Comment on What can we do when something is too vast to provide representative examples for?
Maalus@lemmy.world 6 months agoAh yes, objective morality and the ‘maker argument’ which can be summed up to “if I go out in the woods, step on shit, look around, no animals that I can see, god must have shat himself”. That’s the thing - you can’t prove god exists. You filled in the gap with a mythology and think it’s the only explanation for life to exist. So you cannot bring proof. So you cannot convince an atheist that god exists because you yourself don’t even know that.

So basically your method is “Disregard all evidence of God as being something else”. Seems rational.

You have no evidence.

I do, it just doesn’t meet your ridiculous standard

Ah yes my ridiculous standard of “it needs to be true”. You have nothing. Otherwise it wouldn’t be religion and faith, it would be common sense. You use parlor tricks to confuse people who don’t know better. But when someone knows all of your tricks and calls them out one by one, you throw a hissy fit.
