(August 26, 2019 at 11:58 pm)Objectivist Wrote: Although I am an atheist, that's not my worldview. I'm an Objectivist. As such I reject the notion of the supernatural in all its variations. I won't be debating the existence of gods because I don't consider the existence of gods to be debatable. Debate presupposes the primacy of existence principle, the notion of gods denies it. Therefore, debating the existence of gods commits the fallacy of the stolen concept and so it is irrational. I won't be asking anyone for evidence for gods because the concept evidence presupposes the primacy of existence which the notion of a god rejects. I won't ask anyone for proof for the same reason. Proof presupposes metaphysical objectivism, the notion of god rests on metaphysical subjectivism. Reason and logic both assume the primacy of existence and I won't set reason aside for the sake of argument.I am not so up on objectiveism but from what you wrote here it seems like you are making a claim that a god does not exist. If not, then you have no means to know if a god exists. Is this close to being correct?
