Questions arising from the argument.
- Are pixies all powerful like God?
- Are pixies all knowing like God?
- Are pixies All Good like God?
- Are pixies all perfect like God?
- Are there any miracles related to pixies and if so are they demonic?
- Do anyone worship pixies?
- Is there an so called holy revelation of the pixies and does those revelations correspond to absolute truth and morals?
- Are those revelations historically accurate?
- Does worshipping pixies make you Good or Bad morally?
- Are there any fulfilled prophecies concerning pixies, like in the Bible?
This argument is an example of an incomplete understanding of Christian theology, missing as it does a major philosophical and historical aspect of Christian thought: the idea that there are positive reasons suggesting the existence of God.
Points 1-4 and 7-10 and off the mark, as it is not established that the comparison is an apt one (eg, the 'fulfilled prophecies' of the Bible are highly problematic, both textually and factually).
Points 5 and 6, however, can be answered with a resounding 'yes'. Belief in pixies persists even now in some areas of Cornwall - they are known to miraculously perform house and farm chores, and in return require gifts and thoughtful consideration from humans (worship).
