Tiberius Wrote:In other words, people used to believe that their God created the world in 6 days, made a flood that killed people, can listen to prayers, etc. The actions of creation in 6 days and the flood are false, so the god described above it false, leaving us with a god who can listen to prayers (the test for this is as impossible as any other test for god).The test has been done under controlled conditions. It shows there is no positive correlation.
God is like an onion. Layer by layer the attributes are peeled off by science. But also every time new layers are added by theists and theologians. This can go on forever, theist re-interpret time and time again and disagree considerably amongst each other. It is indicative for believe in faith but not for the existence of god.
