his assertion i dismiss without evidence
>philosophy truke
>is self-defeating

or with evidence you could say seeing he was confessedly a homo neocon

>hoes mad

People don't like it when your explanation for the supernatural is simply "they lied". I've had first-hand experience with my family and folk religion claims. How does my uncle's water witching jar work? He moves his hand.
>"No, he doesn't move his hand."
>"Yes, he does."
>"Are you calling me a liar, boy?"
>"Yes."

We've not been on good terms since, near 20 years on.

you dismiss the assertion that you can dismission an assertion that has been asserted without evidence

so where's your evidence?

Morality doesn't exist.

Where is the evidence God doesn't exist?

>>17810821
>God
what's that?`

>>17810824
You know what God is or you would not seethe over him constantly.

400 years later they're still handing out PhDs to people too retarded to grasp this.

Where's the evidence he does?

Where is his evidence for his assertion?

In fairness, it's entirely feasible he isn't doing this consciously:

Morality exists because humans enforce it.

hitchens is an absolute and utter subhuman, and i say that as a non-believer

Morality is an evolutionary trait, exactly the same as emotions. It makes animals better at cooperating, increasing their chances of survival. It's not objective but it does mean that morality would develop roughly the same way, e.g. feeling bad about murder is clearly more evolutionary beneficial than wanting to kill everyone you see.

He had other methods that were far less plausibly denied of guilt. Like holding a pocket knife loosely in his palm and claiming the blade turned over in the direction of water. But only he could do it because he was special like that.

>>17811272
Morality is a word humans made-up

This post and all composition of its existence and observation, is omnipositional and multisingular evidence that the statement in OP's pic is false.

>>17811854
Humans made up all words, brainlet.

Does the assertion 1 + 1 = 2 require evidence?

>>17812827
Technically we do have a written proof that 1 + 1 = 2 but it's over 150 pages long. You can also simply demonstrate this in the real world with 2 objects though.

Assertion: The existence of God is an impossibility.
No atheist has conclusively proven this to be true.
Thus God's existence remains possible, until this very day.
No atheist has certainty that God is not real.
There is no certainty in atheism.

The one's I am thinking of basically if right toss large parts of philosophy out and solve multiple problems. They are also philosophers who are not wrong but professional philosophers have to provide better answers rather than go head on aganist them.

Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason- destoryed natural philosophy of religion and metaphysics.


Nagarjuna-Destoryed metaphyscial realism, destroyed ontology, destoryed mereology, turns the principle of sufficient reason aganist itself


Hilary Putnam- ends the relevance of metaethics and questions of the metaphysics of agency, centers all ethics on normative ethics

Ludwig Wittgenstein- Ends metaphysics and renders it all philosophy of language

>>17812939
That's fine, religions are making far more claims than just "God exists"
