Occam's Razor...

Occam's razor is a principal used by William of Occam that states that "one should not make more assumptions than necessary". Occam's Razor helps us to get rid of details (concepts, variables, or constructs) which are not needed. Through this, the subject will become more clear and less confusion will arise. Occam's Razor is often used to question God because people feel that the idea of God is an assumption. The razor is also used to understand the Bible and eliminate unnecessary details.
