RE: Occam's Razor, atheism, theism and polytheism.

February 4, 2017 at 8:01 pm

I'm being a bit of a Devil's advocate here; I am not using Occam's Razor as an argument, rather, I am saying that some Christians are using it to argue against polytheism, but if it applies to polytheism, why does it not also apply to theism, in general, and Christian theism, in particular?
