Philosophical arguments against the existence of God

[anonymous person]

Please present evidence that they were impacted by a deity.

Why?

 

[Loudmouth]

Why?

You don't have to if you don't want to. However, your inability to present evidence and repetition of empty rhetoric only proves my point.

 

[HitchSlap]

Why?

Because you have earlier stated you want to believe as many true things as possible, and that is impossible to do, unless you're willing to jettison those beliefs for which there is no good justification for their acceptance.

You have not told me why you want me to do what you ask.

I agree with everything you say.

Loudmouth has not answered my question though.

You have not told me why you want me to do what you ask.

Actually, my argument works better if you continue to avoid giving evidence.

 

[HitchSlap]

I agree with everything you say.

Then why assert a belief you cannot support? What's the point?

You still have not answered the question.

Why do you want me to give you the evidence you ask for?

I don't assert beliefs I cannot support.

I think we agree with one another on this.

I don't care one way or another. Your choice. Either keep making empty assertions or present evidence. When you keep making empty assertions, it helps my argument quite a bit. I am merely pointing out to the readers that you are using empty assertions.

I have yet to see you support a belief with evidence.

You're exactly right. It is my choice and since you don't care, I choose not to entertain the question.

If you did care, and cared enough to tell me why you want the evidence you ask for, this conversation would go further.

You can go back through my posts one by one if you like. I am sure you will find instances where I support certain beliefs with evidence.

I have read your posts in this thread. I have yet to find a single one that is backed by evidence.

As predicted. Just more proof that all you have are empty assertions and platitudes.

Take it how you will. I won't protest.

You know your wife exists because you have at times been in her immediate and personal presence and communicated with her either audibly or inaudibly.

I know what a wife is. Implicit in my questions was, what is a "holy spirit"? From what I gather, it is a label for a thing that you imagine to exist, and that you imagine affects your thoughts by some undefinable and otherwise undetectable means. It is, for all intents and purposes, your imagination. Is that not accurate?

Notice, I was asked how I "know" something exists, not how I "show" something exists.

Sure. It seems that you rely on your internal experiences to validate your internal experiences. You can't show that these experiences are valid outside of your head, but for reasons you have yet to make clear you continue to refer to them as if they should be of significance to others.

Is it your intent to convince others here that you are not simply imagining all of this god stuff?

 

[Loudmouth]

A tacit admission that you haven't supported a single assertion you have made in this thread.

 

[HitchSlap]

No, we don't. You claim to have a relationship with a supernatural deity/Jesus/spirit, a claim which you cannot demonstrate to be true.
