@Humanisticus @PhilosophyExp it can still be a valid argument though, even with false premises...

@SIN_Notung @PhilosophyExp How?

@Humanisticus @PhilosophyExp well in philosophy "validity" is usually just when the conclusion follows from premises, not necessarily true

@SIN_Notung @PhilosophyExp Well from a factual standpoint, it's an indefensible position.

@Humanisticus @SIN_Notung It clearly isn't indefensible, since I'm defending it, and I don't think you're doing particularly well! :)

@PhilosophyExp @SIN_Notung Well the holocaust is defensible if you want to get pedantic about it.

@Humanisticus @SIN_Notung But, as I said to Notung, Dawkins's arguments supporting his case are weak.
