Basically he is saying you can't deny the existence of something if you don't know what it is.

That's the rub, in transcendental religions with this as a proviso it becomes impossible to even talk about God, he transcends the natural world and escapes any hope of comprehension other than a simple label. In effect transcendental religions have defined themselves into a circle. They define God as something undefinable and then claim that anyone who counters their beliefs is at fault because they can't define God. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder.
