Attn: Theists - What would it take to prove you wrong?
RE: Attn: Theists - What would it take to prove you wrong?
Quote:Contradiction is a part of Gods nature yes.

Facts are not contradictory. Is god a fact? Which part of god is a fact?

"No effect can cause itself, but requires another cause. If there were no first cause, there would be an infinite sequence of preceding causes. Clearly there cannot be an infinite sequence of causes, therefore there is a first cause, and this is God." ~ St. Thomas Aquinas

For what reason does nature need a beginning? Everything is in motion, as particles never stop moving. The mass-energy equivalence is constant, mass or energy is never created or destroyed, only changed. Mass converts to energy and energy to mass in a balance. For what cause do subatomic particles need to be created if they always exist without being destroyed or created? The universe is consistent and so stable as it is right now. A god in a universe is not. Not on your evidence anyhow.

"God is a being than which none greater can be thought. A being thought of as existing is greater than one thought of as not existing. Therefore, one cannot think of God as not existing, so God must exist." ~ St. Anselm

Even if god is a thought, god is not physical. What separates the physical from the metaphysical is an objective experience that everyone can object to. 0+1+2=3 is an objective experience. If god is real, he must have a detectable means of being found. We have charge, mass, volume, luminosity, among other physical properties. If god has no physical properties within what is measured, god is nothing more than suggestion. Theists get the benefit of the doubt because there are some physical aspects that We have not fully studied, such as antimatter, dark matter, or dark energy (there may be more). There may be a god, but maybe is not proof, only suggestion. The swimming pastrami creature is as maybe as a god without real support.
