This argument always used to be used about the wind, until it was thoroughly debunked.
Now, it's dark matter.
When dark matter is proven to exist then it will be something else we can't hear, see, or taste.

You use the same argument against God, it's good to see you being critical of your own statements.
It's not the same argument. You're just too dense to tell the difference.

You can't know that, it's physically unobserved.
The effects are observed. Like the effects of wind. Broadly speaking, effects are ALL we ever observe of anything.

Case in point.
Radio waves can't be seen, touched, smelled, heard or tasted.
They must not exist either! It's those goddamn scientists at it again! Trying to make fools of uneducated backwoods children of God!
I've heard them.
No, you've heard sound from a device that can detect them. You can't hear radio waves. Is someone here paying you to make it seem like Christians are this clueless?

You don't have to physically observe something for its effects to be tested and measured, and not all observations have to be made visually; in fact hardly any scientific observation is visual.
But that's what you require of God, seems you are setting a double standard.

That God's supposed 'effects' be testable and measurable is exactly the same standard.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
