Can you prove a negative? 🤔 YES! 🤯You just NEED to KNOW how! 🤓

Can you prove a negative? 🤔 YES! 🤯You just NEED to KNOW how! 🤓

“You can’t prove a negative” is such a common phrase among atheists these days and it’s ridiculous!

Do You really think you can’t prove a negative or non-existence?

Well, you’re mistaken – check out this post to find out how!

Bad Atheist Arguments
Misunderstanding The Null Hypothesis and Knowledge.

Misunderstanding The Null Hypothesis and Knowledge.

The null hypothesis is used in science, and we atheists tend to have a lot of respect for science, the scientific method, scientific and empirical evidence. We think of ourselves as logical and rational people. We feel we know a lot about the topics we discuss, especially when it comes to science. In conversations with…

I often respond to…

How good is your evidence for god?

How good is your evidence for god?

This post is set to examine the average theistic presentation of evidence, whether it is strong, weak, convincing, or even really evidence at all. We (atheists) often tell theists their ‘evidence’ is ‘not evidence’, and this is often incorrect. Evidence is indicative rather than completely conclusive (even if we do make conclusions off of evidence),…
