[P2] There is no evidence for God
[C] Therefore God is unlikely to exist
Of course, the theist will take issue with premise two. He'll say that everything that exists is evidence for a god but that could only be the case if one assumes that a god created it in the first place. D'oh!
Perhaps [P2] should be: There is no evidence for God which will stand up to rational scrutiny.
