I don't really get the atheistic world view.

Theists need to support their claim, ok.
Atheists only take supported claims for granted, ok.

There are axioms in mathematics (and logic as well). What now?

Atheists are asking theists for proof, but at the same time, the whole system of logic and mathematics (logic is a branch of mathematics) has no proof! That is, the bare foundations of it, certain axioms such as a+b=b+a.

So my question is, why do atheists take logic for granted but don't take god, when god and logic are both assumptions based on nothing but belief?

And don't come up with the ol' "logic is supported", because it's not.

Belief in logic is far more useful than belief in God.

I'm not the close minded Christian, I'm a Pantheist studying math. This is genuine curiosity.

It is _precisely_ _not_ logic that 1+1=2. For you to prove that, you have to use five principles. Can you figure out what they are?
And to prove those five princples you would need another set of princples and to prove those princples you would need another set of princples etc etc to infinity.

And, logic isn't "the definite result of something". Sounds to me someone should do a little reading. Logic is the formal systematic study of the principles of valid inference and correct reasoning.

>> No.2858999

You're misunderstanding what an axiom is. An axiom is a simple statement that is useful and self evident. Look up mathematical axioms such as Peano's.

One of the axioms is that the successor of any number is also a number. We can't prove this, but it is obvious, self evident and useful. To deny it would kinda throw our understanding of mathematics out the window.

Now you are comparing the belief in God to an axiom, but this is a false comparison. The belief in God requires many more statements to justify itself. You need to define what God is, and then need to justify that argument.

Another mistake is that the belief in god is self evident. It's not.

>> No.2859003

>>2858963
It changes nothing in the world whether there is a god or not.
Reality is the same even if we believe.

Logic on the other hand is basic block on every human action and all communion.
We would not have for example, math or computer or science or anything without logic.
Without logic murder is legal and no laws exist.
There is no economy or trade.
You, or i would not exists.


On the other hand god exists or it doesn't.
Gods existance is not affecting our world in any direc way.
There is no added benefit in accepting god without evidence, as in:
Accepting god as an axiom.

The litle benefits it would bring ib are hugely overpowered by the huge disadvantages it brings.

Hence, there is no reason to make, "god exists" as an axiom, while making "1+1=2" an axiom is beneficial.

Is this a serious question?

Let's assume logic exists. Logic leads to science. Science means advances in medicine, technology, physics, biology, mathematics, all that shit. Those mean an ability to save lives, an ability to live longer, and ability to live easier, and ability to understand the world and ourselves better than anyone ever has in history. Logic is useful because it makes sense in our world.

Now, let's assume that god exists. What does that contribute? Um....the possibility that there's a slim chance that maybe there's an afterlife? Offering people happiness based on that fact? What else? Nothing.

Mathematics puts forward a set of basic assumptions about the structure of an abstract universe then builds the rest of the structure from these assumptions.

Now, how are this different from assuming that there is a deity? Simple: a deity is an inessential assumption to make from all observation.

The universe appears natural and does not appear to require a deity. Thus, assuming a deity is an extra complication that neither adds nor detracts from the system. Therefore, we do not assume that a deity exists.

It is like talking about the basic assumptions of set theory then asking what would change about set theory if we added the assumption that a deity exists. Nothing about set theory changes, so the assumption is unnecessary and has no effects.

As a mathematician and atheist I find some of the answers given here (even the ones by fellow atheists) to be a bit misleading. I don't find the comparison between the idea of a god and an axiom to be too bad, it's actually quite good. The only real answer here as to why scientifically oriented people choose the modern axioms of mathematics and related sciences is that they have proven to be useful i.e. we can actually build bridges and computers on which we can have discussions like this. Assuming axiomatically the existence of god is formally sound but no human being was able to demonstrate how this assumption brings anything useful apart from (perceived) self fulfillment (in some cases), which can be obtained by more relevant means by the way. As someone already mentioned above the existence of a god is an assumption which as of yet adds only unnecessary information to my life and doesn't improve it in any way, thus I decide not to make this assumption and concentrate only on those which actually seem useful.

order can be carried out, such as a monarchy, theology or whatever easier when people operate on faith alone such as them having faith that you, being a ruler hypothetically, are a god king and nobody need question it or understand why but only do what you are told.

That get's shit done. The only thing that really interferes with "shit getting done" is existentialisms. People who question life itself (no purpose, aim or answer is even needed to begin one's quest down this road) no matter their creed, religion or existential beliefs/answers/affirmations prevent "shit from getting done" because they're busy meditating instead of initiating action which gets le shit done when they are ~ordered~ to do so.

Yes. There is a difference between "Concept X has never been successfully applied" and "CONCEPT X IS NOT PROVEN HURR". If the former was a claim by the OP, he would have to be insane as logic has conceptually been proven UNIVERSALLY. The latter is being employed by the OP, and the false dichotomy comes in where he poses GOD as a contrast or parallel to the concept of logic. This is an extremely retarded thought because, AGAIN, he is trying to argue the existence of a jealous angry sky wizard who cares about him by saying "LOGIC ISN'T PROVEN!"

>> No.2859255

Operating within the assumption that what we observe to be demonstrably true is true is vastly different than positing an un-supported claim. This is because we are within the bounds of our perceived reality, and always have been. While there isn't any objective reason to believe that the world before us is real, it's a necessary axiom to get anything done, because there is no conceivable circumstance where it could be supported.

While this seems very similar to the claim of a specific God, the reason lies in the necessity of the assumption and the lack of arbitrary specificity. In the case of a God, it's an unnecessary concept with unjustified specificity and with conceivable circumstances where there would be evidence or proof of it. It's not necessarily an untestable claim, only framed that way, which is why one cannot be justified for believing it.

Logic follows from the world around us(1 canole plus 1 canole gets you two canoles), and the world around us is assumed to be real simply because there is no conceivable circumstance where we could have more evidence of its reality, and no conceivable circumstance where its reality or falseness could be tested. Even in the case that it is all a simulation or a dream or some such, logic still applies in a testable and consistent way within that unreality and so our conclusions are still valid.

Actually, I think I figured out another way in which axioms differ from the claim of God's existence.

Axioms represent relationships, they are almost apriori. However, axioms don't claim the existence of an entity. You can not logically prove what does exist. You can only do that aposteriori, you need observations.

I can not logically come to the conclusion that you exist without first talking to you. I need some experience to justify my claim that you exist. We would need a similar experience to justify the claim of God's existence.

Imagine a closed box. You can not prove using only logic what the box contains. You need to open it to find out.

Thank you for agreeing with everything I just said completely and in contradiction to your previous post, I guess?

>> No.2859519

This post contains a false statement.

>> No.2859528

1 apple added to 1 apple = 2 apples.. . Your hypothesis that mathematics and algebra is unsupported by a consistent relationship to reality is flat out false..

Secondly.. Atheists only say -- again-- that your claim that god exists has no proof, things which have no proof can be dismissed with no proof.

Also not /sci/ so you will be hammer banned..

That the truth is absolute is not important. The important bit is that the truth is divined by a being which cannot err. In this system you can have a true definition of reality.

In the modern view where a truth is empirically determined it makes no sense to have a correct definition.

>But when someone says "logic hasn't been proven", they really mean "this particular formal system has not been verified to represent an accurate model of the universe"

Irrelevant. Language models the universe. Logic models language. When a model is incorrect it is not because logic is incorrect, but instead that our language has made incorrect assumptions.

language is to physics as logic is to mathematics

I don't agree with you. To define is to limit and words without definition are useless in discourse. For exist to be meaningful it must be exclusionary. Past usages of "exists" imposed limits on its usage.

The scientific usage is not better than the others if we are to judge within the scientific system. It can't be.

Who the fuck has to define what a fucking apple is every time they are debating.. Your argument is retarded philosophical ejaculation go masturbate on your mother and shoot yourself in the phace for being so retarded..

>retarded philosophical[...]
this is exactly why nobody takes you guys seriously

you shit all over the traditions and hard work it took for to enjoy the "logic" and "definitions" you take for granted and think you don't need to know anything about.

it's just like the hippie scumbags spitting on the people who fought for their freedoms in Vietnam.

You butthurt and brainwashed atheists that hang-out on /sci/ just can't handle the real world problems which modern day mathematicians, scientists, theologians and philosopher's alike have to solve for humans to improve their quality of life.

>> No.2859762

you're right I shit on your traditions.. You follow someone blindly, for no reason with no proof.. I put my penis in your mother marry, fuck her till her brains pop out then she cums out Jesus all over the floor.. Who I then throw against the wall until he stops moving, Chop off his head and use it as my totem pole.. Yea I do much more than shit on your inane religious beliefs, I curb stomp them for the lolz

All that holds so long as the philosophical argument is valid and useful, rather than the long winded equivalent of a "no u", on top of being incorrect.

We made a+b=b+a the same way me made "Sun" mean "That big ball of fire that sits in the sky". From there, we derived more complex equations. As for God, someone just came and said, "There's this dude, and he decides everything. Don't fuck anything up.". And people don't like the fact that they aren't in any kind of control.

OP here.

Successful troll is successful.

This is a worthy debate issue, though. But wow, this thread fired up beyond my wildest dreams.

>> No.2860388

So when you can no longer argue about the evidence for god, you revert to saying that "evidence and logic are unprovable, therefore God exists". Oh how low you theists have stooped..

>> No.2860399

>>2859762
no you shit own your own traditions of logic and you follow yourself, moreover your own logic, blindly

I walked away from this thread knowing you weren't going to provide a decent argument and I was right, here you are giving me some pee-wee herman routine.

What gives you the idea that those judeo-christian icons have any sentimental value to me? Wait you probably don't care because you're going to assume everything you say is right anyways because you don't need to define or prove anything.

I'll checkup on you tomorrow if this thread is still here.
