Quote:then how does our knowledge of the natural world prove that God does not exists?Code:It doesn't.Nor does it prove he exists.
I make no claims,need prove nothing and have not slightest interest in trying to prove the negative. I will of course be so thrilled I will probably just shit, either way. That is because so far,in all of recorded history,nobody has managed to prove or falsify the existence of any god.
Carl Sagan was actually wrong when he said "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" It is indeed evidence, but not proof per se. However,an absence of evidence is a pretty strong implication of reality.
