Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?

It isn't.

Lets review shall we.

I posted a video of eye witness testimony of Marilyn Hickey claiming she saw an entity in the form of a spinning light.

I also posted the audio of the aforementioned where William Branham clearly states that a supernatural light is present.

I posted a photograph of where this light is positioned just over William Branhams head. (I posted biblical scripture where the same event was recorded, showing a precedent.)

I posted the report of scientific testing done to the negative and the expert opinion stating that there had to be a source of light there to form an image on the negative (this eliminates any anomalies, not to mention lights just don't hang out over peoples heads for no apparent reason)

The Athiest response:

Your denial of the evidence is based on nothing.

Which shows your denial of the evidence is totally irrational seeing how none of you has proven God doesn't exist. Therefore if there is a possibility that God exists, then supernatural events aren't an impossibility.


"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."



No, the atheist response is, "there are way too many possible natural explanations for all those events, to accept that the only explanation is a miracle".

How did you go about ruling out all possible natural explanations?

Quote:"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."

This is actually a fallacious quote.

It is an almost textbook example of argument from ignorance.

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.
