No, it isn't unfair. The problem comes when you idolize people as ultimate good, or a perfect example of a human being. People can do great things, yet be capable of extremely cruel acts. They should be lauded for those great things and condemned for their cruelty as well. Doesn't make them pure good or pure evil.

It's about nuance.

TopicC/D: Lawyers who KNOWINGLY defend guilty clients should be punished too.
_Near_
12/13/18 7:36:42 PM

There is no "100% guilty. There's a litany of different charges that people can be indicted with and various defenses to all of them. Furthermore, there's a process that law enforcement must abide by to successfully apprehend a suspect in order to not violate their rights. The defense attorney assesses all of these.

A defense lawyer's job isn't to judge guilt or innocence, that's the job of the jury. A defense lawyer is there to make sure that their client gets the best representation, whether they have done something wrong or not. And just because they do something wrong, it doesn't mean that they are guilty of the crime that they are being charged with. A defense lawyer makes this distinction.

Sending someone to prison or death row is a very harsh punishment and thus, it would be unfair to have the full weight of the government come down on the individual without someone there to make sure that the prosecution meets their burden of proof. A defense lawyer ensures this.

Dragonblade01 posted...

The more specific a god is, the more likely it is to be falsifiable, perhaps. But general god claims aren't any more believable, because they're still fundamentally unbelievable. The claim that something exists needs to be properly demonstrated before it's reasonable to believe. No matter how general you make the god claim, it doesn't increase how likely it is to exist, because there's still no demonstration that it exists or even a reason to believe that such a thing could exist.


And indeed, that's why god can only safely exist in the unknown and unknowable. Things only become likely or unlikely to exist when we have knowledge to make that assessment. Otherwise, we're speculating out of our depth and the question of something being "likely or unlikely" stops being beholden to any facts and reason.

Things that happened before the universe started, before time started (which is stupid to even say), and in the primordial moments of reality are unknown and likely unknowable. We look a reality through the laws of the universe, but now we're talking about a moment when those laws weren't written yet, so in that space, god can exist without much impunity.

Dragonblade01 posted...
But that doesn't actually get us anywhere, because in doing so you've chosen to give up the significance of the word in favor of keeping the label.


The significance of the word is subjective and ultimately, unimportant to the argument. And "getting anywhere" isn't the point either. What we're discussing is whether some gods are more likely to exist than others. Since we have a lack of knowledge of this primordial time (disallowing us from proving the god "unlikely"), and we attribute few specific claims attributed to the deistic deity, the "prime mover" god is the most believable.

the probability of at least one intelligent and advanced alien species coming into noticeable existence would have been FAR greater already.


And considering the size, span, age and nature of the universe, the species probably did exist, exists now, or will exist in the future.

If a species with similar intelligence to current-day humans exists even outside of our galaxy (which is a very minuscule part of the universe), we would have no real way of knowing.

Replacing a specific unproven claim with a broader, more general unproven claim does not necessarily make it more plausible.


I think it does. The more specific a god gets, the less likely it is to exist, because it's more obviously man-made.

If one believes that Helios rides a chariot along the sky to make the sun rise, that's obviously untrue and can be proven to be so.

If someone else believes that YHWH, a male god, personally speaks to humans, gets involved in worldly affairs, and can physically manifest in the world but is essentially unseen and unknowable, that's more believable than Helios, but still pretty unbelievable.

However, if someone thinks that an unseen, prenatural force jump-started the universe and then left the universe - never to interact with it again, that's the most believable version of god.

The less specific claims and characteristics a god has, the more likely it is to exist.
