Systematically Dismantling Atheism

[Brian37]

Now that you know that Thor does not cause lightening, do you waste your entire life considering that a possibility? How much time do you waste considering the existence of Apollo just because you have not lived the entire future yet?

I don't waste any time just by considering the possibility (no matter how remote).

Actually, if I know that Thor doesn't cause lightning, then this means I know it can't be true (so not possible).

I am getting a blowjob right now from Angelina Jolie.

It's possible, yes. I don't know where you or Angelina Jolie are currently at. The question is: Is it likely? I strongly doubt it.

Now you cant prove that I am not, so by your logic it happened merely because I claimed it.

No, that's not my logic.

Somehow you rightfully reject that claim without considering it a possibility because you cant see me right now.

How about you cease acting like you can read my mind and just follow what I'm saying?

Yea you strongly doubt it and how much time did you waste considering that claim before you dismissed it?

The better tactic isn't "Prove it isn't true", the responsible thing to do before you adapt a claim someone might make is "Provide me evidence".

Here is why "Prove it isn't true" does not work. See if you can spot the pattern.

"Prove Allah isn't a real god"
"Prove Yahweh isn't a real god"
"Prove Vishnu isn't a real god"
"Prove Apollo isn't a real god"
"Prove invisible pink unicorns do not exist".

Again, you are playing a semantic game with words. "I don't know the future" does not mean we should dwell on the past, or treat any claim as true by default merely because someone made a claim. Otherwise all the claims above are "Possibilities" with equal weight. You accept them as not all being equal. So if you refuse to throw something in the trash can, "Just in case" psychologically that is YOU and your sense of fair play clouding your judgment.

Not reading your mind at all. I am going by the fact I have seen this argument countless times from other people for the past 13 years. I am sure you believe what you claim, I am not putting words into your head, I am explaining to you where your logic is flawed.
