If evidence for god is in abundance, why is faith necessary?

I rehearse them and they are found in better form and context in Quran.  If the witness argument is false, then so is the Quran.

I hate to break it to you, but....

Maybe you should pay a little more attention to other people's arguments against your position. From my point of view, you never address cogent criticism, you just deny and deflect.

I don't believe it because from what I've seen you wouldn't know a good argument if it bit your nose off. It's not that hard: a good argument has true premises and conclusions that follow from them; and can withstand attacks on its premises and form.

MysticKnight Wrote:Your arguments against them are a constant misunderstanding of the argument or just dismissing premises with no reason to.

To address an argument against them, you would have to explain how the argument is wrong, instead of just claiming that your argument is unassailable over and over.

MysticKnight Wrote:I can go to details of each premise and provide elaborations which I have in other threads, but I find people lose interest as attention span is lacking.

Or maybe because you prove your own arguments too weak to bother with as soon as you type 'a leap of faith is required'.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
