I.E., I am arguing that 2 + 2 does equal 4, and that is Rationally Observable by the Atheist;

You appear to be arguing that 2 + 2 must equal 4, because no other Solution will obtain any sort of Empirical Utility.

Unless I mis-read you.

Just a fascinating discussion, no critique intended. (yet... grin)

best, OP

I've just picked this thread up again, and was trying to asnwer some loose-end replies I had out there. I have skimmed some of what you've posted but need to examine them more in depth to see how our arguments might differ. You are certainly much more lucid than I.

In the meantime, if you would care to do so, consider the omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent aspects of a supernatural being. I consider the latter two to be special conditions of the first. Have you ever given it any thought? It ties in, at least tangentially, to what I'm attempting to argue.
