*Only scientific works need to submit scientific evidence
Quote:*Bible is a religious work not a scientific work(it's called the Christian faith not the Christian science isn't it and nowhere inside Bible it claims it is a scientific work)Agreed, magic book is not scientific. It's not scientific, because the method was not used to produce it, and it;s positively -unscientific- in that the claims it purports as facts are falsifiable, and have been falsified..by the scientific method.
Quote:*When you ask for evidence of a God you are strawmanning that Bible is a scientific work(which you haven't proven)I can prove that it purports to report facts that can be and have been tested by the scientific method...and have been falsified by the same. I can also explain how, by definition..magic book is not a scientific text. A point on which we agree. However, asking for scientific evidence of any of these claims is not a strawman, it's just a query as to whether or not any of the claims rise to a particular standard of evidence. Do they, in your opinion? Regardless of how you bring yourself to answer this question, this time, a person is not insisting that you believe that it is a scientific text when asking you for scientific evidence, or even evidence in the general. If you don;t believe that magic book is either..and someone asks you for it....just....say....no. Acknowledge that you don;t have scientific evidence, or evidence, and don't think that magic book is either. Problem solved, no one has straw manned anyone, and clarification of ones position has been provided.
Quote:*So if you want evidence of a God then you have to first prove that Bible is scientificHardly. You;re now attempting to misclassify a straw man by use of equivocation....and you're still fucking it up.
You cannot simultaneously bristle at the suggestion that magic book is...and isn't...a scientific text. That it does, and doesn't, make claims that could be evidenced. In both cases, the propositions are mutually exclusive, and your comments in both regards are an incoherent mess.
