Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion

My expressed view aligns with that of Karl Popper, the philosopher of science, who first formulated the falsifiability test. You stand as a representative of those atheists who cry bullshit when a theist says something they do not understand.

In the meantime Chad, where is your evidence for God?

And remember: Logical argumentation is not evidence. You can debate until the cows come home: It's not evidence.

Chad's signature Wrote:Cabbages cannot form beliefs. Therefore cabbages lack belief in god(s). Therefore cabbages are atheists.

1. An atheist has to be a person.

2. It's not a lack, it's an absence. There is nothing lacking in atheism.

He doesn't have any evidence for God. He just like to use circular word salad and string along words together that don't fit.

That's fine that your views are in line with Karl Popper. But there is no more proof of an "essential nature" of being from him, then from you, or I, or anyone else. It is still philosophy. And even still, how you get from "empirical science may not get us to the whole truth of reality," to "God exists" is quite a leap, so I'm still calling bullshit.

I am on Karl Poppers side, I agree that a scientific theory should be unfalsfiable.

Which is why God is outside of nature... and reality and existence.

There can be no evidence for the supernatural: Because it's unfalsifiable.

If evidence were found for God, he would be falsifiable and natural, and hence not "supernatural" and hence not God Big Grin

Regarding the bolded part, I assume you meant to write "falsifiable"?
