Professor's Proposition: Only Two Logical Choices
#11
RE: Professor's Proposition: Only Two Logical Choices
Blackrook Wrote:For example, Joan of Arc revealed something she knew to the Dauphin of France that convinced him to give her control of the armies of France. Also, she identified him even though another man pretended to be the Dauphin while he hid among the courtiers. And she predicted the result of a battle that was hundreds of miles away.

How does this provide evidence for god? She identified a man in disguise and guessed the winner of a battle correctly and that qualifies as a divine miracle?

Blackrook Wrote:In more recent times, Padre Pio performed many miracles, including his stigmata, and he predicted that a certain Polish priest would one day be Pope, and it happened many years later.
If you wait long enough, any prophecy will be fulfilled. Like this one.

Blackrook Wrote:But my Dad has other reasons, I think, that have nothing to do with modern miracles.
Modern miracles are really the only evidence for god that is valid. The bible's true origins are hazy, and it is rife with contradictions. Lastly:
An unexplained energy catalyzed the singularity that, eventually caused the world to reach where it is today. Was the catalyst:
A. a little burst of unexplained energy, or
B. An omnipotent, all-knowing sentiency that arose spontaneously from nothing and can exist without physical form
I could go on about the many other problems the god concept runs into, but I'll at least wait until you respond to this post.
