Quote:There is no evidence for God or there being none. There is evidence that the likely hood of a God existing is more probable..
Would you like to have another go at that statement? Perhaps leave out the second bit. It doesn't simply contradict the first bit,it's also ,umm,wrong. As far as I'm aware ,there is NO evidence for the existence of god(s).
You think you have evidence? Please show me. I will be just thrilled and will change my position immediately, as I suspect will millions of atheists all over the world.You'll be so famous! No one in recorded history has ever managed to do what you have just claimed.
The best anyone can say is the existence of God has yet to be proves or falsified.
You are actually right in asserting at absence of evidence is not evidence absence.You are not right in asserting there is any evidence.As is common with apologists,it seem you either misunderstand or want to change the meaning of the words 'evidence' and 'probable"
These Wiki definitions cover them for me:
Quote:Evidence in its broadest sense includes everything that is used to determine or demonstrate the truth of an assertion. Giving or procuring evidence is the process of using those things that are either (a) presumed to be true, or (b) were themselves proven via evidence, to demonstrate an assertion's truth. Evidence is the currency by which one fulfills the burden of proof.

Quote:Probability is a way of expressing knowledge or belief that an event will occur or has occurred. The concept has been given an exact mathematical meaning in probability theory, which is used extensively in such areas of study as mathematics, statistics, finance, gambling, science, and philosophy to draw conclusions about the likelihood of potential events and the underlying mechanics of complex systems.
