Definition yours, bolding mine. You conveniently ignored this part of the definition to make your claim. Again, stop torturing language.

Let me parse it back into English for you: I question whether your first three propositions are demonstrably true, I question whether your fourth proposition is a coherent statement, and your conclusion is suspect.

If you can't figure out the context for the applicability of those three statements to your argument, I'm afraid I can't help you.

If we did it'd of course not be supernatural,i agree.
But we don't.
That's what makes it supernatural.

Wrong.

This seems similar to the "What would it take for you to believe" type threads.

My opinion isn't really and different. God would have to prove its existence, and explain some things.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!

It would be better off for me to simplify things.

This is what i think:

1*Aliens exist.
2*Superior Aliens exist.
3*Aliens have supernatural powers.
4*God is a "Supreme being" or a being that possesses supernatural powers that are beyond comprehensible for humans.
5*A Superior Alien race fit into the description of a god.
6*So Superior aliens are Gods.
7*Therefore Gods exist.

Tell me which part of my arguments are wrong and don't just say "its wrong" just because you think so,provide me with enough convincing information too.
Most of us think that the probability of a God in the universe is non-existent but believes in the existence of Aliens anyway.......


@Tonus , Thanks. :Big Grin

EDIT: I gave my points in the most simplified manner assuming that you're read through the detailed description of arriving at there point already,if you haven't please read that first or my points would look unconvincing.

What if we discovered an alien race that is inferior to us, would we then become gods or are we still just humans? Honestly this is no different from the people who say the universe is a god because its greater than us, which is just playing with labels. Also when you say a superior race of aliens, what do you mean by superior? What are they more superior at doing?

So has the OP realised what "supernatural" means yet?
Surely, he can't be that desperate for god to exist, that he is prepared to play word games for 3 pages to get his point across.  I just want him to answer 1 simple question honestly.
Does he believe in jesus?
No God, No fear.

According to logic i can ignore the other part.Because those two parts were connected by a "or" not a "and".Therefore i just have to prove atleast one of the part,not both.

ignoramus,
Do i believe in jesus?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
Jesus?
Seriously?
