dasheenster:: If you wish to remain stubbornly dogmatic in your contention that only conclusive evidence for atheism or against theism warrants a change of opinion, I shall point you toward some arguments against theism, and in turn to some for atheism/agnosticism.
See this, starting at 2. Arguments against Theism: http://commonsenseatheism.com/?p=5657.
See these two as well: http://www.philosoph...or-agnosticism/, and http://www.philosoph...s-for-atheism/.
Good site but there are too many issues to even hope to address them all. Perhaps rather than point at the library, you could point out a book you find compelling that relates to the topic. Focus. I will list one of my own so two can play. It will be at the end of this post.
dasheenster: My mention of "sentimental illogicality" was meant to argue against your position that God's existence is self-evident ("For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so they are without excuse."), by virtue of nature, he reveals himself subtly to every individual heart. Rousseau held a similar position as evidence by, "I believe...that a will moves the universe and animates nature. This is my first dogma, or my first article of faith...This ‘being’ which wills and is powerful, this being active in itself, this being, whatever it may be, which moves the universe and orders all things, I call God...But as soon as I want to contemplate Him in Himself, as soon as I want to find out where He is, what He is, what His substance is, He escapes me, and my clouded mind no longer perceives anything...I do not need to be taught this worship; it is dictated to me by nature itself". I bitterly oppose this sort of thinking. Though, you could also have been implying that the ontological argument is self-consistent and self-evident. I would also challenge that contention, were you to uphold it.
So what are you saying here, the creation does not support belief in reasonable people? We will just have to disagree, challenge as you will, the cosmoses existence has caused many brilliant minds to fine God is the answer for why there is something rather than nothing. So you don’t believe, that is not a defeater for the scripture you quoted and in fact the scripture argues some will not believe. What evidence do you have that I should not believe there is a God.. Give me evidence proving Atheism.
dasheenster: And let's not throw careless ad hominems around. Having a thought disorder doesn't necessarily invalidate the beliefs you're expressing.
You are right, even an idiot can pronounce truth. That does not keep them from being an idiot does it?
Some sources to balance the ones you presented. I included Craig’s which deals with all the issues raised in your offering. Let’s focus.
