So Sophie could hide his ugly mug under a burka and pretend to be a woman with zero effort. Also, Sophie would get to say tons of crazy stuff and threaten to behead and blow up people

That also is an unfalsifiable statement. AKA a religious conviction or belief.

I never put forth that idea. As of yet, there is no evidence one way or the other about any deity--their existence or lack thereof. Having a belief without evidence is no different than being religious.
I further claim there will never be evidence one way or the other. But this is an entirely separate claim that need not hold for the above to be true.

I think outrageous claims require outrageous proof and maybe one day I will see such outrageous proof. Until then, I cannot believe in a deity

Some amount of intuition is required to deem something outrageous.
How is it you have more intuition about what could or could not happen outside the realm of the experience, time, and space, than about the weather in some unknown location on earth?
> Also it's a claim I could easily check for truth
Not if you don't know where I live. Which is the premise here.

Why would you test something you don't believe in? Isn't the test, life, and God hasn't show his face, so that's the proof? Like what kind of proof do you need and what kind of test?

I guess I believe it, I don't have any reason to disbelieve you, and rain isn't super improbable. But I don't need to believe you, I just choose to act in the framework that people aren't constantly lying to me until I experience the contrary, or find out I have been incorrect.

Okay. Fine. Now let's say instead we're talking about a day 2000 or so years ago. But yet we have contradictory accounts whether or not it rained on that particular day.
> But I don't need to believe you, I just choose to act in the framework that people aren't constantly lying to me until I experience the contrary, or find out I have been incorrect.
Irrelevant. We're not talking about what you need to believe or not believe, but rather how you come to hold your beliefs (or lack thereof).

Are you someone provably educated on the topic or just some random on the internet and I literally know nothing about you?
Again, I'd probably basically believe you because I don't need to disbelieve you. I came to this conclusion by not having a connection to the weather on a day 2000 or so years ago

But I started asking about why you would need to prove something you don't believe in, and then you wanted to know how I came to my beliefs, and when I told you I simply didn't care, you suggested I kill myself. So does this prove or disprove God, you've gotten me to care if even just a little bit.

You're so literal minded and/or autistic that it's not even worth having a discussion with you. I tried, but I give up. If you can't already see what I've been trying to say, there's no hope.

ITT we had a discussion, you conceded, and that was it. You then continued to follow me here, ITT, and have attempted to rekindle an argument for no apparent reason. Why?

I mean if just a few posts before telling me to kill myself is trying, I hope you do more than just try to do anything else in your life because that was pathetic.

I'm counting meth as a mental illness all its own, there may have been issues prior to meth that are now being excentuated by meth as well.

Catherine's posts are absolutely fascinating to me. They're uncanny valley, the thought process is just a little bit off from a normal human's. An alien that had spent some time on Earth would absolutely think like this.

you know the trope with the fat nasty sheikh who has many women but mistakes some ugly foreign guy for the most beautiful woman. i wonder if Catherine saw something like that and was just like damn that's the stuff

I suppose that's right, in a sense. There are certain very literal prescriptions about what "God" or gods would look or act like that could be proven or disproven.
But there are just as many that are not. Those are what I'm talking about.
