Hi @Anjkara thanks for your reply and best wishes for our voyage, really appreciated ;-)

Flews is really worth reading for two reasons:

He is the basis of a significant amount of Atheist philosophy

And the sting in the tale

Following an accepted rationale for logical thinking he came to the conclusion there must be a ‘God’, in that there must be an intelligent force behind the universe

There are a myriad of reasons for this and you should read his book, it’s not expensive, very well written and of course most of it is about the arguments for Modern Atheism, which he developed

There is an industry behind the Atheist polemic curently. It centres on using the wrong tools to discuss things, then like smoke and mirrors, it pulls the rabbit out of the hat and says ‘look at that’

His book can be found via this link below, Prof Flews never became religious
( in my view there are valid discussions to be had regarding what humankind has done with religion, as I think you know- but what humankind has done when compared to the important question - Is there a God, whilst potentially disgusting, is actually irrelevant. You deny something, which is your right, which as an agnostic I came face to face with and cannot deny. Thus your denial is as irrelevant to me as my faith is to you, it makes no difference. If you choose to deny anything I know for certain is there then that’s simply your choice, the reasons don’t really matter, just your choice)

I’ll post something for fun for us to discuss if you have time, look out for the link ;-)
