Here's a thought: Does asking for proof beg the question that only a naturalistic worldview can answer? If so, is that unreasonable? If not, can we assume that naturalism is the de facto assumption except when it isnt?
Whether you believe in a supernatural world, believe in exceptional metaphysics, or just want to tell me that I'm wrong... Give us a call at 412- SKEPGEN (412-753-7436)  OR tiny.cc/skepgen to call online!

Michael suffered as the target of a false allegation and he’s struggling with the lack of accountability for people who acted maliciously toward him while people who believe in god can say “they’ll get what’s coming to them” and be okay with it.By the way, here’s that Madea clip Eric was talking about!-https://youtu.be/CTPzXwNVc9g?si=0fBp2hQwt5Isek8Y

Evan wants to talk about two Discworld characters who are witches, one of whom chooses to be good and one of whom chooses to be evil, and how these characters impacted his faith and his family. He goes on to talk about how atheists saying “I don’t believe god exists” forces people to challenge their own self worth.
