Arguments Against Thomistic philosophy

Posted this elsewhere on the forums:

It is circular reasoning to assess the likelihood of what is true by what you already think is likely to be true. Conjecture begets conjecture. And certainty has it's disciplines, for it hates knowing without decisive insight and proof. Escape this trap of Iblis, estimating what is likely to be true by what you already estimate likely to be true.

Good luck everyone.

I certainly am not an authority regarding reason, logic, morality or anything ..


WT-actual-F?  

Then why do you insist expressing yourself like Lorne Green narrating a nature documentary, as though everything out of your mouth was a pearl?

@Whatevs.
Because the demons have him under their dark magic.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

At least I fight them Khemikal and am trying to break free, instead of being their puppet.

Your sense of humor is dwarfed by the dark magic which you naturally will find funny for me to say as well. When the warnings of mockery of warnings are funny in themselves, then I don't think much can be done. 

It's irrational when what isn't sure to begin with, to assess what likely is true by the same conjecture, but you are so immersed in conjecture, that, not much can be done. It's circular reasoning to assess the likelihood of what is true by what you already think it likely to be true.

So find a means and seek a light, lad.

Magic heh? Dark even. You truly are in the deep end.

Also, stop shifting the burden of proof. You are the one with the claim that a god exists and you so far failed miserably to do so. Also, I believe you are warning others, how religion can keep someone with mental problems from reaching out for proper help.

Find the means and seek a proper doctor, 'man'.

@Mystic
That's what they want you to think, obviously. You seem very much like a puppet, to me. Repeating to us whatever they tell you, most of it lies so obvious that only dark magic could explain you believing it.

I proven time and time again.  It's true I do have burden proof, but that you guys if wanted to be presented, have the burden to listen and be truthful in your assessment.  Your denial of proofs when you come with such a playful attitude to this important question speaks volumes in itself of how irrational you are, let alone, if you can properly asses proofs anymore.

See, they have you thinking that you proved their lies, as if that were even possible.

You haven't. Me and many others told you so. Your own texts are word salads, stock full of nonsense. If your proofs were so good then I would have to accept them logically. They do not.

Another thing. Injectives only dishonor who write them. Your feeble attempt at insulting me failed in the form of laughter on my part. Try harder, why not call my mother a whore? And I will give you a lesson on the value of your words to me.
