The god of the gaps argument is void.

[Andrei the 2nd]

The God of the gaps argument is void.

Individuals need to stop using the argument that just because it's there, we need to blame it on a deity. It's just a mere assumption and it will not prove anything. Like they argue that because there lacks an explanation and has many gaps on how something came into existence, they blame it on a deity and assure to people that - divine intervention is responsible for creating what ever's existence.
That's fallacious reasoning and debaters need to refrain from using that argument. Why? Let's see why...

A lot of debaters try to convince the person to be open-minded on the existence of a divine intervention, or assert people that since it lacks an explanation and has many gaps, therefore it is God who was responsible.

Let's try using the gaps argument against them; instead this time, substitute God with a giant flamboyantly gay lizard. Why does it have to be God or whatever deity they're arguing for? It could just be a gay lizard that created everything, since there's there lacks evidence for and against it. We still do not know how the universe came in existence and we have theories, but why does it have to be their god?
Sounds redundant doesn't it? Well, that's how I feel the same when people argue for a divine existence, like the Abrahamic god Yahweh for an example, created us.


"The human body system is one of the most complex things out there and I do not understand where it came from and how it was created, (although science argues that it was the result of evolution for a very long time and was created by the environment and surroundings around us in which formed and led to what us humans are today) therefore God did it."

Many things over the millennia that were once assumed to have been created by god, have been to shown the opposite by science arguing that natural explanations are responsible for their existence, not some supernatural force. The discovery of the existence of microorganisms destroyed the belief that god created illnesses in which was believed for millennias, for an example rules out the divine intervention taking responsibility for it.

Why do individuals use it so often for an existence of their god? People need to evaluate their dogmas and try apply critical thinking to the stuff they believe in, for once.
