A good case against God

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.

It is just nuts to believe in something that has no evidence for it.

The idea of god has nothing going for it either.

By being dogmatic and immovable,religions and theistic thinking tend to stagnate the countries that they infect. Look at the more religious countries of he middle east and some of the more jerk wad regions of america to see what I mean.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
