Dawkins says no evidence for God?

[00:00:00]What are the five best reasons why there is no god? What are the five reasons why there are no fairies? The The onus is not upon an atheist to say why there is not something. The onus is on a theist to say why there is.

[00:00:12]Having said that, [music] it is a very interesting question because a universe with a god would be a very different kind of universe than one without. So, the most important reason is there simply are no reasons for the existence of a god.

[00:00:26]>> Dawkins might have been a great science communicator, but on the god question and philosophy, he repeats serious blunders that make thoughtful atheists cringe. Believing in god is nothing like believing in fairies. Why? Because god's existence, quite apart from personal religious experiences, is argued by Christian theologians and philosophers on the basis of dozens of arguments.

[00:00:47]Arguments based upon publicly available evidences and then rational inferences.

[00:00:52]For instance, god is the best explanation for why there is something rather than nothing, grounding existence itself. Or as a necessary being and first cause and cosmic architect, god is the best explanation for the origins and fine-tuning of this contingent physical universe. And god is the best explanation for eternal truths like the laws of logic and mathematics, flowing from an eternal mind. And god is the best explanation for the mysterious reality of consciousness, a psychophysical harmony, and human rationality. God is the best explanation for grounding morality. So, that beyond the changing tides of human culture and power plays of politics, somethings really are good and others evil. And god is the best explanation for human spiritual desires, ones left satisfied by the material world. And god is the best explanation for religious history, especially in the prophetic typology of the Bible, interlocking the Christian story, and credible historical miracle claims like Jesus' resurrection from the dead in history. Now, not all of these arguments carry the same weight or are impervious to skeptical critique. And Christians still have to grapple with counter evidences like the problems of evil and suffering or divine hiddenness, something the Bible takes very seriously. But God's existence and the truth of the Christian story can be credibly argued from nearly [music] every feature of our existence, leading to a kind of strong cumulative argument from the sheer number of arguments. So when it comes to trying to grapple honestly with the evidence, I think in this case, Christians are not the ones that are off with the fairies.
