Quote:Your explanations we're absurd given the definitions that you quoted, which completely backed up my points. Go read yourself again.There is not a logical contradiction in positing that certain natural events have supernatural causes or agents involved. It is not borne out by experiment, but it is not the logical problem you seem to think it is.
Unless of course you believe in some additional proposition that says something to the effect of "things in the supernatural world are incapable of interacting with the natural world in a way that violates natural law", which is above and beyond (and in some cases, contrary to) what the word actually means.
Quote:You are completely incorrect once again. Whilst at the same time agreeing that your point is conceded. Nice.Well, it should have been obvious to you from the start that I disbelieve in miracles, based on experience, so I'm not sure what you think I have conceded. What I wanted to see was what you believe happened in circumstances like these, and what extent of cherry-picking and rationalization you would tolerate in support of this view. In return, you evaded by asking a bunch of "why wouldn't you" questions. I agree -- why wouldn't you? So are you willing to tell me what it is you actually believe happened here?
Quote:You don't understand. That much we gathered.Oh I understand what you're saying. I just don't think there's good reason to accept "the bible is true", actually, I laugh at the idea.
Cheap point, target missed.
