The Conflict Between Atheists and Theists: The Treatment of Unprovable, Unknowable Existence
This paper examines the conflict between atheists and theists through the lens of unprovable, unknowable existence. The establishment of causality requires the existence of the unknowable. Furthermore, this existence can be regarded as a cause and a supernatural being, which aligns with the concept that many theists define as God. Atheists often criticize the belief in a personal God; however, because it is unprovable, that God cannot be denied either. While theists can maintain a conscious blind faith, atheists are often unconscious of their own blind faith. Ultimately, denying another person's God, as long as no harm is inflicted, becomes an irrational action that wounds that person's dignity.
