If solving the partial differential God equation told me that there was a 40% chance that God would kill all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, and a 35% chance He would create a plague of locusts, and a 25% chance He would part the Red Sea and one of those things actually happened then I would become a theist, provided of course that future solutions of the God Equation produced a similar pattern of successful predictions. >>> You confirm again and again that atheists defends the uniqueness of the >>> God notion: >>> >> >> >> That is correct.
