Quote:So the miracles of the Bible was like the product of high technology rather than the supernatural?Thinking
Just an FYI I'm a philosophical theist not affiliated with any church or religion.
Quote:That's funny, because every time I hear someone claim "the universe came from nothing", it comes from a theist who misunderstands the Big Bang theory and sets up strawmen.
I have been on many boards in the past where many theists vehemently defended the hypothesis that the universe came into existence uncaused out of nothing and they offer quantum mechanics as evidence. If that isn't the case any more that's a step in the right direction.
Quote:Nor have I ever heard of anyone who insists that multiple universes definitely exist, it's nothing more than an untested hypothesis.
No, but it is often offered as a possibilty.
Quote:Are you aware of the anthropic fallacy?
Yes I am and I think its a weak counter argument. But by all means give it your best shot.
Quote:Atheists aren't the ones who propose supernatural entities. In fact, if entities as described in your mythology were shown to exist, we are pretty certain that they would natural - not supernatural - and therefore within the purview of science.
I don't know what mythology you're referring too, I am a philosophical theist. Yes I am aware the demarcation between what is 'supernatural' and what is natural is at best a moving target. Essentially the supernatural is something that can't happen unless it does happen in which case it is natural whatever that means.
