The Case for Theism

[Esquilax]

I'm not closing my mind to your counter arguments and have responded to many of them. But when you or others say my arguments have failed or have no merit...well of course your going to say that unless you change your mind and decide to become a theist.

Your arguments have failed because they haven't convinced us to turn to theism. Think about that for a moment. If you actually had a convincing case, it would... you know, convince people.

Of course this is predominantly an atheist board.

So what? Atheists follow the evidence, generally speaking. In particular, my atheism is a product of having seen no compelling evidence for the existence of a creator god; I just won't believe in something before there's a reason to. You've presented arguments. They have not done anything to convince me of the truth of your position. I have no entrenched need to not believe in a god- there's nothing to gain from that, if you think about it- so any sufficiently cogent argumentation coupled with real evidence can convince me. I just don't find your particular brand of argument to even point to the need for a god.
