I understand where she is coming from with her argument, but I disagree that lack of proof disproves the existence of God.

"But you don't tell me you can't know that there isn't. I would say yes I know there isn't because I have been given no evidence."

Lack of evidence should not give a rational person certainty that something is untrue. This is why I'm agnostic and not atheist. It's entirely possible for something to be true and at the same time there be no proof of it. Maybe I just did a backflip, but I wasn't recording it and there were no witnesses. I know I did a backflip, but I can never prove that I did it. That would be a case where something is true and also has no proof.

Lack of proof should cast doubt on something, but not disprove it. I'm pretty sure I've argued extensively with MJordan/Desmethones about this in the past.

Thank you for at least saying "maybe", !K_A!
That has me content enough to leave the arguement.

I'm actually pretty content too. You have reasoned and argued rationally in a manner which promotes healthy debate.

This is essentially how I feel about it, somewhat. I just feel that human logic and understanding isn't capable of unwrapping the universe we live in. What if there are multiple universes? Mankind cannot grasp at these straws at more than things we can measure with our current intellect and technology, but it doesn't mean we should sit around and worship something that a group of men wrote a couple thousand years ago, we should instead go out and try to solve the answers as a human race.

I honestly don't care what's in the Universe/Multiverse. I have a laptop, and it works by me plugging it in, and programing it to do whatever I want it do. Gears turn, data saves. That's all I need to get by. All anyone else needs is to know how to make it. The world can be perfectly content with that.

Well, what purpose do you care? No matter how much you look at what a rock is made of, it's still just going to sit there, doing nothing but rock-ing around. The moon moves around us, the sun gives us light. Why bother looking at them and figuring out what direction everything is going? It's nothing special.

Having more knowledge is rarely a bad thing. If humans just took everything at face value and didn't ask questions, we would still be living in caves.

And many less species would be dying. Including the planet itself.
