Doe it really matter if God exists or not...?

Round and round the fallacious carousel you go...

So you resorted to the same old Proof by Assertion and refuse to address your God of the Gaps fallacy. Looks like you have resorted to the Argument from Silence fallacy, too. So let's just recap. Your claims are solely dependent on Proof by Assertion and the God of the Gaps fallacies. When asked to prove your assertions to be correct, you have not fulfilled your burden of proof as you have provided absolutely zero citations and no direct evidence, and you also resorted to the ad nauseaum fallacy. And as the cherry on top, you responded to my continued skepticism with an Argument from Silence fallacy. Your thinking process is extremely predicable and can be easily refuted, so feel free to put in your last sophist words because the fallacious carousel is not my kind of ride.

 

lol... so all you can do is call out fallacies without elaborating on them?

this is absolutely hilarous, i am honestly lost for words

 

i'll try one last time

"""all i am saying is that this is similar to what has been done with concepts associated with a god"

can you elaborate on how this employs the god of the gaps fallacy?""

Atheists are used to debating Christians and their arguments. Over the years we've come to expect certain Christian arguments, and have gotten in the habit of rebutting them. But you're not a Christian, and so we expect a certain argument, and you throw out something completely different. In other words you are throwing him for a loop, because he's assuming you're a Christian. I almost fell into the same mistake at first too. xD

The structure of the supposid God of the Gaps fallacy goes like this... 

1. We can't explain X with science. 

2. God would explain X. 

3. Therefore God must exist. 

You can fill in X with just about anything that science or philosophy doesn't understand yet. For example a God of the gaps argument from ancient Egyptians would have looked like this... "We don't know why the sun moves across the sky. Ra's chariot pulling the sun would explain that. Therefore Ra exists."
