| What the theist does at every step of his reasoning is to read his own feelings and desires into nature. |
| Every theist is essentially a creationist in the generic sense of the term, even if he or she places that creation billions of years in the past. |
| In particular, it invites the theist to explain how a being that is omniscient, omnibenevolent, and omnipotent can allow evil to exist. |
| The theist who wants to build a systematic and thorough apologetic finds that he is required to begin absolutely from the beginning. |
| It matters little whether a person is able to list herself as a believer or unbeliever, an atheist or a theist, a being of gnosis or of a-gnosis. |
| The Atheist is only calling the attention of the theist to the consequences of his own argument. |
