Thor Wrote:So what?

It suggests that when we consider God and when we consider goblins we find ourselves in a very different epistemic situation. There are things, such as I mentioned, that suggest that God cannot be written off simply apriori as if it was self-evidently a children's fable. Darwin didn't believe in children's fables and neither did Einstein.

In fact, I can reason as follows,

1. Darwin and Einstein would not seriously believe a children's fable is true
2. Darwin and Einstein seriously believed God existed
3. Therefore God is not a children's fable

Thor Wrote:Yes, one is an obviously fictional creation of man and the other can be found in Halloween decorations.

Please show that this is the case.
