MysticKnight Wrote:Consciousness is not a physical thing, neither can it be created solely by physical forces.Oh, but it is. It cannot exist without the brain, as I have repeatedly explained on this thread and others. Do try to pay attention and read up on how the brain works, pretty please? It is the result of an extremely dense collection of neurons and synsapses firing in response to input from our senses, nothing more.
Quote:This has been obvious to most of humanity through history, with most concluding we thus have a soul.It was 'obvious' to humanity throughout history that the earth was the physical centre of the universe and that the planets and stars revolved around it. Then; SCIENCE, BITCHES! It was 'obvious' to most people that the earth was flat, then; SCIENCE, BITCHES! It was 'obvious' to most people that diseases were caused by bad smells and demonic curses, then; SCIENCE, BITCHES! It was 'obvious' that floods and earthquakes were the result of the wrath of an angry god, then; SCIENCE, BITCHES!
Do not base your arguments on the historic assumptions of the ignorant masses, it only makes you look foolish.
Quote:We inherit our good actions and inherit our evil actionsTrue, no argument there. Good and evil deeds are passed down generation to generation, and they reverbrate throughout history and society. You're actually making sense there.
Quote:we increase in value or decrease in value, all this is non-physical, and it's obvious we are connected to a spiritual kingdom by which our actions raise us or bring us down.Aaaaand he's back. Good and evil are manifested by physical actions made by physical people with physical brains that emit physical thoughts. None of this is non-physical, none of it.
In what way is it obvious? You keep blindly asserting this as though it was true, what EVIDENCE do you have to actually back it up?
Quote:Darkness created by evil actions and light created by good actions is an obvious fact to most of humanity through out history, all believing in darkness and light.Again true, no argument here. There are good and evil people in the world, who come about through a mixture of genetic predisposition and external influences. Nothing about that suggests a twitchy, homophobic SkySkipper is pulling the strings.
Quote:Atheists deny things we all know to be true.We deny only that which cannot be proven, and only that for which there is no real tangible evidence. Simple as. I do not 'know' it to be true, I find your entire belief system pathetically outdated and totally logically inconsistent, requiring leaps of faith that laugh in the face of reason and that are not capable of being made by my brain.
Quote: It's not our obligation to show obvious properly basic facts, we can simply remind about it, and that is sufficient.Your definition of facts and mine are wildly different, my friend. As long as you 'remind' us of these things, we'll be here to point out why they suck balls from a logical standpoint.
