RE: Christian Paradox

It's largely a forum thing tavares. Definitions we've thrashed out over time, not necessarily widely accepted outside of here. Christians don't 'know' god exists... they believe he does by faith. Well a small minority might do... just as there are potentially atheists who 'know' God _doesn't_ exist.

You don't 'know' the chair will not fail, yet you believe without 'knowledge'. you're happy to reason the possibility and take a safe bet.

The positive claim of belief in God cannot be an absolute from knowledge. That _would_ be illogical.
