Don't just assert it, show us how and why you know that your presupposition gets you anywhere.

Unless you can demonstrate valid logical reasoning for holding a positive belief in the existence of God your personal need for authority is worthless.

I asked you to point them out, since you claim everyone has them by default.
I don't call Anything completely impossible, therefore I exclude nothing by default. My positions are based a weighing of evidence where it is available and withholding judgement where none is available.
Quote:Well if you personally don’t start with first principles that at least you think are absolute and objectively true, then I don’t know why you have such a high regard for whatever worldview you hold such that you find mine so laughable.
My position is based on the weighing of evidence between proposition to attain a level of certainty (or un). On the issue of the existence for God i see no evidence what so ever for his being existent and thus i consider him extremely unlikely, based on our current body of relevant knowledge.
You have an almost idiotic certainty of the truth of your presuppositions, especially considering the standard by which you came to this conclusion involved nothing more than totally subjective personal revelation of which there are many people who, by the same standard, have come to literally hundreds of positions that are entirely contradictory to your own. You can go two ways from here, you can either recognise that the current standard being used to substantiate your claims is logically insufficient and move on to a higher standard of evidence in an attempt to prove the viability of your claims over the other contradictory ones, or you can admit that you don't much care that you cannot rationally verify your position.
Quote:Straw-man as I said nothing about science being inaccurate and because of such inaccuracies I begin with different presuppositions.
You don't think it's accurate yet you reject the scientific method the minuet it produces answers that contradict your world view.
Some Christians cherry pick the bible, you cherry pick science.
