    So you’ve NEVER seen evidence of human goodness?

    That’s where I think the analogy falls apart dramatically. It’s the difference between “potentially kinda rare, sadly” and “non-existent and a signal of likely mental illness.”

      Plenty of people can point to a beautiful sunrise and say “See? There’s your evidence that God exists.” And of course, you’d try to point them to genocide in Sudan, and they’d ignore you.

      It becomes much the same issue.

        But a sunrise doesn’t prove God exists. Seeing humans be kind certainly suggests human kindness exists. It’s another dumb analogy.
