That would be circular logic. We are looking for evidence of supernatural agency. You are saying we cannot ascribe even a probability until what?...we have evidence that supernatural agency exists?
Actually it's astonishingly linear. We start with the system as is, that we can investigate. Only once we have applied the Holmesian Maxim and eliminated the impossible can we even begin to entertain ideas of supernatural agency. Now its up to you as the proponent of such agency to establish and support your case. I'm giving you the floor and an open mic. What have you got for us?
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.'
