Right?
If you would have read my old post about the NDEs you would have understood that is quite natural that a real NDE experience with God can not possibly be given to anyone.

What? So does that mean you will never become a necronaut? Let me guess you're also not worthy of god showing you NDE? Because you could find a doctor to put you into clinical death and you could step into that other world, explore it and then tell us all about it.

But of course there is always an excuse why people can't explore it and what you're doing is nothing new it's called ad hoc hypothesis. It is quite common in paranormal research and in the work of pseudo scientists. What people like you do is constantly create new hypothesis to explain away facts that seem to refute your belief or theory. Like ESP researchers have been known to blame the hostile thoughts of onlookers for unconsciously influencing pointer readings on sensitive instruments. "The hostile vibes", they say, made it impossible for them to duplicate a positive ESP experiment. Being able to duplicate an experiment is essential to confirming its validity. Of course, if this objection is taken seriously, then no experiment on ESP can ever fail.

So you just keep inventing bullshit excuses and in the meantime Ricky has a message for you:

To compare physical-material experiments with what God may or may not do is a total madness.

God can read in people mind so there is no need for mathematical resolution in which 1 + 1 must turn into 2.

We are all different so what is good for some can not possibly be good for other.  Lightbulb

Oxygen, for example. Good for me, so the rest of you can just bugger off.

I'm thinking there are more fertile fields for this purpose of yours. That whole mote/beam thing comes to mind.

I've been banned from theist and atheist forums alike, (I'm close to being banned from this one) if there is one thing they have in common it's the fact that they can't stand for anyone to point out the inconsistencies of their world veiw.

What inconsistencies did you show us? That the Bible flood happened - not so. It's the other way around we show you inconsistencies of your world view and you just ignore it.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

And that's why he keeps getting banned, he's too much of a jackass to see that he's wrong most of the time.

I doubt you'll be banned here ... but that wasn't the thrust of my post.

It's not a problem with the word if they're retarded.

No you're not.
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.'

There is a fiver in it for you if he gets banned. Think of it as a tithe of sorts. Big Grin
