Well, like Jesus says, ” You heard that it was said, ' You must not commit adultery.' But I say to you that everyone that keeps on looking at a woman so as to have a passion for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” (Matt 5 : 27,28)

Just re-read my sloppy comment above. In the first paragraph I meant to say that it's not clear that one needs to prove that God doesn't exist in order to have best and sufficient reason to believe God doesn't exist (as opposed to not believing in God).

Also, I should've added the following sentence to the end of the last paragraph of the post: "And Will is merely making a claim about God, with certainty, in a case where he reasonably takes himself to have best and sufficient reason to believe the thing he's claiming."

There. It's still sloppy, I suppose. Just less so.

Darby Clash and t have seen the point here. The continuum is the one of fidelity and devotion — how much mind-share and libido-share are you giving to your spouse/partner.

Joey,

It's not clear that one needs to prove that God doesn't exist in order to have best and sufficient reason to not believe in God. Probably, all one needs in order to have such reason is to think that the classic arguments for the existence of God aren't sound and that reference to God isn't needed in our best explanations about the world.

Also, it seems as though the most relevant (to this post and its comments) conception of God is something like the Judeo-Christian God. And there's great reason to think that that God can't exist, given what he's supposed to be like (all-good, all-loving, all-powerful, all-knowing, sends non-believers to hell forever).

Lastly, Will's certainty with respect to his position doesn't seem to be noticeably higher than yours about yours. We're often justified in making claims, with certainty, in cases where we have best and sufficient reason to believe the things we're claiming.
