Disproving Odin - An Experiment in arguing with a theist with Theist logic
RE: Disproving Odin - An Experiment in arguing with a theist with Theist logic
So Steve reasoning is a steaming pile of bullshit opinions . Then demanding h's rational because we can't debunk them . Theist logic in a nutshell  Tongue

Even if you had a theory for each of them, those theories are your opinion. You cannot prove one counter-argument to any of the above--not one

The evidence that I believe that supports my belief (another opinion) is below:

1. Person of Jesus is compelling.
2. The NT describes actual events including the miracles, life, death and resurrection of Jesus.
3. God works in people's lives today--changing people on the inside as well as the occurrence of miracles.
4. The natural theology arguments:
a. God is the best explanation why anything at all exists.
b. God is the best explanation of the origin of the universe.
c. God is the best explanation of the fine-tuning of the universe for intelligent life.
d. God is the best explanation of intentional states of consciousness.
e. God is the best explanation of objective moral values and duties.

Since you cannot 'prove' that any of these are falsely held beliefs, my conclusion (opinion) that God exists is by definition rationale (from my reasoning listed above). The amount of evidence meets my personal threshold for proof that God exists.

Steve-o, that lame little list is a list of opinions and assertions, not arguments, reasons to believe or any kind of evidence.
Funny steve demonstates the opposite of his conclusion  Tongue
