proof of end times?

RE: proof of end times?
(November 29, 2008 at 2:01 pm)Psalm 23 Wrote: The question was, "What if Jesus Christ does return to Earth?" Can you please answer the question, and try not to respond to my question with a question. That's not how a debate session works..
If Jesus returned to earth I would have a few questions for him, concerning the inaccuracies in the Bible, and why God allows suffering, etc. But I guess I'd repent and believe. Of course he'd have to prove he was Jesus first. I expect to see him fly down from Heaven, heal amputees, etc.
Quote:The "lack of evidence" argument only works if every possible angle has been studied. Can I say for 100 percent fact that Thor and Allah are imaginary gods? Answer, No I cannot. I can't prove they were not gods.
So you are rather agnostic about your faith. Thats always good. The question that now arises is why you believe in the God you do and not in any of the others.

Quote:Pascal's Wager is the ultimate answer to the question, 'What if?'
Pascal's wager doesn't answer anything. It is a failed wager on why you should believe in Gods. It says that if you believe in God and God exists, you go to Heaven whilst an atheist goes to Hell. If God doesn't exist, nothing happens to either party. At first look, it seems like the believer is the winner. This is not the case, because the wager forgets to mention other gods that the theist doesn't believe in. What if Thor were to exist? Then the theist and the atheist would both be condemned. Same goes with Allah and almost every other possible kind of God. At the end of the day, the theist has such a low "advantage" over the atheist that it makes the whole wager pointless. It also assumes that you can easily decide to believe in God and mean it, and further, that the God would overlook your dishonesty just because you are claiming to believe when you really don't. According to Pascal, feigning belief is enough to get you into Heaven.

Quote:Warning, your opinion on my Holy Bible is making you a less credible debater.
??? Since when were you not allowed to call "bullshit" in debates? The Bible is full of bullshit, and I can show you some very good examples.
