the practical difficulty argument is used frequently with people claiming that god exists god is shown to exist because god is clearly in the bible however as technology and satellites push our knowledge of the universe outward we haven't verified god's existence the counterargument god is outside of the reach of current technology unfortunately if the practical difficulty argument is valid i could make the claim that there is a book on pluto's surface in alienspeak saying that i am the king of sheba this won't go very far we need other sources to back this up
