Of course God is unfalsifiable

Name: Anonymous 2009-06-12 16:02

God's existence cannot be proven false.  Since God is unfalsifiable by definition, being unfalsifiable is a property of God's existence.  Since the statement God is unfalsifiable and cannot be disproven is accepted and supported by scientists and Atheists alike, then Occam's Razor shows the simplest explanation to be valid, since a defined and logical statement with scientific and academic consensus is more likely to be true than an argument against it. 

Calculus cannot be proven to be false.  Calculus doesn't wait for some physical evidence to appear and disprove it since Calculus is already logically defined.  We can't prove Calculus exists as a physical thing, but we know Calculus is valid.  Calculus uses self supporting axioms based on the unfalsifiable laws of logic, where abstract theorems do not require physical testability to be valid.  There are many invalid proofs by amateurs who try to disprove Calculus based on a limited understanding of Calculus and a desire to prove Calculus wrong, yet it doesn't matter if you choose not to believe in Calculus or if you declare all of it invalid simply because you don't like it, as such arguments will not make mathematicians everywhere drop the study of Calculus because you don't think it has sound logic.  No matter how you argue, Calculus cannot be falsified. 

Replacing Calculus with God's existence shows the same properties and the same reasons why arguments against them do not work.  Something can be both logically valid and non-falsifiable.

This guy has a point. OP's initial post of "Of course God is unfalsifiable." is slightly incorrect. God is Undefinable; without definition there can be no distinguishing differences, no comparisons, no idea where to even start when identifying God because God has no distinct identity to that which is ABSOLUTE, and moreover ABSOLUTELY known to be true. Each human being can only know of God from their own point of views, their own beliefs, their own perceptions -albeit imaginary at times with some reality as a "PROVE-ALL" (considering all things imaginary are based entirely from all perceivable reality)- and therefore the only way to solve this problem is this simple logical argument;

1) Do you know of the word, "GOD?"
2) Do you have this word on your mind at least once a day?
3) Does this word affect your emotions positively/negatively at any given time of day?
If any of these, or all of these are a resounding yes; CONGRATULATIONS!!!

YOU BELIEVE IN THE WORD OF "GOD." Suckers. XD
