Introduction
Atheistic Critiques
–
Common critiques of theistic beliefs.
God of the Gaps (If You Can’t Explain it, God did it!)
Every argument for the existence of God is actually a Gaps argument. It is literally the single oldest argument in the history of human discourse. It is also the most failed one.
Deistic Substitution Argument/Fallacy
The three-card Monte of theism, this gaps argument is the most common fallacy you've never heard of, and a cornerstone of most "theistic" arguments.
Prime Mover / First Cause Arguments
This subset of Gaps arguments suggest that there must be some life, some higher power, that started it all.
Revelation Doesn’t Prove God
“Miracles” Do Not Prove God
Pascal’s Wager
It's still around, it's the only non-gaps argument on our list. But since it's not actually an argument for the existence of God...
Strength of Faith is not Evidence/Proof
Theism is not Humble, it’s Narcissistic.
