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

The guy was a public figure, you can find photographs of him as a young man in a wheel chair, seeing how he received a spinal injury at 18 and spent the next 7 years of his life bedridden, so the best you can do is claim the man has been faking the injury for 66 years?

JFC, Huggy. You can’t possibly be this much of a dolt. Before his Branham days, Upshaw was walking around on two legs getting his supposed cancer miraculously healed by a Brother Ogilvie. Upshaw is a crook and a liar. It took me about ten minutes of research to learn as much.  The only desperate thing here is your credulity.

You’ve been had. These people were con-artists then, and their stories are still conning people like you today; people who want to believe accountings like these are true in the face of all evidence to the contrary.

And Ofc, none of this Hickey/Upshaw business has anything to do with demonstrating with evidence that light in a photo is god.

What you HAVE demonstrated in this thread is your passion for confirmation bias, your complete misunderstanding of the word ‘evidence’, and a total abandonment of critical thinking.

What is it?

Well...it’s God, by definition, duh.

Quote:What is it not?

It’s not any of the things that aren’t god. Easy!

Quote:What is it made of?

God-stuff!  It’s GOD. We can’t know. Why would you even entertain such a question?!

Quote:How can we determine whether something is a god or not a god?

If it’s not made of god-stuff, or if it’s made of stuff that’s not god, then it’s not god. On the other hand, if it’s god, then it’s god. Got anything tougher?

Quote:Where do you find it?

In a changeless, timeless place otherwise known as, ‘nowhere, ever.’

What are you talking about, Mathilda!  God is perfectly well-defined!  😝

Quote:Look at that. I saved us a lot of time if you just want to fast forward to the end and admit that belief in God is not your thing, but it is not irrational.

@steve

I just want you to answer this one question, and then I’ll let you have the last word here.  You and Mathilda have a lot going on.

Why should I take seriously the positing of an entity that, by definition, requires no explanation for its alleged attributes and powers, and cannot be demonstrated to exist?
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
