You Can't Argue Against God

[Nakosis]

Why?
Because since you don't know God, you can't justify any argument against something you don't know.

For example you can say there is no evidence of God. How can you say that if you don't know what God is? How can you claim something is not evidence of God?

IOW, how can you mount an argument against something when you lack knowledge about the subject of the argument?

By the same logic nothing can be said in favor of god either. Your stance makes any discussion totally pointless.

Is this not a two way street?

Yes, that which is unknown, we only know one thing about it, namely that it is unknown.

 

[SalixIncendium]

I can quite easily argue against or for God once one conveys to me what they claim to know about God.

Doesn't it work this way too?

The argument is to those who claim such things. As of yet, there is no actual God around to argue with. Just people and people alone.

 

[mikkel_the_dane]

Yeah, but that is what they claim. As least as I was taught that, that is not what they know as such. Rather they claim to know.

It is not that we can't debate claims about God. It is if we can know about God as God.

Whether you realize it or not, you just supported the OP’s claim.

How can you know what people know?

 

[mikkel_the_dane]

How can you know what people know?

Yeah, that is the problem.

 

[rocala]

I can quite easily argue against or for God once one conveys to me what they claim to know about God.

And the OP makes it clear that he knows absolutely nothing.

 

[We Never Know]

How can you know what people know?

I'm just going with the OP but going with knowing god instead of not knowing god.

Maybe you should ask that to the poster of the OP

 

[Twilight Hue]

Lett's hope so, and to include those claiming there is a God when in reality there is no such thing like that at all. It's just someone expressing their imagination about something that just isn't there.

No such thing like what?

Well, I like evidence that there is no God. The actual observation of no God. Can you do that? Not that you can reason, but actual evidence.

 

[Twilight Hue]

No such thing like what?

Whatever God it is that they are describing.

 

[mikkel_the_dane]

Whatever God it is that they are describing.

Yeah, but that is not the same as there is no God or that there is a God. If it is unknown, then it is unknown for both cases.

 

[Twilight Hue]

Yeah, but that is not the same as there is no God or that there is a God. If it is unknown, then it is unknown for both cases.

Then they should stop describing their unknown God until they can prove it.

It's pretty straightforward.
