I looked through that proof, it had a bunch of premises tailored to support the conclusion he wanted, and still it was full of non sequitur conclusions. Even if you accept all the premises, the 'proof' doesn't get you to Allah, just deism. If you don't accept all the premises, it doesn't even get off the ground.

But he forgets my proof that disproved god.
The universe contains everything that exists.
God lives outside the universe.
Therefore god does not exist.
No one can refute my proof that I can assert without any evidence at all cos that's how it works now......Apparently.

That's the exact reason why I never use 'logical' arguments so to speak, they can never get you to your religion, the best they can do is try to show the existence of the personal abrahamic God, but even then you're left with 3 choices, not 1. So it's kind of dubious and extremely long to use logical deduction. If it must be used the person has to go for the jugular and try to deduce why their particular holy book is the word of God.

Like what?
Quote: Even if you accept all the premises, the 'proof' doesn't get you to Allah, just deism.
Yes, I agree on that
Although it gives much more probability to Allah
Proving Allah is another subject
Quote: If you don't accept all the premises, it doesn't even get off the ground.
but then you need to refute the premises, which is far difficult then refuting the proof itself.

This thread still? Stupid fealty to ancient religious ignorant doctrine.
Refuting evolution is tantamount to saying you exist without your biological parents fucking.

Ignores the finite past/infinite future scenario, but this one is basically okay.

Physics indicates the universe was never absolutely nothing or something static. The most likely natural causes for the universe are that the Big Bang inflated from a previous hot dense state that went back who knows how long; or that it expanded from a fluctuation in the quantum foam. An interesting thing about quantum foam is how closely it resembles certain descriptions of what a creator god would have to be, such as existing necessarily. It looks like quantum foam can't not exist.
(June 19, 2013 at 5:39 am)Muslim Scholar Wrote: 3- G must have some attributes, those attributes are not by choice but by logic, so they define G.
The main problem with your conclusions is that natural explanations can fit them as well as supernatural ones. So far, quantum foam fits the bill for G, and has the advantage that it's existence can potentially be tested.
Brane theory might qualify as well, but I'm not as up on it as I am on QF.

What is your objections on that? can you prove its non-existence????
Yes.
Your go.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
