Your exclamation marks are hilarious.  :lol:

It's just that I "heard" something about you and I'm just wondering if it's true.

QuoteRicardo has been around for a number of years now, using various names and avatars. He can still be seen in a few other forums under the name of Ricardo and using the same avatar he used here.

I'm sure there are many, ricards, scattered throughout the forums, I was just wondering about Ricardo. "The one who can still be seen in a few other forums under the name of Ricardo and using the same avatar he used here."

"Am I all right ?"
Yes, thank you for asking.

 the atheists' argument that there is a lack of empirical evidence for the existence of god can be refuted by the rationalism argument that everything that exists has an intelligible cause, even if that cause cannot be demonstrated empirically, such as the cause of origin. of the universe. :chin:

Not 'we' or 'our' or 'the atheist' but 'the atheists'. Take care with your terminology or you'll start looking like a theist troll.

i believe the rationalism argument is refuted by the problem of induction.

all swans are white, until we see a black one.

what is the argument that demonstrates a cause is a requirement for existence?
