God of the Gaps (well then, how did...")

See my thumb?

Yes. Yes I do.

I don't believe nature likes "fully in balance" any more than it likes either extreme void or pure matter. I picture a long dying universe with black holes quickly vacuuming up all the remaining matter and space while locally creating an abundance of dielectric potential. Then bam! The cycle restarts.

How do you explain all of the radiation in the universe? Where did it come from in your example?

This is probably THEE #1 rationale for those arguing for a god on msg boards.
"Well then, did all this stuff just appear?".. "how did ___ if not god?"
And we can see several Fallacious OPs currently employing this boner.

If we can't explain it/explain it Yet, it must be 'god.'
The same Bogus/Failed 'logic' used for creating Fire, Lightning, Sun, Fertility, and Ten thousand other 'gods.'

God of the gaps

(or a divine fallacy) is logical fallacy that occurs when Goddidit (or a variant) is invoked to explain some natural phenomena that science cannot (at the time of the argument). This concept is similar to what systems theorists refer to as an "explanatory principle." "God of the gaps" is a bad argument not only on logical grounds, but on empirical grounds: there is a long history of "gaps" being filled and the gap for God thus getting smaller and smaller, suggesting "we don't know Yet" as an alternative that works Better in practice; naturalistic explanations for still-mysterious phenomena are always possible, especially in the future where more information may be uncovered.[1]

The God of the Gaps is a didit Fallacy and an ad hoc Fallacy, as well as an Argument from Incredulity or an Argument from Ignorance, and is thus an informal fallacy...


2. Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of...pe_of_argument

The term God-of-the-gaps fallacy can refer to a position that assumes an act of God as the explanation for an unknown phenomenon, which is a variant of an argument from ignorance fallacy.[13][14] Such an argument is sometimes reduced to the following form:

*There is a gap in understanding of some aspect of the natural world.
*Therefore the cause must be supernatural.

One example of such an argument, which uses God as an explanation of one of the current gaps in biological science, is as follows: "Because current science can't figure out exactly how life started, it must be God who caused life to start." Critics of intelligent design creationism, for example, have accused proponents of using this basic type of argument.[15]

God-of-the-gaps arguments have been Discouraged by some theologians who assert that such arguments tend to relegate God to the Leftovers of science: as scientific knowledge Increases, the dominion of God Decreases...[4][5][16][17]

There is NO proof, or even evidence for god/s, just fallacious god-of-the-gaps inferences.

The explain it 'Nobrain.' Explain how something came from nothing. I said you don't have to call it God but you totally ignored that in order to insult me. You've been hanging out here cowardly giving my posts a thumbs down, now you finally post something and it's nothing but bullshit. You can't seem to have an honest discussion and are here to be a troll.

I don't agree with Scruffy but at least he is willing to divulge his knowledge on the subject. You apparently are devoid of any knowledge whatsoever.

Great!~
Since I'm the one posting facts (and OP Factual Blockbusters) while you post 3-5 word with Nothing but empty protestation.
You're a Demented POS who can't string together 2 sentences, much less a paragraph.

... Where did the very first living cell come from? So far with all your lengthy posts you still have no answer.

That's Correct!
And Neither do you!
And Darwin (THE OP TOPIC) only deals the Evidence for life's subsequent evolution, NOT Abiogenesis.

And does not logically Justify Your Constant/Fallacious God-of-the-Gaps Fallacy inference.

"We don't know/Know Yet" is the most rational answer.
No need to create a new Fire, Lightening, or Fertility god for what we don't know/know yet.

Science has not yet done the creating life though women create it.
Tell me of any nobel prize winner who demonstrated the science of creating life?

"Damn it's so dark," whined God.
"Can't see shit here. Let there be Light."
Dawn soon appeared with a huge Crack.
God grew tremendously horny.
He began inserting his massive, throbbing member.
"Wait," cried Dawn. "Gods fuck?
"Next you'll claim to have XY chromosomes."
To be continued..

It is also known as an appeal to ignorance fallacy.

That there is no objective, documented evidence that explains a scientific inquiry, doesn’t mean ‘god’ is the ‘answer.’

You're liberal so I guess you're atheists too. That's why you're wrong on both religion AND politics. Just don't claim to be "compassionate" if you think babies should be killed in the womb.

Chonesy is a full blown fascist. Far from liberal.
