I just recently made a post for theists and non-theists alike, here::
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ap3NxQSfefqP21zP2GPsqZbsy6IX?qid=20070403113427AAan7R9
And, the most used phrase by the atheists, which they all claim is "logic," was:: "You can't prove a negative."
Here is the issue I have with that phrase...
This "negative proof" claim, as many of you atheists claim as your logical "proof", has occured in the debate of the existence of supernatural phenomena. (i.e. "A supernatural force does not exist, because there is no proof that it does exist.")
The problem with this supposed object of logic is that its opposite can also logically be claimed! (i.e. "A supernatural force must exist, because there is no proof that it does not exist")
You see, as I said in my last question, theists and atheists are really no different! Each can logically spout the inverse of the other's claims!
