An invitation to debate.

[Jehanne]

I know that this forum does not have a debate sub-forum, and so, if the moderators want to move this thread to the debate sub-forum in the philosophy area that is fine with me.  I am looking to be debate any interested parties on the following question:



Any takers, feel free to jump in!  I would ask, however, that this thread be limited to debate only and without extended commentary, especially, on other topics.

OK. This could be interesting.

You're an intelligent poster who would certainly be capable of calling me out on the weak parts of my argument. An example of my rule of thumb that the quality of the debate is in inverse proportion to the level of impoliteness.

Also, I note that I wouldn't have to be dealing with Mythical Jesus nonsense (etc.) in discussion with you. We can get down to the serious debate without wasting time.

However:

Could you set up the thing someone said where only we can post? It would be nice to have a real discussion rather than deal with drive-by clowns dropping one liners.

I'm only going to be posting sporadically, because of commitments**. If this doesn't work for you, or another Xian with time on their hands comes forward, feel free to not take me up.

Could you clarify the bit after the word “dead” in the title, because I'm not understanding it too well. Perhaps just replace it with a question mark?


**Since you ask, I'm trying to get a ministry going of getting limbs to grow back through the power of prayer. It's not going well.

By "dead", I mean a state of clinical death, something that a qualified paramedic and/or MD would note as being official.  As for limiting the debate to just you and me, the moderators would have to address that.  I will wait for them to do so before starting the new thread!  Thanks for taking up my offer!!

Until then...
