Explain how you know rational thought requires an entity you cannot demonstrate the existence of without circular reasoning. Consciousness is an internal narrative composed often in reverse and slightly out of sync with events, to order reality in a way that is comprehensible to the organism for survival. It is an evolved adaptation to the environment allowing for difficult decision making, of which abstract conceptualization is a further adaptation. Explain how God is possible, and base it on evidence. (May 28, 2014 at 6:59 pm)Rampant.A.I. Wrote:(May 28, 2014 at 6:54 pm)Artur Axmann Wrote: I'm not fabricating, but you are..

And ,how can you say god doesn't exist for lack of empirical evidence. Have you travelled from one end of the universe to the other and you've peeked behind every planet and photographed behind every star and you can now say with certainty :god doesn't exist because you saw none.

It is explained, if you actually bothered to read a biology book, you would know this.

But I am interested in something: since you haven't travelled from one end of the universe to the other and looked behind every planet and whatever, do you claim that fairies don't exist? How about bigfoot? Or the tooth fairy?
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech (May 28, 2014 at 7:21 pm)Artur Axmann Wrote: Have you travelled from one end of the universe to the other and you've peeked behind every planet and photographed behind every star and you can now say with certainty :god doesn't exist because you saw none. Yes.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

They just love to stretch their arguments to the extreme, don't they? If someone had genuinely done all this they would then ask "What of alternate universes or other dimensions?" Why can't their deity make an appearance tthat can't be questioned as it apparently did in the OT days? Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???" |
