Why knocking is so important.

That's the point though, isn't it Drich? You have to check your bible to interpret your warm fuzzies, because there's no other framework in which you can distort your experiences to get a preconceived answer. You've made AiG's mission statement your personal mantra: no evidence can be accepted if it runs counter to the bible. You don't worship a god; you worship a book. Which is doubly sad, given what book it is.

This statement can only be true if God offered you nothing. I haven't received an offer from God.

Luke 11 applies to you as well.

Irrelevant. God has still not offered me anything.

You know, Drich. Back when I was still trying to believe the bullshit I got down on my knees and fucking begged for a sign.

Got crickets.

Your a/s/k bullshit works just fine for people who already harbor belief. For people who've realized it's all bullshit, not so much. You trolling a/s/k isn't going to change anything. It pure bullshit, just like the rest of that book of voodoo you cling to so desperately.

So basically, what we're saying is A/S/K is great for confirming what you already know or want to be true. Not so much for actually determining truth in the first place.

What post number?

25. I asked quite clearly what the limits were to this test of yours, so that it could be falsified, and your response was to just compare the search for god with the search for a wife, despite the fact that we can all confirm that women exist, and when asked exactly how long one should persist with whatever it is you want us to do, you just said "god is infinite."

[FatAndFaithless]

The whole process of A/S/King presumes a god to exist in the first place. It's just another horseshit ploy.

I'll throw in a free anecdote to illustrate that point.

A few years ago, a young lady of my acquaintance found herself being assessed by social services with a view to removing her young son into the care system, and thence adoption. I was heavily involved and in fact wrote my own report on their report, highlighting all their gross distortions and omissions (got commended by her solicitor for it, too).

Anyway, after the assessment workers had delivered their report, we had many heated discussions over the phone with the social workers and guardian. They would point to something in the report which said that the assessors had witnessed such and such. I would immediately point out that the assessors were wrong and the report was misleading, and present evidence why. The response was just to point to another part of the report. Try as we might, we just couldn't get through to them that it's pointless justifying a report, false or otherwise, with another part of the same report.

Because unless you know what's causing it your car could breakdown.

The whole process is designed to make an idiot think idiocy makes him smart.

Maybe you should go back click on the like I provided for messenger/ message, you seem to be lost-y

Sorry, but is it really worth my time? No it's not.
You can just ignore that comment from me then, I must have been confused by whatever you said. I didn't click the like. I always wonder why you call it that. Is it an auto correct glitch?

God himself has never offered me anything. Not ever. So I don't know what this offer you got from god is, but I didn't get it. Can you give me some advice on how I should go about asking, seeking, and knocking? I apparently did it wrong before.
