But that's neither here nor there in relation to God, because you can't experience God through your senses. (Or, if you can, tell me how and I'll certainly give it a shot myself.)
If you don't toss out sensory experiences, then they are evidence of the non-existence of any god. And yes, you can experience the presence or lack of god through your senses. If there were an omnipotent being who loved us, you could see the results of his actions, just like I can see the results of your actions, typing on a computer.
But you still completely missed the point. That you have a non zero percent chance to be hallucinating at any given time. So once again, sensory evidence points to probability of chair existence, not certainty.
NativeJovian wrote:Let's start with "an omnipotent and omniscient being".
So you don't think creator of the universe is a necessary quality of a god?
Now please define being, omnipotent, and omniscient.
For being, I want as exact and technical definition as you can.
For omniX I will suffice with knowing your position on burritos and free will, with a clarification on where the sphere of action is "the universe" or "everything."

Fuck you asshole. Pay attention. I do have evidence they are wrong. They self admit to having no evidence they are right. It's not my problem that the fucking Pope himself can't point to his evidence for god's existence and tells people to take it on faith.
There beliefs are wrong. I know this because I have evidence that they are wrong. I further know this because they have no evidence they are right. People with 'more evidence' can believe whatever they want, but if their beliefs are not based on evidence, and they in fact admit to having zero evidence in favor of their position. Their beliefs are clearly not evidence based.

Remember what I said earlier: if something being true has consequences, and those consequences are not true, that is evidence that it is not true.
You can't physically experience my existence either. You can experience the results of my existence, and that may lead you to the inference that I exist. Likewise, if someone asked you if there were a Gaming Den poster named "KJHOIHBKJNBKJNB" who wrote the Tome of Virtue and posted it yesterday, you would not have physical evidence of his non-existence. You would have experienced the lack of evidence indicating his proposed actions, and based on his actions never occurring, you would know that he does not exist.

I will, right as soon as I find out what you mean by "God."
So far we have ruled out:
Christianity/Islam/Norse Gods/Judaism/Greek Gods, ect.
After your response to this post, we might also have ruled out a deistic god. And we might even have enough of a definition to actually know what you do mean instead of just what you don't mean.
