No I am not 100% sure, I might believe in the future, but I hope I wouldn't without evidence. And I doubt there will be evidence, but I don't rule it out absolutely. I'd be surprised, yeah, but I don't rule it out.
I thought someone had mentioned choice, and I guess they hadn't, my mistake. Apologies.
Quote:Baseless & unsupportable assertion. Repeatedly pointed out to you yet still you persist with it.
It's an opinion of mine that you have been guilty of NTS a few times on these forums.
Like now when you say that prayers are answered if they're genuine. But without a further argument, that implies that if a prayer isn't answered then it must not be genuine. In itself that is fallacious reasoning, because you can just say that any prayer that isn't answered is because it's not genuine, regardless of if it is or not.
Quote:Absolutely. Thankyou for your support.
I wasn't supporting you.
I'm saying that your beliefs are apparently so ridiculous that they can't be evidenced, and yet you seem to think this makes it more reasonable for you to believe without evidence. But my point is, that whether there can be evidence or not, how is it rational to believe without any? And if anything, beliefs that are so ridiculous that there can be no evidence for them, would be even more crazy to believe without any, and just go on ahead and believe anyway.
Quote:My God claims have been exhaustively supported. That you ignorantly repeat the demand for scientific proof despite the logic presented to you is inconsequential.
You don't know how he answers, but you can know because it has been detailed for you should you care to look into it. So again you display ignorance of your subject.
How have they been supported? Where has it been demonstrated that God is at all probable to exist? I do not demand scientific proof, I request any valid evidence whatsoever. If you can outdo science and somehow display some other evidence that is valid, be my guest. If you can demonstrate that God is probable in any way, be my guest. Why should I believe that there is any support for God if you can't?
You say it has been detailed for me if I care to look into it, but from what I've seen, I've seen no evidence. And no, this doesn't display my ignorance on the subject, it just displays that I haven't found any evidence, regardless of if there is any or not. You think I'm ignorant of the subject, I don't. I haven't seen any evidence.
