Why the religious will never admit you won the argument (and why they don't care)
#10
RE: Why the religious will never admit you won the argument (and why they don't care)
Well, if they demand that the universe must have a creator by stupid first cause arguments, then they fall foul of infinite regress. But if they simply believe, for some reason, that there is a parent reality from which we were manifested, they can simply stop there. We're part of a computer program from the "real" reality.

I'm not saying it's rationally defensible, because it isn't.

PS: but it's still more rational than any popular form of theism.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
