You can't disprove the existence an invisible being, but what will happen if you discredit the story-logic of that same being?

One principle of physics is that the universe is so vast, that any odds of anything in the universe is incredibly in its favor. For example: if the odds of there being a race of pineapple people in some distant galaxy are 1 to 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000... the universe is so vast and has so many opportunities to have that race of pineapple people that the odds are overwhelmingly in favor of this strange race. So technically, you can't disprove something like God. Another well known principle is that errors in most things in the world are human, and who supposedly wrote the bible? (I think gods deciples or something, dont be mad if i'm horribly wrong.) But the people who wrote the bible were incredibly redundant. If there was a mistake that could possibly be proven then they wrote an escape clause right beneath it. We proved it with the world being circular, the earth not being the center of the universe, and most importantly with evolution. In response to evolution there even now are some people (not going to judge) that believe creationism is still behind it. With all of these scientific discoveries, the Vatican even has its own scientist to catch it up with the times. The truth is, if your looking for dis-proval, think of this one question: can you name one extremely intelligent and influential mind in the past 100 years that was deeply religious? I think those with that level of intelligence cant wrap their mind around the idea of god. Just my 2 cents.

Paradoxically, disproving the story-logic only has validity if you have first established a causal link between the story and the entity - which proves the existence of the entity you were trying to disprove. Your method is only legitimate if you establish the relationship between the story and the being - and if you do that, you've established the being.

Back to the drawing board

You should be able to demonstrate that the existence of God is a logical impossibility. But discrediting the story-logic doesn't reveal anything at all about the existence of God. All it does is reveal contradictions in the story logic.

Then, if your disproof is acknowledged, the story adapts slightly to work around its previous erroneous claim.

Take the sun revolving around the Earth as an example. Four hundred years ago, that was common "knowledge" endorsed by the Church and supported by the standard assortment of Biblical quotes. Now, all of those quotes have been "re-interpreted," and modern Churches no longer claim that the sun revolves around the Earth, but the basic story lives on with that minor adaptation.

Good luck!

People have been trying to discredt the Bible for CENTURIES, & NO OTHER BOOK HAS EVER OUTSOLD IT!

What Scripture says about itself is never truer than here:

Isaiah 40:8 (New International Version)

8 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God stands forever."

A part of knowing God is also to understand Him and His word. He promised that those who did not know Him would not understand His word. So those who attempt to disprove His story - logic, as you say it, are going to remain frustrated, because they do not have the Spirit of God teaching them.

So if you want to disprove His story - go right ahead. Many have tried and failed.

Good question.

That's easy.

If by dealing with the 5 or 6 most important inner workings of things in the order of their importance to its normative function
(or in a man-made case to building it to work right), and you understand it, use or build it, and it works categorically and specifically just the way your thesis said it should--then there's no outside force, no invisible interfering (power deity) involved at all. Who ever heard of an impotent deity principle?

That's why we must have reality space-time based category-based definitions, liberty and government--not
pseudo-theocratic pretensions, and god-playing tyrannical public-interest insanity.

You are preaching the Devil's lies and working for him if you are talking about God.

Why choose Hell?

The Greatest Love Song
Do You Know Jesus
By Mike McCracken

(chorus)
Do you know Jesus?
And how He loves us
How He died just to save us
Just because, He loves us

Judas betrayed Him
Who once was His friend
They beat, flogged and scourged Him
To where He didn’t look human

A crown of thorns on His head
Just another place where He bled
Humiliated in every way
Why, they even tore His clothes away

And there wasn’t any time loss
To where, they made Him carry the cross
To drive nails through His hands
He’s more than just a man

And Jesus still loved them
After all they did to Him
He did this for us too
When He said, “Father forgive them,
for they know not what they do.”

Jesus said that there is no greater love that a man can give than that he lay down his life for another. Jesus did this for all those who believe. I wrote this out of the Bible so everyone will know how great God’s love is.

This is like the glass half full/half empty thing. You can't prove God exists or prove that he doesn't exist. Just do whatever you want to do and don't worry about it.

logic is very questionable when talking about a Being that has no rules or boundries in which It much follow.
