Why is that incorrect? I claim to know because I claim to be aware of the absence of God rather than his omnipresence, because I believe that I am almost certainly correct about the surroundings I believe in being his absence rather than his omnipresence. That's why I claim it.
Quote: For example, I'm not aware of the existence of aliens, but, I will not say that "I know that there are no aliens out there" because I know that there might be aliens even though I'm not aware of them.
If you truly know that there might be aliens out there, you must truly be aware that there might be aliens out there.
