What is the “God of the Gaps” fallacy?


Westerners call it “God of the Gaps” fallacy to believe in existence of a God based upon the conclusions, behind which a rational reason exists but not explained yet due to the gaps in the human knowledge.

As an example to this it can be mentioned that the people lived in the Medieval Europe assumed that celestial bodies are moved upon angels’ push and, thereby, believed existence of God based on this assumption.

The fallacy of this assumption has not been realized until Newton announced the laws of motion.

If the Koran had been the expression written 1400 years ago by someone who was conditioned to see the God in everything he looked at, we should have definitely seen the examples of this situation in it (the Koran).
