I spent seven hours working on a three page philosophy paper about the existence of God only to discover that every argument I came up with against the one presented was already answered somewhere in teh dudes book. In essence, for the moment at least, I'm actually without a good response to an argument that claims God doesn't exist. This is not the only argument that says God doesn't exist that I have no response to as yet, but it might be the most compelling and its certainly one I had never heard of before yesterday.
This is probably why I like philosophy so much though, not only do we talk about things that matter, as opposed to proving the lim 1/x = 0, we talk about things that actually have a real and important impact on my life. That, and the more I learn about what other people think, the more I learn about what I think.
To be clear, there is a good reason to doubt this argument, I say God exists so there must be a reason, now my puny brain just has to find it. No to go turn it in! Its a good paper, I sense another A coming on.
