Is it even possible to calculate a probability of God existence?

>Is it even possible to calculate a probability of God existence?
What have you tried?

>> No.10708616

God either does or doesn't exist, so 50%

>> No.10708622

I haven't tried anything. I think it's completly crazy to try. I think if God exists it should be tautology. No matter about perspective, it should be logical.

>> No.10708637

If it's possible, doesn't it mean that there is a place (or time) where God is not?

>> No.10708640

It's 1 or 0, nothing between.

>> No.10708717

Don't think it's 50:50. It's not just about the count of possibilities (that we made on our own - build on your stupid dualistic thinking). When you throw a dice, its the same possibility for every option, because it's a cube - it has all sides long the same. But the idea of God existence and nonexistence are not samé valuable.

Belief in god is basically a choice right now. There is nothing substantial in favour of atheism or theism

Not a random event, thus you can't talk probabilities. It's like asking the probability of yellow being a color, or it being a flavour.

The absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

>> No.10708991

>>10708798
I don’t see how there is an absence of evidence. If you expected a man on a cloud you never understood theism to begin with.

>> No.10709000

>>10708991
It's true that theism is more general than established religions, but most religions involve literal miracles and apparitions for which there isn't any credible evidence.

>> No.10709039

>>10708798
There is lots of evidence.
Evidence does not have to be only conclusive evidence.
That God can be a sophisticated rational concept, that there are many sophisticated rational arguments, that there are major world religions with many people claiming to experience God; these are all evidences pointing towards God being real.

Empiricism is a literal meme. Explain to me why red is red

This. Existence in and of itself is the greatest possible miracle already. Your existence within the greater existence is a really close third, just under mine.

>> No.10709401

Imagine thinking yourself logical and educated enough to post on /sci/ and then start foaming at the mouth when someone attacks your imaginary friend that is totally cool and punishes the bad guys and is good.
Takes a special breed of retard to base your life decisions around baseless *faith* born out of ingroup. If you were born in Japan you'd be worshipping a tree.

if you dont know answer to the question you can assume an answer and it will be right 100% of the time till you find out the answer.
So we dont know if god exists or not at the moment so we can both assume it does and we will be right and vice versa.
