'It's possible that God exists'
To get here you've accepted that it is possible for God to exist. Even if you have trouble believing this, it means that I have an avenue to certainty in my worldview. This is because the God of the Bible has revealed some things to us such that we can know them for certain. Given that God is all powerful, you'd have to be intellectually dishonest to argue that it is absolutely impossible for God to reveal things to us with certainty.
If you reject God you do not have any way of knowing anything with any level of certainty. And if you can't know anything for certain, it logically follows that you don't really know anything (in an epistemic sense). You do know things - but you can't justify any of your knowledge. This is absurd, and philosophers like Hume, Socrates, and Nietzsche were reduced to utter skepticism over this problem. They ended up concluding that we can't really know anything. Socrates said, "The only thing I know is that I don't know anything!" But this is totally absurd, and the questions I have for that are - do you know that?! How do you know that?
The thing is that you do know things, but you're unable to know if your reasoning is valid. To learn more about the solution to the problem of knowledge click the button below.
