I do. Can you prove I don't?Evidence is the responsibility of one making the positive assertion. What evidence do you have for magic and supernaturalism that defines assertions of your gods?It's silly to suggest that making reasoned assessments and then reaching conclusions about matters is gods-based. You're letting your fundamentalist beliefs color your comments. It's also silly and pointless to suggest that all conclusions are gods based.
In the absense of evidence, and in the absense of evidence for magical, supernatural entities, it is entirely rational to conclude that magic and supernaturalism are not elements of the natural, rational world.
You continue to hope to impose your religious beliefs on others. You need to work on that.
It would be silly. Except one cannot make a reasoned assessment or reach a conclusion without evidence. Do you have evidence?
I reach conclusions (make decisions) every day about "things", ie: events and circumstances that have no connection to religious belief. Those conclusions are based upon rational assessments of gain/loss, probable outcome, anticipated results, etc.
You're hoping to impose your religion on others and using fallacious reasoning to do so.
So you don't have evidence.
See how that works? I'm just using your standards, (such as they are), to make a point that you're not presenting an argument at all.
You having no evidence of the magical, supernatural entities that you claim I'm supposed to refute is silly and pointless. It's reasonable and rational to conclude that you have no evidence of supernatural entities and that it is a reasonable and rational conclusion that I do not need to live in trembling fear of your gawds.
No, I can't. But I would love to se it. Care to share?
I have no evidence of anything. I am making no claim other than that. My position is based upon a single proposition. So tell me why you disagree.
Any conclusion made in the absence of evidence is a belief.
See, I AM right! Agnostics 1, Everyone Else 0 !
