: this electricity is increadibly weak. Most lightbulbs have much much more electricity than what is in your body. It is so low that not only is it not a danger to us, we don't even notice it. And finally: you seem to have no understanding of how electricity works. If we had a potentially lethal dose of electricity in our bodies, it wouldn't kill us when we shower, it would kill us as soon as we can into contact with anything. Side note: the reason the electricity doesn't leave our bodies is the same reason you don't get shocked if you tounch a phone charger that's plugged in. The electric current is naturaly isolated in our bodies.

    • If your body is controlled by fixed chemical functions, do you actually have free will?

    • As an agnostic I can safely say I've never said or heard any other person who doesn't believe in religion say that before.... ever....
