Fascinating.
And what scientific evidence do we have about God? |
The scientific method is about disproving things so we have a narrower view of what the reality is.
Currently I believe science cannot disprove God.

science has nothing to do with god, true enough
logic does. a priori reasoning is exactly perfect for this task. if you define a being with certain attributes those then become true by definition for argument. these attributes can then be used as premises. for example:
1) God exists.
2) God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent.
3) An omnibenevolent being would want to prevent all evils.
4) An omniscient being knows every way in which evils can come into existence.
5) An omnipotent being has the power to prevent that evil from coming into existence.
6) A being who knows every way in which an evil can come into existence, who is able to prevent that evil from coming into existence, and who wants to do so, would prevent the existence of that evil.
7) If there exists an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent God, then no evil exists.
8) Evil exists (logical contradiction).
this can be applied to any god concept to test for internal consistency and consistency with the observable world |
The problem is that you have not proved evil exists.
In my opinion evil is the lack of good like darkness is the lack of light. Just as darkness is nonexistant, evil is also nonexistant. If the existance of evil cannot be proven, then the nonexistance of God likewise cannot be proven.

ive heard this asinine argument before. its still stupid, when will you people learn? a photon is something - yes, great (light). darkness is the absence of photons (great).
what is good? what is bad? its a false analogy. neither one is anything but a concept. didnt realize I had to prove obvious things. do evil acts exist? yes - murder, rape, assault.
im sorry for totally destroying your counter so as to be unrecognizable from a small pile of dogshit but I can tell you actually thought it held some credence. I actually feel sorry for how uninformed you are. |
Not to say you are wrong or anything, but it is my understanding that these acts of murder, rape, assault are caused by lack of self control, knowlege, and/or guidance. For example, when you are ignorant, you lack pieces of knowlege rather than having pieces of ignorance.
