You see, what you just did there? "You mean that lack of: demonstrable evidence, reasoned argument, and valid and sound logic is not enough to disbelieve the god claim?" That's called a baseless assertion. Or atheist dogma. The kind of thing atheists believe on blind faith.
You see what I said in my post? "Very few of the posts I've seen here so far contain a rational basis for rejecting religion."
That was me, predicting exactly the kind of atheist fairy tales you and your ilk like to spew.
Now go ahead, substantiate your claim with reasons and evidence. Show me you're smarter than the average bear. Steal my picnic basket, Yogi.
I made no baseless assertion.
My comment is in response to the assertion made by theists, that at least one god exists.
I do not have to assert anything to defend my position. The 1000's of years of lack of demonstrable evidence, reasoned argument and valid and sound logic is all I need.
If you have anything that passes the above criteria for the god you claim exists, open a new thread and present it.
Actually you do have to assert something to defend your position. You have to assert that all the arguments for God that have ever been provided fail to amount to either demonstrable evidence, reasoned argument, or valid and sound logic.
Isn't that what you're saying?
