Weak Atheism is Philosophically Superior to Strong Atheism

. . . ----> L O G I C A L L Y - G O D - C A N ' T - E X I S T <---- Important note: The monotheistic God's necessary attributes are the four Omnis of omnipresence, omnipotence, omniscience, and omnibenevolence. [1] P1: My opponent asserts that the traditional God is not required to be transcendent. However, the traditional God created the world and because of this, he is necessarily transcendent. God created time and space so he transcends time and space. He exists outside of creation. And even despite this fact, it is the traditional belief that God is transcendent. P2: She asserts that omnipresence isn't required, but this sounds like a copout. The God that is most widely believed, we all know is the four "Omni's" and omnipresence is one of them. She also brings up that the Bible only refers to God watching over the people of this planet and not necessarily present everywhere in the Universe. This is outright false and is not supported by Biblical scripture. In fact, the exact opposite is true as seen here: "God is everywhere. We cannot escape His presence." (Ps. 139:7-12) "God fills the heaven and earth." (Jer. 23:23-24) So, this automatically refutes her assertion. It is made clear that God is present everywhere in the Universe. P3-5: My opponent asks why transcendence and omnipresence are mutually exclusive. The answer is because transcendence means that a being can't be present anywhere in space (as asserted in P3). Transcendence is "the concept of being entirely above the created Universe" [2] and transcends space and time. If he's above space and time and can't exist anywhere in space, he can't be simultaneously everywhere in space. Either he's everywhere or he transcends space and time. Therefore, this God has contradictory qualities and can't exist. ----> S C I E N T I F I C A L L Y - G O D - C A N ' T - E X I S T <---- P1: My opponent seems to use another copout definition bending of God. The traditional monotheist God that is the most widely believed is the four Omnis as clarified earlier. Also, the Bible confirms explicitly that God does indeed observe all things at once. "There is no creature hidden from God's sight. ALL THINGS ARE NAKED AND OPENED TO HIS SIGHT." (Heb. 4:13) P2-4: Pro confuses the observer effect with Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle which is a common mistake. [3] The principle merely involves the precision we may measure the position and momentum of a particle. It's not the actual observer effect itself, but it is directly related. Nothing she said refutes that observation collapses quantum superpositions. In fact, in quantum mechanics, it is experimentally true that observation does collapse superposition. "If the outcome of an event has not been observed, it exists in a state of 'superposition', which is akin to being in all possible states at once." [4] Quantum physicist, Dr. Michio Kaku has stated that "At present, every experiment has verified the [observation effect]." (Hyperspace, pg. 261) This scientific argument has not been refuted. It has been affirmed that God is observing everything, it is affirmed that observation collapses quantum superpositions, and it is true that not all superpositions are collapsed. Therefore, God's all-encompassing observation has not collapsed all superpositions, and thus does not exist. ----> P H I L O S O P H I C A L - R E A S O N S <---- My opponent asserts that God need not be infinite, yet it is commonly believed by most that God is infinite (which is also implied by his omnipresence.) I brought up that the Universe can't be infinite while God is separate and simultaneously infinite as well. Being infinite means being "unlimited or unmeasurable in extent of space; unbounded or unlimited; boundless; endless." [5] Two separate things cannot both possess these qualities. In order for two things to be separate, they can't overlap or be one with each other. Only one thing can be infinite. ----> C O N C L U S I O N <---- My logical and scientific arguments still stand and I can still rightfully assert that I know God does not exist.
