I'm using Schrodinger's cat as an example of something that is intrinsically ambiguous, and is not a matter of weight of opinion. This is what I'm saying about my view on God-- that it is in fact both possible to believe in something and its opposite, exactly equally, conditional on an unknown/unknowable state value.
So you either believe without evidence or disbelieve because it is lacking.
I'm not so sure that particular physical property applies across the board to everything in life. If I'm mistaken though, fortunately enough we have a couple of experts on the forum, let's hope they see our discussion and intervene, 'cause I've got a very strong feeling that you're talking way out of your ass here.
No, it's not possible, and that statement is ridiculous.
You either believe in a God or you don't. There is no other option here. Well, I suppose being dishonest about it is.
