Yep.
They argue for something other than God... and then stick God in the conclusion lol.
God is supposed to be the conclusion after an argument leads to God. You can't just argue for anything randomly and just put God at the end lol.
Watch:
All men are moral.
I am a mortal.
Therefore I am a man.
All men have genitals.
I have genitals.
Therefore God exists.
Lol.
Here's a less silly one:
Do you agree that everything has a cause?
If so, do you agree that the universe has a cause?
Okay, so then that cause must be God.
Therefore God exists.
That's basically it lol. It's stupid as fuck.
This is what the argument should really be:
Do you agree that everything has a cause?
If so, do you agree that the universe has a cause?
Okay, then that cause must be a cause.
Therefore there is a cause to the universe.
^ That makes a lot more sense lol.
