Why I'm on these forums (Q/A)

[Angrboda]

Mystic, the problem is that all your arguments reduce to arguments from ignorance. "I don't know how X could be naturally, therefore it's magic." I have no problem talking about souls and self and identity and justice, but as rhythm pointed out, you have a terrible habit of accusing anyone who doesn't see things your way as being irrational. When you can't explain something in terms of material processes, you leap to the conclusion that it must be something magical. That's not an example of valid reasoning. And your posts in this thread make that clear. You complain that atheists don't provide substantive counter-arguments, therefore you are justified in concluding what you do. No, that's not a valid reason. I understand the nature of identity and the 'soul' -- that I've chosen not to explain them to you is not my problem.
