It seems to me that the only reason why one would even talk about evidence for the existence of God would be due to expectations of non-spontaneous belief.
Keep in mind this is not supposed to be used in an actual conversation, this is just a "gotcha". Some atheists sometimes go "aha but there is no evidence of God so everything you just said is invalid" instead of engaging in a conversation. This is just my gotcha lol.
Now if you want to debate the validity of this "gotcha", okay
Quote:The strawman, therefore, comes from those expectations, which fail to consider that people are entitled to simply disregard theistic belief.
But that's still just a explanation for why you use a strawman, it still is a faulty argument though....

Sure, a strawman is when a person attack a position someone else doesn't hold and then pretend like they "defeated" that view.
