To answer the question "We have evidence for nature." I think this evidence is neutral. It does not render support of naturalism nor theism. It is simply as such....is. God or creator/entity is a philosophical one not a scientific one atleast with our current level of technology.
I disagree vehemently, and would ask you how you know this to be the case- in any case. I suspect that you merely -prefer- that god be philosophical, as it likely means, to you, not already falsified and not able to be falsified.

Quote:My question on objectivty mainly deals with making statments such as "Atheism has evidence" That is an objective claim considering you have used deductive logic to determine the claim. It very much the same boat as a theist stating he has objective evidence for God.
Atheism needs no evidence (at least no evidence of any existent god), it's a statement regarding belief. The only evidence an atheist would need for atheism to be true is evidence that they do not believe. I'll take them at their word on that one - but we could probably arrange a test..lol.

Quote:And to "Where did God come from." A logical and smart apologetic will eat this question easily.
No, it won't.

Quote: According to theistic beliefs, God is an enitity not with in this universe (such things can exist as the Multi-verse theory claims) with that designation. God cannot be bound by our laws of physics or time, laws of logic, or any barriers that might exist in this universe. Reason behind this is simple, what is in our universe obey those universe's laws. What is outside might not obey those laws. In conclusion God can always have existed, and since time does not affect this enitity he does not require a beginning. That is simple logic, and yes it can apply to naturalistic theories too.
Right, so, "god" is not present within our universe. That's exactly what I've been telling the religious.
