Questions arising from the argument.
- Are pixies all powerful like God?
- Are pixies all knowing like God?
- Are pixies All Good like God?
- Are pixies all perfect like God?
- Are there any miracles related to pixies and if so are they demonic?
- Do anyone worship pixies?
- Is there an so called holy revelation of the pixies and does those revelations correspond to absolute truth and morals?
- Are those revelations historically accurate?
- Does worshipping pixies make you Good or Bad morally?
- Are there any fulfilled prophecies concerning pixies, like in the Bible?
- Are pixies powerful enough like God to create the universe?
This argument is an example of an incomplete understanding of Christian theology, missing as it does a major philosophical and historical aspect of Christian thought: the idea that there are positive reasons suggesting the existence of God.
They don't have to be all powerful, all good, or all knowing.
In fact, they are more happy not being those things. They don't like the logically contradictory state they create.
They only have to be powerful enough to create the universe. And since we see that the universe does exist, that proves they were responsible.
They do have one really big advantage over the Christian god however. They actually exist. My proof was successful in proving they exist.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
