I agree.....
Just like I (personally) don't agree with atheists who say: "I Know 100% there is no God...I am convinced"; I think that's the equivelent to Carl Jung who said: "I KNOW there is a God."
I know that the probability of God's existence is very very very very recurring small....but actually I think the difference between that and KNOWING 100% he doesn't exist...is actually very big... what you have to KNOW is that you can't 'KNOW' anything 100% therefore even what I just said might not be true...maybe you can know some things 100% but you can't because you can't know what things can be known 100% and what can't...there is no way of knowing that.
I'm confused lol....
Anyway the equivilent to KNOWING there is NO God is Carl Jung who claimed to KNOW there IS a God....and Carl Jung also thought that some of the books he owned spontanously combusted....
I think 100% belief there is a God and 0% belief there is a God...is kind of; in a way...not really part of the spectrum they're both extremes that don't belong in the spectrum IMO....the difference between 0.1% and 0% and 99.9% and 100% is actually very very very very big I think. There is a huge difference between ANY possibility(or impossibility) - however small(or large) - and between no possibility (or impossibility).
I don't agree with 100% OR 0% belief.
If I am put in a situation of life or death "Thou shalt not kill" would be null and void in my book.Besides,God supposedly gave that command and then sent the Hebrews to do just that.
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
