Atheism Undermines Knowledge

[Esquilax]

That says nothing about the quality of their claims. Some are more compelling than others. You are not being discerning if you paint them all with the same brush.

What Ryan said. Beyond that, all of those claims do have one thing in common: a lack of evidence. This is why I feel safe in using the same brush.

Hellllooo? That's what this thread is about, i.e. questioning the presuppositions of science the lead to causal closure and physical reduction.

I know, it's only things that disagree with your view that count as presuppositions...

Heelllooo again? I have called into question the unwarrented restriction of evidence to material and efficient cause. You can trot out your bromides about evidence elsewhere, but on this thread it's just begging the question.

The moment you can explain to me how one can know anything without some form of evidence- know, not rationalize yourself into believing- I'll take your dismissive attitude toward real, evidenced work seriously. Until then, I'll continue operating under the idea that things that exist exist, and in doing so are demonstrable.

Yawn. You need some new material. Only a cock-leper like you would demand physical evidence for a non-physical being.

Yes, because wanting proof of something is madness. Chad, why are we to take you seriously at all? What is there, if there's no evidence, to show that any of these god claims exist outside of your fever dreams? You're just doing what all theists do in the end, and appeal to some special way of knowing that we atheists just don't get.

You know what we call that? Delusion.
