When I ask for a counterexample, I am rebuffed.
The inference to the best explanation is that there is no other foundation that atheists can appeal to.
This is the same kind of argument as:
All the swans I have ever seen have been white.
Nobody has claimed to have seen a non-white swan.
The inference to the best explanation is that all swans are white.
As this is an inference to the best explanation based on the evidence I have before me, it is necessarily tentative and it can be overturned by a counterexample.
So because you've never seen it, it doesn't exist? Shoot, you even brought up the swan argument that defeats your own faulty logic. I didn't even have to point that out to you, and yet you still seem lost about it in thinking it actually supports your argument.
Yeah, I'm done here.
