My Empirical Arguments for God
I am really sick of atheists saying "you don't have any empirical evidence for god. So I am doing three things about this:
I am issuing this reminder that I have many empirical or empirically based arguments.
What needs to be understood is the rational decision making paradigm. Once you understand that you can understand that, which I will try to summarize, in a future post but I have talked about it a lot here. Once you understand that you will see that I have actually proven the existence of God many times.
In a nut shell the decision making paradigm is in two parts:
(a) rational warrant for belief
(b) co-determinate
we do not need to prove empirically that God exists. Once we prove that God is rationally warranted and that the co-determinate is empirical we have come close as we need come for rational discourse.
Empirical arguments:
