I try to use abductive reasoning to make the case for God.
This can be done by taking all of the spiritual experiences you have heard from believers, and drawing a plausible case from it.
The alternative argument is to say that they all lied, or were crazy.
Think science doesn't use abductive reasoning? Think again:
And for those who say abductive reasoning isn't quite strong enough... it's the process at which jurors seem to typically decide a case in court.
Granted, science may be used in the courtroom in the form of for example, DNA. But the jury doesn't necessarily have intimate knowledge of it, just what they are told. Abductive reasoning decides court cases.
And my theories also seem to be compatible with the approach to Critical Thinking... aren't they?
So let's hear the thought processes to say everyone who has a spiritual experience, doesn't know what they are talking about.
