Would you like some bagpipes to accompany that 'no true Scotsman'
fallacy, moron?
Theists are those who believe some god actually exists
And you think their irrational religious beliefs determine the
actual
state of affairs?
The actual state of affairs is that some people believe a god
actually
exists.
Except for one little problem
I deny that there is any problem. Your "little problem" is evidently
something purely hypothetical, a speculative metaphysical
(non-empirical) 'might-be' imagining of yours with no basis in fact
that you can point out.
the term 'God' refers to something purely hypothetical,
Incorrect. That is, I deny what you say here, Septic. Your idea (that
a person saying "I believe a god actually exists" means "I believe in
something purely hypothetical") is evidently a purely hypothetical
speculative metaphysical (non-empirical) 'might-be' imagining of yours
with no basis in fact that you can point out. The rational
interpretation of "I believe a god actually exists" is that the person
stating it most definitely does believe (correctly or not) in a
non-hypothetical god.
We can explain this to you as many times as you'd like Septic. You
evidently need some tutoring in the semantics of the English language.
Until you get it, you'll remain the completely confused and fallacious
old idiot of alt.atheism, as always.
