I don’t see that as a problem. If there are numerous mutually exclusive arguments for the same broad conclusion, then feel free to point that out and maybe try to link to one or more of them. It just makes no sense whatsoever that a believer in God would just say “I could never possibly even begin to present an argument because there are so many ways to do so and so many different rebuttals people might make.”
- mitthrowaway2 4y agoIt seems to me more like a request for an argument of such strength that, if I can find a weakness in it, I can be confident in the falseness of the conclusion without doing any further research to see if that weakness has been buttressed elsewhere in the literature. It seems like it would therefore need to be a living document, actively maintained and updated, sort of like the IPCC reports. And probably at least 100 pages long. In which case, that's basically the website Less Wrong? But most people want something condensed, in exactly the way that addresses their specific doubts without any of the other stuff they don't care about.
