Hridyananda…

 

So the simple fact of the very notion of proof is based on some kind of belief in the validity of human testimony. We may disagree on who is qualified to give testimony, but we certainly can't disagree that the basis of the very notion of evidence, demonstration, proving and objectivity is based on the testimony of some person… that saw it or heard it or felt it or whatever.

 

So we have this massive testimony about God and I don't see philosophycally how we can just uh… wave a wand and make it all vanish or pretend that that amount and that quality of human testimony means nothing. I don't believe that is consistent with our basic notions of proof.
