(August 30, 2019 at 7:54 pm)mcc1789 Wrote: William Rowe, the late atheist philosopher, coined the term "friendly atheism". By this he meant an atheist view which holds theism can be rational in some cases. Do you agree or disagree that theism is ever rational? Please state your reasons.

Depends on what is being meant by theism.

Some forms of theism are trivially true (e.g., universe = God and such), the more mainstream ones tend to be irrational on the other hand (one example: Christian Trinity).
