Christian Apologetics and Arguments are Futile
#16
RE: Christian Apologetics and Arguments are Futile
The philosophical arguments at best do two things. Make WLC and Christians feel ( which is what they are largely made to do) and prove deism. These arguments can not any religion and argue for all beliefs equally well.
The historicity argument fails in a similar way too because if accept the miracles of Jesus as valid that you have to consider all of the messiahs as possible and some of them are far better documented then yeshua.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
