Waterboarded for being an obnoxious take in a chain of obnoxious takes but just wanted to say A. the existence of supernatural powers is a position many naturally take without subscribing to non-existence first, and B. any assumption about the existence or non-existence of powers beyond our universe, made from within our universe, is illogical. Our position is too limited to definitively rule out any theism.

+ From the wiki on Russell’s Teapot:

#another good counter argument from Brian Garvey #says the disgreement over atheism isn’t about one thing (like the existence of a teapot)#but of the reason our universe exists the way it is #the atheist isn’t just denying the theists claim but asserting their own: that there is another or no reason for the universe
