Is Atheism Good Evidence for Atheism ? On John Schellenberg’s Argument from Ignorance
European Journal for Philosophy of Religion 7 (1):71--88 (2015)
Abstract
The argument from ignorance mounted by John Schellenberg argues from the existence of non-faulty unbelief to the non-existence of God, from the fact of atheism or agnosticism to the truth of atheism. It relies on two putative conceptual relations: between the idea of love and that of personal relationship, and between personal relationship and existential belief on each side of the relation concerning the other relatum. I argue that each is debatable, and so the argument cannot proceed.
