unhealthytruthseeker said:There are many negatives which can be proven. I can prove that there are no two integers a and b such that a/b is the square root of two, for example.
It is possible to prove a negative. The claim that you cannot prove a negative is a myth propagated by hardcore empiricists.
unhealthytruthseeker said:While I acknowledge that you technically cannot absolutely, totally disprove god, I also recognize that one cannot absolutely, totally prove ANYTHING outside of so-called "analytic" truths like mathematics and formal logic.
I'm not sure if this is consistent. If God possesses such characterists that come into conflict, via analytic reason a priori you could prove that God cannot exist by showing that the notion of God violates the fundamental laws of logic, like any matter in mathematics and formal logic. The reason why one cannot begin to demonstrate logically the nonexistence of God is because theists are unable to define it, which only undermines their faith. In principle, it is possible to prove that God does not exist, but there are propositions that should be substantiated first.
