RE: Agnostic Atheism - Isn't It Really The Only Reasonable Stance To Take?

in #atheism8 years ago (edited)

An uncaused cause has not been reasoned though. It is nothing more than special pleading. A formal logical fallacy plain and simple. If there is such a thing as an uncaused cause then your premise of cause and effect is destroyed. Now if for a second we say that an uncaused cause is logical and justified. That doesn't get us to conscious deity that intervenes in human affairs.

There are clergy that become atheists too. The sword swings both ways. It doesn't validate either point. Personal experience isn't reasonable evidence either. So again we are back at agnostic atheism as being the only reasonable stance.

Sort:  

"Now if for a second we say that an uncaused cause is logical and justified. That doesn't get us to conscious deity that intervenes in human affairs."

You're right; it doesn't. For that, you need revelation--the Deity to condescend to reveal Himself personally to you.

Like I said above, you won't come to faith in God through logical arguments. However, I do hope and pray that you do come to faith in Him. You may not believe in Him yet, but be assured that He believes in you and loves you.

"Like I said above, you won't come to faith in God through logical arguments."

Yea, that pretty much sums up the topic. I just don't see a logical road to god. I also recognize that god hasn't been and quite possibly can't be disproved. I dunno!
