Your Questions About Dog’s Life Vest

Richard asks…

I don’t fully agree with atheists or theists. Here’s are my qualms and questions to both of you?

Atheists, I can agree with those of you that say that based on current knowledge and evidence, we can’t say there is a God, and that you won’t believe in one until there is evidence. I do, however, have a problem with those of you that say with complete certainty that there is no higher being, and that there is no doubt whatsoever? Why? Think of it this way:

A dog has limited intelligence. Based on what it can perceive, based on what it can retain and observe based on it’s limited environment, and based on said limited intelligence, a dog can with complete certainty think that the yard it lives in is the entire world, or that the humans it has seen are the only humans in the entire world, or that it will live forever. We know these things to be false, because we have higher intelligence, and know of things that are far beyond a dog’s comprehension and intelligence.

In the same way, what makes you think that we as humans, are so knowledgeable? We have not even explored most of our own galaxy in the immeasurable universe; in that sense we are like the dog, chained in a yard, with a limited outlook on the grand picture. So, how can we with absolute and complete confidence say that there is no higher being, until we have complete knowledge of the universe?

Now, my question for theists. What makes you say that a higher beings cares particularly about us; why do you think he vests such a personal interest in us? We are not special. We are merely organisms with a higher intelligence level than most. Also, it works the same way, both ways. How can you, with complete certainty, say that a higher being does exist, when there is no proof? How can you even know the details of Heaven, Hell, angels, when there is not a shred of proof, except for your religious texts, which were written in an ignorant time when men thought the world was flat?

I myself am an agnostic, and although I don’t personally believe in a higher being, I don’t rule out the possibility that one might exist. However, if one does exist, I take the deists’ approach, that it does not interfere in human concerns.
@ Fiction Slayer. You’re not answering my question, just avoiding it. I’m certainly not saying that you should believe in some ancient religious text; I’m merely saying it is illogical and ignorant to claim with 100% certainty that a God does not exist, based on the reasons I provided.

Atheists who with 100% certainty say God doesn’t exist can never satisfactorily answer this question?

A dog has limited intelligence. Based on what it can perceive, based on what it can retain and observe based on it’s limited environment, and based on said limited intelligence, a dog can with complete certainty think that the small plot of land it lives in is the entire world, or that the humans it has seen are the only humans in the entire world, or that it will live forever. We know these things to be false, because we have higher intelligence, and know of things that are far beyond a dog’s comprehension and intelligence.
