Quote:Are there not other concepts of god that you have not considered? How can you be so sure? How can you be sure about what you have never considered? How can you be sure you've considered all possibilities?"What if you don't know something?". That's never not true, but until you make some specific proposition it's a vacuous objection.
Quote:Can you show atheism is true?Sure can.
Quote:"If you can't show it, it's not objective" So then, if I can't show something is true, then I can't be objective?That's what it means for something to be objective. If you tell me that you know that there's an imp hovering over your bedside table because you can see it...and you point to thin air...you believe that theres an imp. This belief is neither objective, nor knowledge, and while it certainly may be true that you -see- an imp hovering over your bedside table, that's no indication that there actually is an imp hovering over your bedside table. That your claim is true.
Quote: Only when I know for sure, then I can be objective? Seems opposite to me.You're perfectly capable of being certain about something in the absence of any objective indication of it's truth, but what your personal certainty has to do with things that can be objectively shown to be true is a mystery.
Quote:That would be a failure on the part of the reader to properly ascertain what the author was trying to convey. You cannot project your connotations onto an author and claim you're properly interpreting what is said.It's not actually my responsibility to correct your equivocations. I do it out of the kindness of my big mean heart, so that you stop making a fool of yourself. Take it or leave it.
