It takes a sickening case of special pleding to argue that even so, the bullshit technique remains valid in this one case where the weakminded happen to wish it to remain valid.Red Herring. Lilly asked you point blank how this is not possiable. your response to repeat yourself in saying it was not possiable then undergird your statement by threating anyone who does not agree with you as weakminded or not logical..
The Question remains...
Care to answer it or are you just going to puff yourself up alittle more and pose a little harder?
Quote:Prior to the achievement of technological prowess, it was possible to argue with less disingenuousness than would be needed today that such thought processes as might arrive at metaphysical god was, while not demonstratably valid, was also not demonstrably more invalid than anything else. Hence in the absence of knowing how to thinking, it might appear wish think was as good as any for tructh finding, while affording the additional benefit of increasing the chance that such "truth" as might be "found" would also "happen" to comply more to one's own wishes.Do you want to know why your arguement here fails? You must first establish God can not work through any other means than the supernatural, and even then 'technology' can technically be considered 'supernatural.' 2a : departing from what is usual or normal especially so as to appear to transcend the laws of nature

Gooluck with that..
Quote:So metaphysical god is only justified on the basis of "when everything is bullshit, this is as good a piece of bullshit as anything else".who says? Why?
Quote:With the advent of technology, is has been shown that not everything is bullshit, and those which are not bullshit does not include metaphysical god.Who says? you? Are we supposed to just take your word for it because you think God is supposed to be just some sort of Great magician? If so is your defination or understanding of God even accurate? Being an unstudied atheist, do you even know what you are talking about when it comes to the God of the bible? Or have you just created a god in your own mind not compatiable with nature or technology, and that is what you are refering to?
If the latter then just say so and you can repersent the god you created in way you wish. If you are attempting to repersent the God of the bible then please produce book chapter and verse that explicitly says God can not work though nature or technology.
