Actually, Occam's razor I think would go against atheism oddly enough. Occam's Razor suggests that when picking among theories you pick the one with the least amount of new assumptions. As far as history goes, atheism is relativly new as far as a belief goes. Going back in time, it seems as if all groups had some form or religion or another. "The spiritual" is really anything but new as far as a field of existence goes. It's worth noting the creator. William of Occam, who was himself.... a fransician friar. The creator of this principle said... “only faith gives us access to theological truths. The ways of God are not open to reason, for God has freely chosen to create a world and establish a way of salvation within it apart from any necessary laws that human logic or rationality can uncover.” If anyone knows how to properly apply Occam's razor... it would be William of Occam.
Occam's razor is a lot like Godwin's law. People mistake Godwin's law as "Whoever mentions hitler or nazis first loses an arguement." |
