The Hayter-Braeloch Scale

[Paul the Human]

So what you both meant was '4'.



I love how people try to create new places on the scale despite the fact it doesn't measure this. Paul invented a new metric of "certainty", whilst Caecilian decided the more arguments you had, the closer to 5 you were

Just to clarify, this scale has 5 points on it. You are one of the 5. It only measures belief and your view on whether the existence of gods can be conclusively established. It doesn't measure the number of arguments, or how certain you are.

If pressed in that way, I'd have to say I'm a 5 then. I am convinced that there is no god and I have no doubts about that conviction. I do know that the existence of god(s) cannot be proven one way or the other, but that is why I think 'agnostic' is an extraneous word when applied to 'theist' and/or 'atheist'. Everyone is lacking objective knowledge on the subject and probably always will be.
