Knowledge and belief confuse so many people.
There is no absolute knowledge, it is on a gradient with current evidence, and that's fine.
Belief without any evidence is faith. Anybody could accept any position on that basis. Therefore it's useless.
The only certain knowledge is the kind that peeps like GC claim, but it is un-evidenced and worthless.
If the burden of proof is refuted by A/S/K, one can justifiably conclude the theist is just talking to himself.
The odd thing to notice is that most theists god's also echo positions that they hold true for themselves. It's easy to say I agree with god when god also god agrees with my view too.
internal dialogue, happily externalised.
