False reasoning as in invalid arguments.

Quote:Your tendency to talk about praise, good, or evil, as though they were anything other than "Hey, I feel [insert any of them here]....ergo god."

These were intuitions, albeit, deluded, but they weren't based on invalid arguments. The arguments were valid, albeit, not sound.

The premises seemed to be true in properly basic way.

In fact these delusions are very strong in humans in general. Many Theists will say, if there is no God, where do you get your morals from?

Also many Atheists agree upon this type of reasoning, and assert that we don't know objective good exists.

There is a huge difference, in that, these intuitions seem strong in themselves, and to be honest, I don't know what to me of them still.

It stills seems to be the case, that there needs to be a eternal standard of good, praise, beauty, and value, for them to be objective and not delusions.

This isn't derived from an invalid argument, but it's a properly basic feeling.

Therefore there is no comparison between such a delusion and relying on invalid arguments in forms of anecdotal experience.

How did I insult you? I'm sorry if I did.
