Could a p zombie end up creating a chocolate factory of some sort chaotically?
Is consciousness all that is cracked up to be?
How could an entity which doesn't exist make a claim?
Only an entity which exists can create a factory!
While it is reasonable to claim that entities that don't exist ,don't actually do anything, it does beg the question.
I am sure you came across this in your level three course.
I can dismiss idealist gods as simply not existing on this basis. They can't build chocolate factories, because they don't exist.
Flip that around.
Idealist gods create everything.
Entities that don't exist don't do anything.
Chocolate factories exist.
Therefore god exists.
No worse that jamest's arguments! (which are utter bollocks)
