Absolute truth and human understanding
#20
RE: Absolute truth and human understanding
As Dawkins said not only is faith the belief in spite of the lack of evidence. Its even perhaps BECAUSE of the lack of evidence.
I think that one of the pathetic weapons the religious through at you is "My God/gods cannot be disproved!".
And of course its very difficult to disprove something that there's no evidence of the existence of in the first place!!!
If there was actual scientific evidence of the existence of God. It would be falsifiable.
Of course its hard to disprove something that there's no evidence of TO disprove in the first place!
The burden of proof is on the one making the claim. Once there actually IS evidence of God....THEN it would have to be disproved.
It seems the fact there is NO evidence of God that makes believers often think their belief is so strong! If there was evidence of God he could actually be falsified!
It seems they often completely miss the point! God doesn't need to be falsified because there's NO evidence TO be falsified!
There's no evidence of God whatsoever. So what are we being asked to disprove here?! Tongue
The burden of proof is on the one making the claim. The burden of proof...is on the believer!
If only more believers could grasp this point!!! I think its so vital! Atheists/non-believers don't have to disprove God, miracles or the supernatural! The believers have to provide evidence first! There are many that don't get that. Its stupid being told to disprove "God".
