Any Theists on AF, I Challenge You to a Debate on the Existence of God

[Esquilax]

Do you understand the difference between asserting the existence of information, and detailing what that information is?

Your problem is with understanding the information. You and I given the same information reach opposite conclusions. Mine in line with the authors and their descendants.

Obviously, however, only one of us can be correct, which leads to my second point...

Yours not. Personally I'd rather you focus on your own ideas rather than trying to understand from putting someone else's thoughts down.

Which is that I'm well aware that my own ideas aren't necessarily correct, and that if I'm to understand the universe I must first understand that other people are a part of the universe. Their perspectives are a means by which my own understanding can be expanded, either through getting new truthful ideas, or bad ones I can interrogate and figure out what's wrong with them. I only get to the putting down phase when ideas are presented either overly aggressively, or not at all, which is why I asked about the difference between the assertion of information, and the presentation of the same.

So far, I've only ever seen you do the former, which might potentially be perfectly good justification for you to believe, but not for me, which is kinda why I'm here on this forum.
