The Equivalence of Proofs in Religions A Critical Analytical Study
Keywords:
Proofs, proportionality, religion, atheism, agnosticismAbstract
Investigating the proofs for establishing the true religion is essential for the foundation, consolidation, and development of religious matters based on the true religion. Every religious issue has supporting evidence demonstrating its veracity and refuting opposing claims. Therefore, the proofs of religion are characterized by certainty. Despite the clarity of this matter, some have asserted that there is no evidence to prove or disprove the true religion, attributing this to the equivalence of evidence for affirmation and negation. This reasoning stems from the limited capacity of the human intellect to comprehend religious matters. Consequently, according to this claim, no one can definitively declare a religion to be true or false, nor does anyone possess the true religion. The fallacy of this claim is evident in its contradiction of primary evidence. Despite its obvious invalidity, some continue to propagate this notion, leading to consequences that attempt to undermine and subtly deny religion. This research aims to shed light on the claim of equivalence of evidence in religions by elucidating its concept, origins, and prominent proponents, with the aim of refuting it.
Based on this, this research came to evaluate the claim of proportionality of the proofs on religions, in order to expatiate its concept and its popular proponents and to refute it.
