What is a proof?
#56
RE: What is a proof?
(March 11, 2013 at 3:54 am)apophenia Wrote: As to epistemology, the problem is less that different belief communities have differing epistemologies as it is that certain belief communities want to use some core of epistemological assumptions inconsistently depending on whether the subject of concern is their beliefs, other people's beliefs, and non-belief matters. For example, if I were to say that I experience the existence of my god directly, but that god is not the Christian god, or related in any way to Yahweh, I predict that you, jstrodel, would discount that as evidence for the existence of my god (call this god Brahma). Yet, in the same breath, you see nothing wrong with claiming this is sufficient evidence of the existence of your god. You have a double standard, and engage in special pleading, though you wouldn't argue that such special pleading is valid in other contexts. It isn't the epistemological differences which are the problem; it's inconsistent application of the shared core.
I agree with your words
But let me emphasis about something

Scientific proofs are not as strong as logical proofs
That's why a proof of God should be logical not scientific

A logical proof "If Valid" cannot be refuted based on new data
On the other hand scientific ones can be refuted or restricted based on new data
