Arguments against Deism and for religion.
#6
RE: Arguments against Deism and for religion.
Well, unless you're attempting some kind of role-switching thought experiment, I'm wondering why a deist would want to argue a case against deism. It's sort of like a vegan setting out the case for eating meat, or a defence attorney speaking on behalf of the prosecution. Please, enlighten me.

[EDIT]: Actually, ignore me. I haven't slept for a couple of days and I obviously read your original post as something different to what you actually wrote. Sorry about that. It's a good sign that I should log out of here for a good many hours.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
