Iv'e made such quips many times--but at this moment I want to assemble all the arguments I can a refute what he's saying or at least point out all the BS...but I'm using your blowjob analogy--I can't let the good ones get away---Best, John
Actually, if you move passed the joke, it actually confirms his own creationist argument is futile .... It just states everything is possible (my view as an atheist) and doesn't give any reason why his first premise is the most likely?
His argument basically states anything that is "known to cause effects exhibiting information rich and specified complexity." "is a possible cause for the universe and life."
So if you are worried about being banned from the forum ... just use this ....
1) Many things are known to cause effects exhibiting information rich and specified complexity.
2) The universe and life are effects that exhibit information rich in specified complexity.
3) Therefore, Many things are a possible cause for the universe and life.
Religion is the top shelf of the supernatural supermarket ... Madog
