Becoming an angry atheist

RE: Becoming an angry atheist
(December 8, 2014 at 9:57 am)ChadWooters Wrote: So you're going to just assert that the regularity with which specific effects follow from specific causes happen for no reason at all, a brute fact that requires no justification for that belief. Of course past experience demostrates such regularities in nature, which is the fact to be explained. How do you explain it?

That's just it, no one asserts that they just happen. They follow natural laws whose origins are uncertain and show absolutely no evidence of being the result of some greater intelligence. As was pointed out, you're begging the question by claiming that they must be the result of an intelligence and also creating a false dichotomy by assuming that they must be the result of an intelligence or happen for no reason at all.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
