Argument from evil, restated

[Fidel_Castronaut]

Oh, GC. Do you really think that you, and you alone, know the mind of God?

No never claimed that and would never, I learn much from more mature Christians than myself and glad they share what they understand. As Drich said we can know much about God by studying the study book (that would be the Bible for you that can't reason it out) He gave us. You know it's not our fault you can't see the truth in scripture, you should get upset with yourselves for being so illiterate when it comes to the scriptures. Hey guess what I had 9 year old children that knew more about the mind of God than you do, sad really.

Remember how I said you've imagined the box you've put yourself in away?

You've gone from trying to justify your arguments to simply saying "I'm right, because i'm right".

If you're trying to convince us you're right, you need to bring a little more to the table than nothing at all.

I think it a good point that often gets overlooked. There are as many Christian gods as there are Christians. I've never seen a uniform description of a god or its traits, even from two Christians who are of the same sect.

God is subjective based on the mind of the believer. What they says goes.

You aren't very attentive are you, most Christians of the Southern Baptist will give you the same answers to biblical questions. However there's an aspect of Christianity you do not understand, we each have a personal relationship with God. As individuals differ so do their relationships with God and so you will hear different things from different Christians, this is as natural as relationships between different people. There's nothing subjective about God or the believers relationship with Him. God being omniscient can have as many different relationships as there are those who want a relationship with Him. Thank God for all our differences, it would be a boring world if everyone was like you.

So now you've descended into insult for disagreement.

You know absolutely nothing outside your little box. Belief and religion is entirely subjective on the context of said belief. The evidence for this is the astounding level of different religions that purportedly believe in the same 'god' but disagree with each other over every minute detail.

There's a fallacy called a "no true Scotsman" which, in my many years on a variety of forums, has been the no.1 fallacy employed by theists to decry the musings of other theists who disagree with them over the nature of belief.

Your reply also highlights to me why and everyone else why you just don't get it, why you're a robot, and why you'll never listen to anyone or anything that doesn't agree with you. Belief is personal (you admit that yourself!), but you contradict yourself in the same paragraph by saying that there is nothing subjective about believers or their relationship (thank god for all our differences - DUH).

You've also contradicted your argument a further time by praising your fairy woman for differences, and then sleight of hand insulting me for being different from you despite the fact you just praised your god for that same difference. Are you going to reply by insinuating that I was inferring one and all should be the same? Then be warned you will be employing a Strawman because that will be a point of contention you have dreamed up alongside your version of whatever god it is you worship.

So, who is the more attentive one now? The guy who contradicts himself every other sentence, or the guy just asking a few questions?
