A new understanding to an old premise

I have the words of Christ, is that enough?

Quote:then perhaps the Mormons also have similar evidence to support their own doctrine that Heaven is actually a Solar System where God lives and that Hell is located on Earth.
Any 'proof' they would provide would contradict Christ's own proclaimation.

Quote:How do you know that your assumption is right, and that the Mormons' assumptions are wrong?
My 'assumption' is only right if one chooses to worship the God of the bible. I do not care to worship any other 'gods.' Not even the Mormon one.

Quote:I'm not the person to answer your questions.
fair enough.

Quote:That's a strawman argument, and I don't go after those. "I don't know" is all you'll get from me because I'm not too concerned with baseless assumptions. You can believe you existed before you were born, but you still need to provide evidence to your claim. If you cannot, you shouldn't tell others that these ideas of yours are true.
I did not assume anything. I ASKED how did you know you did not ask God, then proceed to give you a reason why you would not remember asking.

Quote:If you're equating earth to a prison, and if, as you assert, we are put here by god, then we are condemned to this existence. If a person is in prison, then we can only assume that he/she committed some crime. "Criminal" may have been uttered by me, but it was a word unspoken by you. You just projected your own assertion onto the critic (me), and that is a fallacy of ignorance.
Maybe you should take the time to read the part you previously ignored. Your argument and mislabled fallacy falls apart there.
