Critical cognitivists about God claim that

    { 1 } - we have no knowledge of God.
    { 2 } - statements about God can be translated into statements about our feelings.
    { 3 } - we can know about God by an inner intuition.
    { 4 } - facts about the universe or about our religious feelings can be evidence for beliefs about God.

This is skepticism, not critical cognitivism.

4 is correct!

Critical cognitivists about God claim that

    { 1 } - we have no knowledge of God.
    { 2 } - statements about God can be translated into statements about our feelings.
    { 3 } - we can know about God by an inner intuition.
    { 4 } - facts about the universe or about our religious feelings can be evidence for beliefs about God.

Critical cognitivists admit that we can't PROVE the existence of God from such facts (any more than we can PROVE the existence of external objects from our sensations or PROVE the existence of other minds from external behavior). But they contend that such facts can give evidence of some sort for the existence of God.

Chisholm seems to think that this is the best approach for justifying our knowledge of God.
