    Part of a larger discussion

    Challenges→Source physicalism is many times more probable intrinsically than omni-theism.

    If source idealism is more intrinsically probable than source physicalism, then even a lower probability for omni-theism relative to idealism leaves the ranking of physicalism versus omni-theism indeterminate.

    Key Terms

    Indeterminate(Reichenbach's three-valued quantum logic)
    The value of propositions that quantum theory implies cannot be assessed to be either true or false
    Intrinsically probable(as a measure of how likely something seems on its own merits)
    Likely to be true based on its own properties or logical structure, independent of any other evidence or comparison.
    Ranking(as used in social choice theory)
    Ordering things from best to worst (or first to last) according to some criteria or preference.
    omni-theism(Used as the target hypothesis being challenged by probabilistic atheistic arguments)
    The belief in the existence of an omni-God (a God possessing all-encompassing attributes such as omnipotence, omniscience, and omnibenevolence)
    source idealism

    (Treated as a more general hypothesis of which omni-theism is a specific subtype.)
    The view that a mental entity or mind is the source or cause of the physical world.
    source physicalism(The alternative hypothesis employed in the low priors argument)
    An alternative hypothesis to omni-theism, posited as many times more probable than omni-theism; argued to be compatible with some forms of theism in which God is an emergent entity
