Yet, at the same time she expects us to accept her miracle claims as evidence for her religion, solely on the basis that she believes, somewhere, somewhen, miracles actually happens. Not that she at no point gives any evidence for miracles, that at no point gives a rationale for believing their existence, simply because as she believes, they must surely exist. Oh, and PS when I point this out, she gets all condescending and dismissive, not willing to acknowledge her lack of standing for her position, just deflecting from it.

We come to our beliefs based on conjecture, educated guesses, maybe some personal experience if we've been lucky enough to have one, and lastly hope.

That doesn't mean the conversation isn't worth having, and looking at any miracle claim and the evidence for/against it is usually productive and interesting for both parties...providing they're as reasonable as CL. Don't try that shit with Drich or Rik. Where did I do that? You sure you're not the delusional one?

Boi, you silly. You sooo silly. For real.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

The reason it is called supernatural is simple, it is beyond the natural, i.e. it is beyond reality, i.e. it is not real.

What you cannot refute you try to ignore. Well, unfortunately for you reality* has a bad habit of being unignorable. *Including the obvious reality that your imaginary big beard in the sky doesn't exist.

I've learned better than to try to talk to Tazz because from the minute he got here he's been nothing but nasty to me and throws a bunch of straw my way. Just a couple weeks ago he called me a neo Nazi. Lol. Excuse me if I don't take the clown seriously or waste my time engaging with him. I'll talk to fatandfaithless and whateverist all day though. They are actually open to talking with me rather than just spewing shit my way.

The rice experiment really
 https://www.csicop.org/specialarticles/s...experiment Umm no their is no principle specifically of the supernatural that places it beyond testing or proof . Certainly not the supernatural as i or Carrier define it . http://richardcarrier.blogspot.ca/2007/0...tural.html
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
