1.all actions performed by actors are a result of cause and effect
2.all effects follow causes in time
3.time is required for actions
And yet again your assertions that a god could exist atemporally, is not a being and that Jesus was 100% man and 100% a god go unanswered. Perhaps you would like to support your assertions? It would make a pleasant change.

This is a problem of your own making as you either do not clearly state what yoe believe, or change what you believe to fit the debate.

But if you have some show some.You are blatantly twisting my response. But seeing how you know god exists and you also know that it is physically unprovable, perhaps you'd like to offer your reasoning?

(March 2, 2011 at 9:23 am)fr0d0 Wrote: that these are two aspects of this subject. You are trying to narrow this down to something it isn't, which makes it impossible and irrelevant for me to answer.Aaah the unknowable question, the unreachable goal, the incomprehensible majesty of god. Just when you try and pin it down...poof it disappears behind words like these. You're sounding a lot like that tailor who built an amazing coat for the Emporer, but no-one could see it becuase they weren't clever enough.
