Disproving Odin - An Experiment in arguing with a theist with Theist logic

His post #425 followed by my post #432.

First of all you and Min's mistake is assuming that because I believe what she says about her experience 50+ years ago, that I somehow associate with her 100%,-

Once again, the concept of objectivity goes right over your head.  What you, personally believe about her is irrelevant here.  She’s a fraud.  She’s a televangelist who rips people off. This is a demonstrable fact, and I have other sources if just the one is not enough for you.  So, let’s go over what we have again with this updated information:

1. A priest who says he saw light.

2. A group of people, including a known religious con-artist, who claim they saw a light

3. A photo of light.

Again I ask...where is your evidence that the light in the photo is god?

If you knew anything about William Branhams teachings, you'd know that he spoke against women preaching, wearing pants, and cutting their hair (all biblically based), Marilyn Hickey does all three, so she obviously doesn't adhere to Branhams teachings, she just happened to attend one of his services a long time ago.[/i]

Completely irrelevant, Huggy.

But like I said, I could provide witness testimony all day, How about congressman Upshaw?

Congressman Upshaw had been on crutches for 59 years, and this is Upshaw's own testimony which was written in the above tract.

I walked into that Branham-Baxter meeting in Calvary Temple, Los Angeles, loving God and His blessed Word, leaning on my crutches that had been my “buddies”-my helpful comrades for 59 of my 66 years as a cripple-7 of those years spend on bed; I walked out that night of February 8th, leaving my crutches on the platform – the song of deliverance ringing in my heart in happy consonance with the should sof victory from those who thronged about me – their tears of rejoicing crystal with the light of the skies’ chief among them was my blessed wife whose dear face, glowing amid her joyous exclamations: “Praise the Lord” and “Glory to God,” was beaming like a patch of Heaven.

You’re serious?  Oh, you’re serious.  Lol.  You know nothing about this man’s affliction, if it was even real.  You have no access to his medical records, if any exist.  You have no way of ruling out the possibility that he was faking it, nor the possibility that there was a natural explanation for his alleged regained function.  This is blatant confirmation bias, AGAIN.  You’re starting with your conclusion and working backward from there.  And, more to the point, can you please explain to me how the hell the testimony of this congressman regarding his healed legs is evidence that that light in the photo is god? I don’t think you understand what evidence is.

Noteworthy aside:  Nowhere in the Wiki article of this man’s life is Congressman Upshaw’s ‘miraculous healing’ mentioned.


Also, I’m drinking wine, so if none of this makes sense, just say so. 😝 🍷
