I can feel your anger

[CliveStaples]

I have no belief.

So you don't believe that disbelief is the proper response to a lack of evidence?

But you just said that "a lack of evidence" is a valid reason to "disbelieve". Why would you say something you don't believe?

There is lack of evidence for bigfoot, thor, the loch ness monster, leprechauns, unicorns etc but I guarantee you don't feel the need to believe in them do you.

No, but I'm not the one who claims only to believe things that have sufficient evidence.

Not believing in something due to lack of evidence is the only rational position to take.

*edit* and yes, it isn't a belief as Norfolk said, it's a lack of belief.

Let's just get this straight, so there isn't confusion:

You guys are saying, "For any proposition p, if p lacks evidence then you shouldn't believe p." Call this proposition E (for Evidentialism).

Now, the "lack of belief" is with regard to p--you seem very keen on pointing out that lacking belief in p doesn't mean that you have some other belief.

But that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about your belief in E.
