  • I can't prove that he doesn't exist, but just because you can't prove that something doesn't exist doesn't mean that it does exist. I can't prove that leprechauns don't exist either, but I'm not going to seriously consider the notion that they do exist just because I can't prove that they don't. Of course, you might want to clarify what you mean by 'god,' before asking if it exists; God has plenty of definitions and concepts, and before trying to discern the existence of any sort of god, you might want to determine what attributes this thing would have first. I might claim to believe in or be partial to a Spinozist or pantheistic god, or maybe even a deistic sort of god, but if your definition of god includes things like "created everything in its present state about 6,000 - 10,000 years ago, is omnipotent and omniscient, intervenes in human affairs, etc." I might be inclined to say that that god is likely nonexistent. Define 'god' first.

    • You can't prove his existence nether can you prove he doesn't exist. So in conclusion you simply don't know. It all comes down to belief and you don't believe.... So just shut up about it.

      • I think you should take Eagwol's advice.

        • I'll wait my turn, thanks. But I'm more than willing to use you as a test subject.

          • No thanks; I'd feel guilty if you slipped up and offed yourself in some idiotic fashion (considering your intelligence, that would be a likely outcome).

            BTW, how do you know I 'don't believe?' Did you even read my post, or is anything written beyond a "See Spot Run," reading level too complex for you?
