I submit what would be unnatural in a computer is the software

Why are you ducking the obvious next question?

You've discovered an awesome all knowing God. Surely an awesome all knowing God couldn't just exist naturally, in nature. Something even more awesome and even more all knowing must have created this awesome all knowing God you've discovered. How could it be any other way? Your logic demands it. How do you account for this, besides ignoring it, i mean?

You certainly have no logic or "scientific facts" to prove that God had nothing to do with us being here.

And the ignorant dishonesty continues.

I've never claimed science shows God doesn't exist. In fact i've specifically said science and religion are separate realms.

You should admit there are no scientific reasons to believe in God, that belief is a leap of faith. Why can't you do that?

No one can prove a negative. No one has to. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim. Why not just concede your belief is a leap of faith. Why even have this conversation?

I can't prove the tooth fairy doesn't exist. Does that mean i should believe it does? Your arguments are getting sillier and less coherent by the post.

As is unbelief in God.

Well i'll say this much for you, you're on a roll. Unbelief is not a leap of faith. It's the absence of making such a leap.

Consider alien abductions. Millions of people believe they're real, many claim personal experience claiming to have been abducted themselves.

I don't believe it. I can't prove it's not true. But i don't have to. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim not me. And no believer or abductee has ever presented scientifically compelling evidence for their claims.

See how it works?

"You live in a world where it's common knowledge that computers are made by humans. I would ask you to set aside that knowledge for a moment and ask yourself without that knowledge how would you know a computer wasn't merely a product of nature only? "

You can't differentiate between an artifact and something natural????? You're kidding, right???
