I’m referring to whether or not the jurors have to think the defendant is innocent if they don’t think he’s guilty. You and I seem to agree on this point, so then it shouldn’t be a stretch for you to imagine this analogous to my position regarding god-claims. Someone says “a god exists,” and my position is, “I have no good reason or evidence to accept that claim as true, so I don’t accept it as true.” That doesn’t mean I’m certain it’s false.
Absolutely, with no doubt whatever...it does not mean that you think it is false.

In no way whatsoever does doubting a claim that there is a god...means that the person is saying that there are no gods...or that the claim is false.

So what?

So, why are you here telling a bunch of people who have just explained the above to you as their position on the existence of god/s, that their position is not, in fact, their actual position?
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
