Thread: Is it logical to assume a position of non-belief on god or is it just a...

...prediction like a prophet would use? If you state that you do not believe in god because you have no proof is the reverse any more logical? Is that a definitive reason for a non-belief or belief or are both just an argument from ignorance (Draws a conclusion based on lack of knowledge or evidence without accounting for all possibilities)

Logic is like mathematics it is consistent 1+1 always =2 not 1+1=2 99% of the time and 1+1=11 on 1% of special occasions or when it furthers an issue.

Stating there is or is not a god is just a prediction based on probabilities totally dependent on who is looking where and when neither opinion is valid or invalid and both are null and void. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but not their own truth.

If anyone sees logical contradictions- which is the only case that i can think of that requires no biased assumptions -in believing in God, let he/she show them ... they would certainly be remembered forever.(i.e. Deduction without assumption is not possible here)

Summary: in a heads-god/tails-no god, coin toss-where the probability of heads/tails is not known and cannot be known - each prediction of the outcome is as efficient as the other. It would be moronic to reticule someones prediction over your own. That much should be obvious!

Is it logical to assume a position of non-belief on vampires?

Hmm...


...

If God exists, he could make himself known by our standards. He is omnipotent. He has not done so. Therefore, his non-existence is a reasonable inference.

Any justification for why he would remain hidden is pure speculation. Therefore, it is pure conjecture to say that he exists but has chosen to remain hidden.

This is not an equal propositions scenerio. It is one reasonable proposition against conjecture. God does not exist.

Ahhh but beyond death there is a definitive answer and who can deny the truth that men are born in this world and men die in the same world. So... we will find out sooner or later. But I'll take my chances with God because eternal life is a guarantee with Jesus as my lord and savior. Whats the guarantee for those who don't believe, worm food?

You're pretty much right. Although no atheists are going to admit that. Instead, they'll probably try to claim that believing in God is silly and childish. Proof by ad-hominem!
