If someone tells me they believe in god I don't have much to oppose that argument with, I don't believe you can prove God exists or doesn't exist. I can't disprove that I'm God.
What I oppose is the arguments that usually follow on relating to the belief in God. Numerology, miracles and so on.
For example I believe in God because the Quran is perfect, numerology, I saw God when I took acid once, The bible is nice and so on.
Actually, you don't know whether you have something to oppose that argument with or not, as prior to getting an unambiguous definition of God you don't know whether it's a falsiable claim or not that is about to be made.
Yes that's correct. I suppose if someone was to say they believe in a God that I should be able to see and he walks around clearly seen then I would be opposed to that, but if we're talking about God as most people definite it then it's pretty much whittled away to nothing that you can prove or disprove.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
