As opposed to the belief that the supernatural is probable.
Yeah that's just an opinion. The supernatural isn't probable/improbable. It either exists or it doesn't. We won't know until we leave this world.

So, you're a hard agnostic, then? You think that all gods are exactly 50% probable/their probability is indeterminate?

You have absolutely no reason to think that any of them are unlikely ... ?

Everything has to be probable or improbable unless it's exactly 50% or indeterminate. And indeterminate is effectively 50% because it means you have no reason to think it's likely or unlikely.

X or not X. Probable or not. You aren't a baby born without a God concept. Fair enough if you're ignostic about particular gods like me. But there are plenty of gods that are at the very least improbable. Some even impossible.

It's a choice. But if that's what you want, then it should be allowed to happen.

All choices are illusory at best.
