I don’t feel [my arguments in favor of religion] are sufficient and I want to improve them
I know you’ve heard this from several other people in this thread, but I feel it’s important to reiterate: this seems to be a really obvious case of putting the cart before the horse. It just doesn’t make sense to us that you are interested only in finding arguments that bolster a particular belief, rather than looking for the best arguments available in general, for all the beliefs you might choose among.
I’m not asking you to respond to this right now, but please keep it firmly in mind for your Discussion post, as it’s probably going to be the #1 source of disagreement.
