Argument from "better to seek proper vision".

Argument from "better to seek proper vision".
The following was a reply to Whateverist, and I think deserves its own thread.


LOL, thanks you provided me with a reflection on a proper argument for God.


1. It is better to sincerely try to objectively seek the vision of guidance rather than not.
2. If God doesn't exist, there is no reason to believe one can gain vision of guidance.
3. If there is no reason to believe one can gain vision of guidance, then it is not better to objectively seek the vision of guidance rather then not.

1, 3. If both these premises are true, we can conclude there is a reason to believe one can vision of guidance. Call this premise (4).

4, 2 proves God exists if both premises are true.

And you implicit were stating this, but you didn't know it. I gathered this from your sentiment.
