Quote:Scientifically, and legally, we hold a standard of proof that demands demonstrable evidence.
Good what demonstrable evidence will you submit that the universe and life came into existence by mindless physical forces that didn't intend to cause human life to exist?
Quote:Demanding absolute and irrefutable proof is not even necessary because no theist has ever even gotten around to providing basic, examinable evidence of any kind. Even holding theistic claims to the lowest reasonable standards shows nothing of value from them.
Not true. In the thread 'The case for Theism' I laid out 5 lines of evidence in favor of theistic belief.

Of course at the end of the day no matter what evidence or case is made the atheist will always say you've made no case and provided no evidence just on the basis it didn't persaude them.
