I knew from the beginning that it would be quite difficult for an atheist to understand how the whole system works but i realize it takes time.
We all have to go through the basic before we can understand bigger things.
After the magic box and his contents i will expect that somebody come up with the evidence that the space exist or similar things from a materialistic point of view.
To demonstrate something that is well away from the matter it takes a good amount of consciousness and to build up this consciousness one has got to exit the materialistic dogmas,
In other words you are all excused considering your situation. Smile

And yet again, more nonsense.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

Some people here say that in order to find out what is in the box you got to open it up.
That appear the only way to find out.
I would have thought that if i am in love with somebody whether is a physical person or we are dealing with spiritual love it would be a bit difficult to demonstrate that that love is real and that reality is real.
But maybe i am totally wrong and i will have to follow these people advise so i have no choice but to open the box to see if that love is real.
At this stage i am unwilling to open my box as i am quite busy with my commitment so i do need a volunteer to help with this task.
I only have to open their own box (in this case their chest cage) and go to inspect their heart to see if love is there or not (concrete evidence).
I promise that i will do this job very professionally and no pain will be felt.
Thanks for your help. Worship (large)

Couldn't you think of anything more stupid to post than this?

I speak idiot. His point is that claiming you have to open a box to know what is in it is like claiming you have to perform open heart surgery on someone to know if they love you. That love isn't actually located in the heart is the smallest error Enrico makes.

The fundamental error is that no one here claims that the only way to know what is in a box is to open it. For example, you could x-ray it, sonogram it, weigh it, rattle it, check it for labels, and so on. Those things can give enough evidence to justify reasonable conclusions about what's inside, just like a loved one's behavior can justify reasonable conclusions about whether he or she loves you.

The problem isn't that we can't open the box that represents God in Enrico's scenario, it's that there is no box to examine at all.

Exactly; all those methods of investigation will yield the results that Rico's insistence on simply guessing about the box's contents will never do.

On that same note, I'm wondering whether a scan of Rico's brain would actually reveal anything there at all?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

So, you state a load of nonsense and then claim superiority because things are explained to you in a way you don't want to understand them.

How typically religious of you.

Gee, is that true? Thinking
Now i will have to find out where love is generated from.Smile
Somebody here say that love is a chemical reaction.
But what about the glands that control our life?
At every step of the spinal cord a particular gland control a particular thing or factor.
The pituary gland is controlling the mind not the liquid or solid factors.
At the same time the glands controlling the solid, liquid, energy or air factors are not controlling the mind so there has got to be a place where good feeling like love is coming from.
Unlike the solid factors love is a non physical factor so it will be a bit difficult to be grasped by a physical approach.
What i would like to know from you considering that you seem to be expert in these things is.........IF LOVE IS NOT GENERATED IN THE HEART IS PERHAPS GENERATED IN THE BACKSIDE? Thinking
