Message: <blockquote data-quote="skeptic.freethinker1" data-source="post: 147810" data-attributes="member: 13087">Harry Haller Ji,I understand that you have faith and you truly believe existence of God to be an absolute fact.The issue is that the reasoning you put forward can also be applied to existence of many other things like unicorns and Santa Claus if faith is the only criteria. For example someone can say "If you look deep within yourself, you will find Santa Claus,. You will know it  is Santa Claus as deep within you there is a pool of light and information, and  it is never wrong, now for me this is absolute fact, not rhetoric"I just took your comments and replaced the word God with Santa Claus. The person putting forward the above reasoning would also have faith in the existence in Santa Claus but that wouldn't really give any credibility to his claims. Then why do we have a different set of rules to judge the claims that God's existence is a fact whereas Santa Claus is just make believe!</blockquote>
