1. Science is justified.
2. Science necessarily presupposes the uniformity of nature.
3. The uniformity of nature is justified (from 1&2).
4. The existence of gods is incompatible with the uniformity of nature.
5. All gods do not exist (from 3&4).

What do you think of this argument?

I agree

I don't disapprove of gods, I just don't believe in it.

What is the 'uniformity of nature' and why is the existence of 'gods' incompatible with it?

Oh, and how (why) is science justified?

1. Science is justified.

2. Science necessarily presupposes the uniformity of nature.

Yes.

3. The uniformity of nature is justified (from 1&2).

Yes.

4. The existence of gods is incompatible with the uniformity of nature.

Not necessarily.

5. All gods do not exist (from 3&4).

All you have done is once again prove that there is no evidence that there IS a higher power, however you once again fail to disprove it.

What do you think of this argument?

Incomplete.

You again fail to grasp how it is impossible to either prove or disprove God.

The existence of gods are incompatible with the uniformity of nature, since they can violate the uniformity of nature at any time without warning due to their transcendence.

If science is not justified, why are you using a computer?
