Another apologist with his "clever" questions

When something is patently impossible and illogical..that kind of rules it out as a logical concept, lol.

Quote:And yet, to this day it leaves one of my contemporaries without a response Wink

Hookers and blow leave me breathless.  I wouldn't read too much into things that your contemporaries don't respond to, whomever they are, whatever they are.

Quote:Undemonstrated assumption?? Please Rhythm! I can only type so much, but I will repeat myself, this time in code:

[God]

 var global.morality as integer

if (global.morality == 0) {
     print "you are bad"
}

if (global.morality == 1) {
     print "you are good"
}

[/God]


and re:evil god - because the opposite of "good", whatever it may be, will contradict the will. 
-and it remains an undemonstrated assumption.  Why would the opposite of "good" contradict "the will" and, of what?

Quote:And they would be different in yet another universe. Yes.
Not necessarily.  A creature like ourselves in any universe would be likely to share our morals.  Pragmatism.

Quote:It's not logical to treat someone badly if you want them to be good. E.g. you want to teach your son that doing the dishes is good. For some unknown reason (which is precisely why I disagree) you want to achieve this by treating him badly. Will it that every son who does the dishes gets smacked. Your son refuses to do the dishes. Logic does not compute.
Why not?  We treat bad people badly on exactly that notion...that they'll get tired of being shit upon and act right.  Maybe your god is fucking with us, torturing us, for our betterment..as it sees it? 

Quote:I agree.
-all understanding is built open a single point of agreement..glad we've found ours.

Quote:That's quite the contradiction you've got.
That's quite the inability to comprehend nuance you've got there. Let me spell it out for the obtuse; if there's a god floating around "up there" - no human being has yet described it, for all our attempts. I'm trying to be generous, giving god the benefit of the doubt. Proposing that the amatuerish attempts (look at that bullshit you tried to fob off above...really?) to project humanity unto the divine are not informative with regards to any existent god, heretofore unknown.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
