Probability of God's existence → zero

RE: Probability of God's existence → zero
Quote:We can now say that there is a very infinitesimal chance that God exists. An absolutely infinitesimal chance can be ignored and rounded to zero as not being statistically significant.

LOL @ rounded off.

You conclude that God almost certainly exists. I also think this. You then 'round it off', well you can do what you like with your 'rounding off' but you can't just 'magic it into zero' lol. He almost certainly doesn't exist, that is clearly very different to absolutely certainly, definitely non-existent. The probability of God cannot be proven to be zero insofar as I can tell, so to say the probability is zero is intellectually dishonest and claiming more than you can know Big Grin

It is impossible to absolutely disprove God insofar as I can tell, for he is absolutely undetectable and his possible existence is indistinguishable from his possible non-existence.

He's just a lot more fucking likely to not exist than to exist Big Grin
