Ceteloguing the Tricks Theists Play

[Jenny A]

My argument was about whether or not GPS exists... It was about how to 'proove' whether or not what the GPS said was accurate. The only way to 'proove' whether or not your getting accurate turn by turn instruction is to follow the instructions turn by turn.

Like wise God's system of proof that is offered is like a set of turn by turn instructions, in that the only way to get to God is to follow the turn by turn instructions.

Precisely.  And both whether the GPS exists and whether it works are easily tested.  It does, and it mostly does.   The item exists, it offers clear instructions and they work for everyone almost all of the time.

God offers an incoherent book.  The directions that begin with turn off your rational mind and really really want.  And even so the directions don't work for everyone except those who really really want them to and are willing to ignore much failure.

GPS hypothesis pass,  god hypothesis fail.
