Sin and the Blame Game

What you think it means, for one.
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, if we agree to meet at Starbucks in one hour, and you show up after 4...you're excuse would be; "it's all relative"?

I'm not implying that at all, humans have a standard of measuring time based on the rotation of the earth and it's revolution around the sun, but what if you were telling an alien from a different planet to meet you at starbucks? God isn't human, he is an eternal being so it's ridiculous to assume he measures time according to our standard. (June 18, 2017 at 8:56 pm)Cyberman Wrote: What you think it means, for one.

It's clear that you're prevaricating, if that's what you mean.
Now please explain your understanding of relative time.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I don't disagree with the scientific understanding of the concept, but I may disagree with yours. That's why I've been asking you to explain what you mean by relative time. I'm just trying to nail your trousers to the mast.

Quote:Let me ask you something, do you disagree with the statement "time is relative"? You are equivocating. The hideously complex concepts of time as discussed by cosmologists are not the concepts of time as espoused by fundie Christians.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

I don't think "time is a direction in four dimensional spacetime, so I am not late in my relativity" would cut any ice with my boss. Time is used as a standard measure all the time. a year is a year the world over. You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. |
