Creation/evolution3

Fuck you.
Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

Anyway, to adress what you said, which didn't address my original point. Why do you continue to believe that this is factual, when there has been no empirical evidence to support it?

What makes you think I am not a member of the empire?
The Only way to say their is no Empirical Evidence for God is to change the meaning of the word 'Empirical.' Because as it stands with merrium Webster it simply points to any evidence/data based in observation OR Experience. As I have said many times I have experienced God.

I was also trying to point out that if you don't take the Bible literally, you can still be a faithful Catholic;

Yeah, not high on my list of priorities.

even my RELIGION teacher doesn't take the Bible literally.

Also not big on Religion. Maybe that is why. (one has to dilute the bible inorder for most religions to work)

My textbook on Christianity says you shouldn't take the Bible literally.

God tends to think differently.

And I don't know why you do, as it has no evidence to support wild and dubious claims.

In the bible there is a promise. If you do ABC God will Do XYZ I did the ABC and Got the XYZ. Therefore I found the evidence you did not to not only establish my belief but to maintain it come what may.

Seriously? Arguing with people is one thing, but calling them in intellectually lazy is another, especially when you continue to claim the Bible is 100% historically accurate.

I have done more than call people intelectually lazy I have gone point by point and shown them that they were. And I have spent 20+ years reading and studing the bible, and I can positivly say it is 100% of what we need to Find God.

You calling all (baseless accusation right there) atheists intellectually lazy bothers me greatly.

So? Their is a lot said on this website that bothers me greatly, but I'm still here and I do not complain to you nor anyone else about it do i? Matter of fact that is kinda the point we are here. To 'bother' each other greatlly. The only difference? I work at doing so with the truth and not just any sharp edge I can find (my dsylexia being an example of that.)

I was indoctrinated into the Catholic Church from when I was a baby upward.

Sorry

I have been at a Catholic school for the entirety of my education.

Again, sorry

I tried to believe, and read books and websites, and genuinely tried to believe, but reading different books and other sources of information led me to becoming an agnostic athiest.

Have you ever considered your current situation is an answer to your prayers?

You claim that I'm intellectually lazy, when I had to break free of an indoctrination, and when you can't even spell intellectually correctly,

yuup.
Why? look at the content of this post. Is it topical? or does it use just enough topic to veer off into a red herring?
Logical fallacies like red herrings are in of themselves not valid arguements or invalid reasoning. But to default to logical fallacy inlew of a topical discussion over and over again.. that is the laziness I am speaking of.

Also, Ender's Game is originally a book.

So? It is also a Harrison Ford movie is it not?

Ever hear of those? Also, are you trying to compare Ender to God?

No I am comparing the philosphy of breaking the will of an opponet to prevent them from comming back. Ender's Game The MOVIE was just a popculture reference that 'lazy people' might more easily relate to.

Ender is continually manipulated throughout the book, and has deep-set physiological problems, due to his sociopath brother, and unreasonable pressure put upon him, as a child, albeit an extremely intelligent one, commandeering an army.
I did read the OP, and that's part of the irony of you claiming that I am "big on baseless accusations."

Well if you did read the op and you in your post did not stick to the topic but rather used something I have said in this thread to take us off the OP's topic then you are guilty of a Red Herring. Now because I have been screaming at the constant use of logical fallacy by atheist to rail road this thread, (including the use of red herring) throughout this thread....

You guessed it! your active participation with your red herring post has made you one of the intelectually lazy Atheist I was speaking of. So like the term or not, it applies sport. If you really don't like it, and don't want me to identify you as intelectually lazy, you must change your ways... "Repent" if you will and turn from your misdeeds!
