God Exists

[brokenreflector]

Dude, you totally miss the point of Blorps.

No, I got it. It's a very poor strawman of God.

Your god doesn't have any observed attributes.

First, we're talking about the concept of God, not god. And if God exists, then He'd be your God too.

And I have no idea what you mean by God doesn't have any observed attributes. If God existed, then we wouldn't be able to "see" Him since He'd be non-physical. He'd certainly possess properties though.

It has not been observed to have any power. The all powerful attribute was created "by definition"

Are you trying to say that if God did exist, then we would have observed God and God performing maximally powerful feats?

That's a non-sequitur so I disagree. Secondly, if God did exist, then we wouldn't be able to see Him due to His non-physical nature. Thirdly, the latter assumes atheism since the universe itself could be seen as a giant maximally powerful feat by God.

Attributes must be observed, not merely attributed to a created definition.

So, part of the definition of Superman is he's a being who possesses invulnerability. Therefore, if Superman really existed, then he'd possess invulnerability. But do we have good reasons or evidence for Superman's existence? No, we don't.

Part of the definition of God is a being who is: immaterial, maximally powerful, maximally knowledgeable/intelligent, creator of all things outside of Himself, etc. Therefore, if God really existed, then He'd have these attributes. But do we have good reasons or evidence for God really existing? I believe we do, which is why I'm a theist. You don't which is why you're an atheist.
