Quote:The problem with the "God-of-the-gaps" objection is that it can have unintended consequences for atheism. Specifically, it makes atheism impossible to falsify, in the same way that most religious beliefs cannot be falsified. Rather than rely on science, "God-of-the-gaps" pushes atheism far away from being a scientific belief.
If there was atheistic dogma, and our lack of belief was based heavily on the god-of-the-gaps (science will fill it in eventually) argument, you might have a point.
But there isn't, and we don't. So this entire article is moot.
