No, you have not. You have attempted to, but you have been shown that it is full of bullocks. Observation has to apply. I asked you already to name one thing which we know to exist that cannot be observed. Your answer was the color blue. I countered this. You still insist you are right. That doesn't make you right.

I have shown precisely, and all you have done is to try to introduce objectivity of a non object. What strange logic! The 'blue' answer was not mine, but your fellow atheist. I don't 'insist' that I am right. I presume to be right in the absence of reasonable opposition.

Well what is your special pleading' point if not a plea to uniqueness?? So you accept that uniqueness is no reason to except the possibility... so you can consider a being without needing to be observable then?
