Consistency in Presuming Agnosticism
Philo 4 (1):82-89 (2001)
| Abstract | According to the presumption of atheism, we are to presume disbelief unless agnosticism or theism can be adequately defended. In this paper I will defend the presumption of atheism against a popular objection made by Thomas Morris and elucidate an insuperable difficulty for any attempt to argue for a presumption of agnosticism | |||||||||
