Why Anarcho-Capitalism Is a Canard and Its Implications for Atheism

[log]

Christians have an alternative - which they don't like.  Atheists, however, don't look to me like they have an alternative.  I'm open to any counterexamples of a social foundation that atheists appeal to which cannot be reduced, in the end, to resource monopolization based on threats of force.

And what is the christian alternative that is not available to atheists?

A propertyless system whereby men have all things in common and none withholds nor threatens.  For such a system to work, human nature must be transformed, and that goes into religious claims.

I have never seen atheists appeal to any other foundation for a social order other than private property.
When I ask for a counterexample, I am rebuffed.
The inference to the best explanation is that there is no other foundation that atheists can appeal to.

This is the same kind of argument as:
All the swans I have ever seen have been white.
Nobody has claimed to have seen a non-white swan.
The inference to the best explanation is that all swans are white.

As this is an inference to the best explanation based on the evidence I have before me, it is necessarily tentative and it can be overturned by a counterexample.

So because you've never seen it, it doesn't exist? Shoot, you even brought up the swan argument that defeats your own faulty logic. I didn't even have to point that out to you, and yet you still seem lost about it in thinking it actually supports your argument.

Yeah, I'm done here.

Because I've never seen it, and get rebuffed when I ask to see it, I infer it *probably* doesn't exist.  Unicorns, leprechauns, etc.
