Lamberth's reduced animism argument notes that theism is just reduced animism and thus supertitious,albeit with one spirit instead of the many of full animism and polytheism. So when you're laughing at the primitives who fear the god of the volcano, you're no better with your one behind all Nature instead of their many behind the forces of Nature. Praying is just a form of animism whether to Thor or to Allah or Yahweh.
Lamberth's non-genetic argument notes that theists themselves with their unsubstantiated arguments from happiness-purpose and from angst boomerangs on them, by affirming our naturalist arguments why they believe and so these arguments don't rely on the genetic fallacy.
The two arguments refute McGregor's argument that we do commit that fallacies in saying religions stem from magic, but no, because they still reside in magic with prayers, exorcisms, faith-healing and such!
No, we aren't atheists, because of a conflict with our fathers or we want to act immorally! We just find no evidence for His very existence, and how could we ever find any for that square circle anyway as the Lamberth the ignostic-Ockham illuminates!
And per Reichenbach's argument from Existence as Existence is all God cannot transcend the Cosmos and thus cannot be Himself. Plus transcendence contradicts omnipresence!
Oh, ti's colossal arrogance that Spencerian agnostics and others maintain that never can anyone show yea or nay about His existence, and that relies on the argument from ignorance! No, such people haven't read or understood our naturalistic arguments.
Anway per Lamberth's argument from autonomy, we have no obligation to worship Being Itself, Allah or nor would any such being have authority over us! That's the dictate of rational morality!
