Assuming you are asking why I believe in the Biblical God: Because such a presupposition logically provide an explanation for things like knowledge, logic, and morals whereas other positions do not (they are internally consistent).
Second question answer: I don't. One of the things I come here for is to see what kind of arguments others might provide against my position. So far...none have been forthcoming that show my presuppositions lead to illogical conclusions.
Third question answer: The internal logical consistency of the position as compared to other positions.
If you don't believe I have a Chemical Engineering degree... oh well. Similarly, I have zero confidence that you can explain how life can come from non-live via naturalistic organic chemistry mechanisms. Is this your fantasy?
There is no logic to your presupposition, only fantasy. The nice thing about fantasy is you get to make it conform to what ever you need. Good job!
Second: Tough to argue against a fantasy except to keep pointing out that it's only a fantasy. Still waiting for some proof but won't hold my breath.
Third: What logical consistency?
I never said I have an explanation so no fantasy. I just said no one knows YET and also said it does not require a creator fantasy to make me feel comfortable. Apparently you need the fantasy.
Maybe you should bone up on what presuppositions are. Everyone has them, even if they don't recognize what they are. Presuppositions are taken for granted...the starting point to argue from.
