Quote:1. Formulate the information of the concept of universe creating pixies, thus: "Universe creating pixies in concept are first and foremost the creators and operators of the universe and man and everything with a beginning."
2. Look for instances of causation in reality outside of concepts in our mind.
3. We find countless examples of causation in reality outside of concepts in our mind.
4. From the countless instances of causation in reality, we infer to the existence of a first and ultimate cause.
5. We find that the first and ultimate cause of all instances of causation in reality corresponds to our information on the concept of universe creating pixies, namely, the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
6. Conclusion: universe creating pixies exists in concept as first and foremost the creators and operators of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
Ta Da!
This is fun.
What else can be logiced into existence?
At the end of the day this argument is simply a joke, to mock the existence of God and keep in mind the atheist does not even believe in the universe creating pixies even though he uses the argument against the existence of God. Christianity, the Bible, and the Christian God, however, are based on far more than being unfalsifiable. Positive evidence and a cumulative case have always been part of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Those who attempt to use the Pixies argument against the concept of God are not making an intelligent argument; they are being fallacious and deceptive.
Exactly! The pixie argument is completely made-up bullshit. I am obviously the Creator Goddess and these foolish atheists are just mocking me. I'm glad to have someone like you on my side. This is exactly why I made sure you were created.

Don't worry Jesster, the gnome gods don't banish anyone from their kingdom (unlike some I could mention) so you will be forgiven for your heresy.

Hmm, I need to find a way of objectively verifying whether you are telling the truth or not.
So I'll spend tonight searching my feelings and trust what my heart tells me.

No need to do that. Just close your eyes, count to three then open them. Then, when something happens, it will be a sign from the gnome gods telling you what you already believe in your heart, but choose to ignore and deny.

You are committing the Edward John fallacy, which goes like this:
Edward John agrees with me.
Therefore, I am right.
The reason this is fallacious? It's because Edward John is always full of shit.

Its all good. If you don't crash, its a sign. If you crash and survive, its a sign. If you crash and don't survive, it'll be because you have been chosen to serve in the gnome kingdom [emoji38]
