So according your demented idea nothing that is not physical can exist because our senses can not grasp hold of them.
You see how demented you are? Shifting of the burden of proof and argument from ignorance. Your lack of understanding of the physical world is not evidence for a spiritual world.
Wait a minute sur.
You are totally changing the subject.
You said that the mind is NOT abstract.
I sort of asked you.......well if it is not abstract than we can touch, smell, see it and so on.
Instead of admitting your failure you keep on coming up with your usual rosary about the burden of proof.
What burden of proof?
You are the one who declare that the mind is not abstract not me so eventually it is you that got to come up with evidence.
But let me go a bit further.
The reason why i was asking you about whether the mind is abstract or not was because as you can not get grasp of the mind in a physical way you also could not get grasp of anything else that is not physical in a physical way including an hypothetical God.
Unfortunately you (as usual ) got lost with your (NOT ![Smile Smile](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/smile.gif) ) abstract mind.

Nothing new son.

Quote:There is only one reason you care about, does it agree to with your already concluded reality or not.
Sur. I am, pointing out your failing.
The more you evade my point by changing arguments and coming up with your usual rosary about the burden of proof you just keep on sinking in the quick sands more and more.
The only way out the mental mess in which you are is to admit your failing and change attitude. Nothing else will do.
Quote:So in the first case you may well say that the burden of prove is on me but in the next statement you DECLARE something and a declaration always require evidence.
Quote:You mean how I point out that testimonials are not evidence and give the UFO's as an example. So the testimonials coming from NDE's, magic crystals, or UFOs are all the same, they are NOT EVIDENCE.

Quote:I never declare that NDEs are real.
I always said that i believe that NDEs are real and that make a big big difference.
Quote:So stop referring to NDE's when I ask for evidence. Where is your evidence?
The reason why i say........I BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE REAL instead of saying THEY ARE REAL is because materialistic people pretend physical evidence about something that is not physical.
Even if evidence is there it wouldn't make any sense to anyone which outlook is only materialistic-physical.
As far as you keep on pretending physical evidence of something that is not physical than the clash will always be there.
Above i just show you how stupid is to pretend physical evidence of an abstract entity like the mind.
NDEs follow the same pattern.
And so God.

Until an expert or an inventor come up with something new and more advanced we are left with this technology with this knowledge.
As the technologies and the discover change also the dictionaries are bound to change in order to keep up with the change so there can not be any differences between one another.

Your false statement, "According to the laws of this universe if you insert a knife into your flesh you are bound to feel pain."
It is false because it doesn't account for the possibility of dead nerve endings or the people are just ignoring the pain. You'll be a moron to claim you cannot kill nerve endings, but I wouldn't be surprise if you do. You'll be a moron to claim people cannot ignore pain because I ignored headaches, knee scrapes, back aches, etc... So your argument is invalid because it ignores there obvious explanations.

Sarkar instead said that the reason why they gave the name crab or cancer to this disease is because in the old times when somebody had a terminal cancer they would feel similar pain as when a crab bait and eat your flesh considering that in the old time they did not have powerful painkillers as the morphine.
You see surgen how the explanation can be so different one another.

Quote:Well pigeon, do you not understand that you have millions of nerve cells. So nerves cells that died in a local region, doesn't prevent them from growing back or getting killed again. When did I say ALL the nerve cells died?
You are getting lost mate.
Let us stick to these guys.
Before and after this festival their nerves were normal.
Normal in the way that they were feeling pain if a knife is inserted into their flesh but during the festival it all change and they are immune of pain.
So how do you explain this sur?
This is food for thoughts sur so see if you can come up with something that make any sense. ![Hi Hi](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/hi.gif) ![Demon Demon](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/demon.gif)

I do present to you my deep deep apologies for even mentioning your name.
But let me express my feeling.
I HAD A DREAM.
I dream that maybe one day i may climb the ladder of mental evolution so i can become an administrator like you so i can ask the same question again and again even if the answer has already been given.
Now i am not allow to do that myself but i always dream that one day i may do that.
Sorry again for being a nuisance.

Quote:Quote:So you believe the physical world cannot understand it because you yoga says it. Can you spell circular reasoning, another logical fallacy.
Not at all sur.
I believe that the physical world can not understand the spiritual world because the spiritual world created the physical in the first place.
You forgot to add "because yoga says so."
Quote:Quote:Definitions change over time. You still have to use the definitions of words to commute properly, not make up some other meaning for them. Or do you prefer to not communicate your ideas?
I am glad that you say that..........Definitions change over time.
It is a big change compared to your old dogma that definitions are sort of true things because they come from a dictionary.
But again you are still stuck in the dogma when you say that we should not change them (if needed).
Your avoidance of using current or even older definitions shows you don't know how to communicate your ideas.
Quote:Quote:That is why you are deluded. Unlike Sarkar, the dictionary has no agenda. Its only job is to show what are the current meaning of words are.
Garbage.
Those who created or change the meaning of the words had an agenda.
Society decides what the definitions are. The dictionary only writes them down. If you want to go against society, then there is a white padded room waiting for you.
Quote:Quote:No, you start of with models, and compare the models, evolve the model to make it more accurate, and then build your contraption.
I just can't believe this sur.
Your bla bla bla just agree with my above thought so what's the point in bla bla bla?
Analogies are not models. A model is much more refined.
Quote:Quote:Your "answers" are riddled with fallacies. Any simple analysis of them shows how easily they crumble. Yet, you restate the same logically flawed statements thinking this time they will not have so many flaws.
Not at all sur.
If my statement is a fallacy than you should show that it is by telling me that the baby can understand what is inside his father mind.
You don't therefore is you that fail not me. ![Smile Smile](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Your rebuttal is even stupider. I don't agree with your inaccurate analogies, and definitely not the conclusions you reach from them.
Quote:Quote:Several times now. You only need to scroll back through the pages.
I scroll back i scroll again but i can not see anything that make sense among your posts. ![Smile Smile](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I can respond to your nonsense, but I can't fix your stupidity.
Quote:Quote:Pointing out your flawed statements is part of the discussion. When you fix your logical errors, then I'll start answering your questions. Otherwise, I'm not interested on answering your when-did-you-stop-beating-your-wife type questions.
Flawed statements?
Actually i usual say...........I BELIEVE IN THAT..........or i say...ACCORDING TO YOGA AND SO ON.
Which make as true as the pink-invisible-robot-hybrid-unicorn.

You cannot prove any of this. You just wish it to be true.

Yoga give results so by getting results you can say whether it make sense or not.
You never tried the real yoga so you are NOT in a position to judge.
End of the story.

If you judge by my bad English than i may understand why you think so but i am sure that even if my English would be perfect you still would find something wrong with what i write.
Sorry pal if i can't make you happy but life may be a bit though when you go against mother nature.
That is your problem not mine.

Wrong again pal.
If someone wouldn't have gone against the main stream there wouldn't be life on earth or we still would be living in caves.
The jails in the countries under dictatorship are full of political prisoners and not only in the places under dictatorship.
People who came up with new ideas are always persecuted but at the end the reason prevail.
Just look at you guys.
In same places atheists are persecuted just because they go against the main stream.
Soon or later however there will be freedom of choosing and nobody will bother you anymore but to achieve this you will have to go against the mainstream.
They may even put you in ........white padded room.
Quote:Analogies are not models. A model is much more refined.
Analogies lead to improvements so it is irrelevant whether they are models or not.

End of the story. ![Smile Smile](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/smile.gif) Christians would claim the same thing about christianity. I don't believe them for the same reason I don't believe yoga. Yoga's results, like christianity's, are indistinguishable from wishful thinking. All these religions, including yoga, all claim an improved life, but an improved life is not the indicator of what is true. Reality might be very depressing, but your insistence that life must bring you satisfaction is the beginning of your flaws. The rest is garbage that follows that premise.

I have bad english skills as well (as some grammar nazi's will point out). However, it is not your english I'm questioning. It is the definitions of words you want to use. I demand an agreed upon definitions because I don't like it when people try to define their belief as truth. I don't know if you would do such a thing, but I'm not going to give you a chance to do so.

Save your over simplistic view of how the world changes. The world changes mainly because someone was able to CONVINCE the rest of society to follow. All you been doing is spreading flawed arguments that are not convincing anyone here.

You clearly never studied any real science. I don't know how else to point out how wrong you are about analogies vs models and what scientist and engineers actually use.

There is too many wrong assumptions in your previous statement. I don't want to write a paragraph about it so that you wont read it.
Quote:Quote:You cannot prove any of this. You just wish it to be true.

Why don't you go yourself there and see that so you can have a good reason to believe?
You mean you witness them sticking stuff in their cheeks. You don't know if there nerves (that are in their cheeks) are already dead; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if they are just ignoring the pain; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if they are anesthesia; you assumed they weren't. You don't know if there is a neurological reason on why they seem to feel no pain; you assumed there wasn't. To many assumptions on your end to justify your claim.
