I love it when anyone puts anything Star Trek related anywhere near Tegh's posts. <3
If truth is relevant, are we all liars or are we all telling the "truth"...? RE: Origin of Articles

Since your previous statements were mere assertions, any conclusions you draw from them are equally unsupported.

Deductive logic can deal in absolute truth in the case of a valid argument with true premises. If all cats are mammals and Periwinkle is a cat, then Periwinkle must be a mammal; that is, it's true that Periwinkle is a mammal if Periwinkle is a cat. Proofs are for maths and whiskey, and logic is part of math. I agree with you about science, which is about arriving at the closest possible approximation of the truth: good enough to make devices that rely on quantum activity, but not absolute.

So if laws of logic are human creations, could the universe have both existed and not existed at the same time before humans were around???

Do people physically carry their laws of logic or trip over them when they leave them lying around the house? Of course not. Laws of logic are immaterial, universal and never change. I'm just exposing the errors produced by your personal worldview.
James Holmes acted consistent with what evolution teaches. He evolved from an animal, and when he murdered those people, He acted like one. You can't say he's wrong since evolution made him that way.

Many things do not change, or are immaterial, like the laws of logic. Planck's constant, for instance. These things, however, are in no way evidence that a supernatural being created the world.

How do you account for immaterial, universal and unchanging laws of logic in a strictly material universe? The answers given show that evolutionists have an inconsistent and illogical belief system.

Also, how do any of the answers given show that evolution is illogical? Actually back up your statements. The laws of logic appear unchanging to us because we all are the same species, therefore we will think in the same, or a similar way.

The Koolaid is strong in this one.
Trying to update my sig ...
Elunico13 does not seem to grasp the idea at all.
He is a 'if there are laws who is the law maker' idiot. The "laws" are our desrcription of the physical world they in no way suggest that the laws are "made" just that that is how things are. So if you throw an apple in the air it is a "law" that it comes down and we all know why that is dont we. Its the spaghetti monster pushing it down with his noodley appendages. You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. |
