Deism for non-believers
#86
RE: Deism for non-believers
I knew -- and I said -- all along that your story of "deconversion" was a sham

Fallacy Bullshit Special Pleading aka Moving the goalposts aka being a disingenuous fucktard.

A) X must be true, by fiat.

B) What specious arguments, assertions, and other horseshit can I try to float to support A?

C) Post B ad nauseum.

Then stop me at step B and show me why I'm wrong.


I dropped you in your tracks at (A). No need to go any further.

Where did you get that from? I never said creation is intervention. I've said the opposite this whole time.

Special Pleading/moving the goalposts/ disingenuous/fucktard.

Repeating the same lie over and over as nauseum doesn't make it true.

Quote:Of course, "creation" doesn't need a creator - that's just one more gap that no god lives in. uAnd it's the crucial one - if no creator is needed, no god is either, of
bqbq any kind. That's the last gap and it's welded shut. No more god-o-the-gaps. Now we have to await objective evidence that a god objectively exists. And the universe has only a few (okay, a whole lot) billion years left, so I don't think anyone will ever see any.

You have evidence to prove that?

It hasn't happened yet in the first whole lotta billion years, no reason to assume it will in the last.
