The atheists believe that their five senses can perceive all that there is to perceive...another way of saying "if I cannot perceive it, it cannot exist."

Nonsense. I've never "perceived" the core of Pluto but that doesn't mean I don't believe it exists.

"Nonsense. I've never "perceived" the core of Pluto but that doesn't mean I don't believe it exists."

You could concieveably dig to the core of a planet and use other tests to prove it's existance.

The notion of God isn't subject to empirical verification by it's very nature.

As for the "if I cannot perceive it, it cannot exist" quote.... it's a misinterpetation of the atheist position. The real position is: "if I cannot perceive it WHY should I recognize it exists?"
