Is it possible?

RE: Is it possible?
Quote:Religious people are not stupid.
Religious people can determine right from left.
Religious people can count to 10.
Religious people can see colours.
Religious people know when it's night-time.

but...

Religious people choose to believe in God.


False premise based on,unsupported generalistions.The conclusion is a non sequitor,not following from the premise (even assuming it was true)

That a person is capable of reason and rational thought does not infer that he will consistently use those abilities or use them in any given circumstance So far,I've never met anyone who does.

I agree with Jung,who claimed that (generally speaking) our most powerful beliefs and attitude have little if anything to do with reason. A life time of observation,and a few years on a bunch of internet forums has only reinforced that perception.
Quote:I was talking about witnesses to Christianity, not just the Bible

So was I.

Seems clear we have very different ideas of what constitutes 'proof'


By all means continue with your Catholic apologist position. I will continue to be right. Wink Shades
