argument for the existence of god

Matt Slick attempts to answer my refutation of TAG

February 19, 2010

Matt Slick and I have at it again over TAG. Matt slick’s attempt to explain away my refutation is full of holes and misunderstandings of things I have said. I think I really hold his feet to the fire on the circularity and question begging problems though.

Gods that exist outside the universe don’t exist.

February 4, 2010

I have been comfortable in the past allowing theists to propose that their deity is outside of the universe.  I allowed it because I thought I knew what the meaning of that word meant.  I was mistaken. What is the universe? The word universe actually encompasses all that exists, has existed, or will exist.  That [...]

Something out of nothing

February 1, 2010

Theists try to say that atheists believe that everything came from nothing, but let’s examine what Theists believe for a moment. The contradiction of something from nothing Something coming from nothing is a contradiction, just like if I told you to pour water out of an empty bucket, you couldn’t do it.  In order to [...]

Theists arguing for deism.

January 7, 2010

I have been noticing some rather interesting things over the years, and have always said that the only godlike entities that don’t fail logical tests are deist or pantheist views on a god.  While they don’t fail, they both suffer from the “who gives a shit” factor.  This being distinguished from the “why should I [...]

Dr. William Lane Craig disproves the cosmological argument.

December 13, 2009

One of the most common things people that believe in God argue is that if there is no God, that means the universe came from nothing.  This seems rather reasonable doesn’t it?  No, and this is why. We have two ideas, one where stuff just popped into existence, and another where an eternally existing, all [...]

The Teleological Argument Refuted

December 7, 2009

The teleological argument for the existence of God covers many things.  The watchmaker, the boat builder, the painting and the fine tuning argument are all examples of this argument.  They all suffer from similar flaws. The Watchmaker Argument If an ancient man were walking down the beach and stumbled upon a watch, he would look [...]

The Argument There are a few different forms of this argument, [...]

Matt Slick’s TAG further refuted.

November 30, 2009

A few weeks ago, I went through and refuted Matt Slick’s TAG argument.  Since then, I have talked to Matt a couple times on Paltalk and have realized that the problem he has is the idea that there are things that can be absolutely known to be objective.  His claim is that since minds are [...]
