Why Can't others See?

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

Question: If it turned out that your view would not stand up to scrutiny, wouldn't you want to know? It's perplexing to me only because I personally take that very stance.

Of course.That's not why I won't argue with you. I don't conflate winning an argument with being right [necessarily]. My respect is for you,not for theology,of which I've read only a little. I did a minor in philosophy at university,but am no philosopher.Nor do I have any training in apologetics which I suspect you have. Plus, as I'm being candid; I'm probably not as open minded as I'd like to think I am.


To put it simply "A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still"

My position is God cannot be reasoned into or out of existence. I demand empirical evidence and am UNABLE to accept any thing less.

My atheism is not a choice.It is the result of an often painful journey which took over 20 years.

I look at theology the same way as I look at the paradoxes of Zeno of Elea; I FEEL they're wrong,put can't put my finger on the error. (took me ages just to work out one Zeno's simpler paradoxes; viz"that dog is your father")

So,no I won't argue with you if I can help it.
