"God Exists ?" A talk in logic



<center>
<h3>Is There God ?</h3>
<h4>A talk between an A. Atheist/Agnostic B. Betul C. Christian</h4> 
</center>

<pre>
A. Can you logically prove that god exists ?

B. Yes. Proof in any system requires Axioms. For example in
Euclidean Geometry 5 axioms are taken to be true bu their
virtue. Proofs for other theorems are based on these. In a
system, god's existance can be taken as an axiom and used to
build an explaination for the universe or can be proved using
appropriate axioms.

A. In the same way, I can also prove that there is no god.

B. In the same way, I can prove that you do not exist. In fact,
did you know that you are just a dynasaur's dream ? But you say
you exist. Why do you say so ? How do you know you exist ?
Cotigo ergo sum ?

A. Because I know I exist. I feel myself with my senses.

B. But it could be a "maya", an illusion.

A. It could be. but I believe it is not.

B. Similarily people know, feel and believe god to exist.

A. But you could not prove god's existance.

B. I just "proved" that a challenge such as prove god exists
is illogical.

A. But that leaves us where we were. I am still not convinced
god exists.
