To Test this.

If I claim that a Nonpareil exists that flooded the world in forty days, and we establish that the world was never flooded for forty days.  I have just proven that you do not exist.

Do you agree with the conclusion, that you do not exist?

No. But, again, that is not what I am arguing.

The actual conclusion that your argument allows you to draw - and the thing that I have been saying for this entire time - is that a Nonpareil that flooded the world for forty days does not exist.

This is not complicated.

RR-what Nonpareil is doing is joining the deity AND flooding into one entity: defining it as a "Flood-causing God". And if there was no flooding, there is no "Flood-causing God".

EDIT. Sorry, i took to long to post the reply and the conversation moved on.
