Dad links son's suicide to 'The God Delusion'

[Ace Otana]

You simply do not understand what evidence means do you?

I think you're right. I'm not understaning your version of 'lack of evidence.' I'm not aware of any Police Officer, F.B.I Agent, or C.I.A Agent that only investigates half of the crime scene, and then they openly tell the Public, we have come to the conclusion that "lack of evidence" clears..so and so.. from scene of the crime.

I should just give up.

I think that is a good idea. Because the Universe is one gigantic space.. I cannot see how you come to the conslusion of lack of evidence? Just because what we can explore shows no evidence of God, so that means he's not somewhere beyond every step we approach? How do you know? The entire Universe is not testable. No way, no how.

Lack of evidence doesn't dis-prove anything. It just simply states that nothing detectable has been found to support the claim. Nothing detectable, study-able/researchable. It has nothing to do with dis-proval.

Exactly, lack of evidence does not disprove anything, because the entire universe would have to be explored before someone can come to that final conclusion.

You've made a claim and have nothing to support the claim. Understand now?

I made a claim God exists, and I have claimed God is the creator of the human race. We have evidence life generated itself from non-living to living. What caused this ruler of all species to start living? Nothing? How did "Something come from nothing?"

In my view, I see this "you have no evidence to prove there is no god" as evading. You know you cannot provide evidence and so you break the rules and turn it around. The burden of proof is on your shoulders, not ours. Your claim, you prove it.

I can prove God exists. That's easy. Only if you pay attention!

Proof of supernatural events;

God told Adam & Eve when they broke the Law, "You shall surely die!" Human-kind is the only species on Earth that knows in advance that it's going to die.

You still don't get it!
Bloody hell!

Sorry but my 5 year old cousin could understand what I said.

Ok, this is my last attempt.

Your claim is nothing but a hypothesis, why? Because nothing supports it. If you had evidence, I could challenge it by finding new evidence. Now I cannot dis-prove a negative. I had simply said, that you lack evidence and evidence means detectable material. Something that can be studied!

So, by you failing on proving gods existence, and have no knowledge about the meaning of the word "evidence", this debate cannot continue.

Now, let me say it nice and clear,......you THINK there is a god and you have no evidence to say its real. Understand now?

I ask for evidence. You have brought none and so I dismiss your claim.

So stop evading and bring the evidence, because so far, I've seen none.

A hypothesis like yours that has no evidence means it lacks evidence. Nothing supports it. If there was evidence, your god belief would be a theory instead of a hypothesis.

Your claim lacks evidence. I'm not saying it dis-proves it or proves it. Just plain and simple LACK of EVIDENCE. You have nothing to support your claims. Nothing in this world, space or time that we have found supports your claims. So your claims lacks evidence.

Now, please try and understand that. Because this is becoming ridiculous really. Since you should know how evidence works.
