Soul
RE: Soul
(April 5, 2013 at 11:45 pm)Tex Wrote: First, your assertion that it's magic is basically functioning as a strawman, especially since I have never used the word, "magic" in my discussion. Quit it.

You used the term 'non-physical organs', which is no different from invoking dragons or faeries to make a point. Don't show me logic arguments. Show me the non-physical organ.

Quote:Second, what you quoted isn't supposed to be an argument. You keep doing this game, even the post I am responding to is playing this game, and I'd like you to comment on the argument rather than just strawman it at every turn, regardless. Quit it.

Your argument is not valid unless you show me the organ.

Quote:Third, either tell me why I am wrong or tell me a more coherent solution. You didn't answer the question i gave you. You redirected with a strawman'd question that I have been answering questions/objections for the past 11 pages. Quit it.

You have not answered the question.

Quote:Fourth, the pot shot at God didn't even have to do with the subject. I think you just like to hate. Quit it.

I added a mention of God for comparison's sake. If you feel insecure about the implications, it's not my fault.

Quote:Fifth, while the understanding of the ancient philosophers of the physical was abysmal, that has nothing to do with a coherent metaphysics. Your attack is ad homenim. Quit it.

What is a coherent metaphysics?

Quote:Sixth, the analogies used are for understanding, not for proving. People understand better with the analogies. Quit it.

Quote:Finally, I have given the entire argument with no analogies (Post #74) and you responded that they were all assumptions and presuppositions(post #76). When I requested your issues because you were playing this same game of "you're wrong because I say so" (post #78), you gave me a list (Post #79). When I explained (post #85) how quantities were not material (NO ANALOGIES!), you flip flopped and changed your stance to say that quantities were just concepts in the mind (post #86). I both called you out and pretended that you had just had an epiphany (Post #89) and answered your new objection. Then you waited 18 posts later, nearly 2 full pages and 5 full days to respond again, but only on a recent comment to discredit an example given by taking it too far (post #107). Now you claim I have to prove my claim without analogies, and the truth is, I already have. You even responded. Quit it.

You made posts to which I responded. Would you like a gold star for that? You have not yet proved a single solitary assertion you've made. Show me the organ. Show me proof that one must have that organ in order to comprehend quantity. Show me exactly how it interacts with the physical portions of our body. Show me proof that some organ besides the brain is responsible for these things. Don't waste my time with your assumption-laced logic arguments. Don't waste my time with whining about my not taking such foolishness seriously. This isn't a seminary and bullshit is not legal tender here. And don't tell me what to do. You're not my real dad.
