(October 4, 2013 at 7:44 pm)pocaracas Wrote: What does "believe in naturalism" and "believe it to be true" mean?

to know that, you need only know the definition of belief, which is defined as accepting a proposition as true. this in mind, to say you can't believe in naturalism and believe it to be true is really a negation of statements that simplifies to you can't truly believe naturalism.
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them.
