    One of the many fallacies we see tried by godists every day.
    But the fact is there is no proof (or even evidence) of any divinity outside biblical/holy book claims. Period.

    Circular Reasoning
    circulus in demonstrando
    ......
    Description: A type of reasoning in which the proposition is supported by the premises, which is supported by the proposition, creating a Circle in reasoning where NO Useful information is being shared.
    This Fallacy is often quite Humorous.
    ......
    Example #2:

    The Bible is the Word of God because God tells us it is... in the Bible.

    Explanation: This is a very serious circular argument on which many people base their entire lives.
    This is like getting an e-mail from a Nigerian prince, offering to give you his billion dollar fortune -- but only after you wire him a “good will” offering of $50,000. Of course, you are skeptical until you read the final line in the e-mail that reads “I, prince Nubadola, assure you that this is my message, and it is legitimate. You can trust this e-mail and any others that come from me.” Now you know it is legitimate... because it says so in the e-mail.​
