• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

How did I come to that conclusion? A combination of personal experiences and thinking about it.

But your absolute for good and evil was your own scale. Seems biased.

Why would it be in trouble. Also I never meant existence of a photon. I said would there be evidence for a photon if there was no object to hit?

Does the answer matter if no such situation could possibly exist?

Could or ever? You then are claiming a constant.

A object of mass has always been, and since you require energy of some sort photons were also constant. This is the Big Bang. Theory or Hypothesis?

That would make us prideful, selfish, and arrogant. Seems to me those are not exactly a picture of Mother Threasa?

God has to be eternal. God is the constant in the equation of life. Science proves that a constant is required, but don't claim to know what; or does it?

God has to be eternal.
Why?
God is the constant in the equation of life.
God is a number?
Is God between 1 and 10? Maybe god is Pi?!
Science proves that a constant is required, ...
Where is this constant required and where and how was this constant reported? Can you show the equation or formula where the constant appears? Or are you just emitting halitosis?
... but don't (doesn't?) claim to know what; or does it?
If that is so, then why are fairies and unicorns blue? (From a nonsense premise you can deduce anything. It is called "reductio ad absurdum", and your post is nothing if not absurd.

:doh:

Look, photons are produced by atoms. The existence of atoms is independent however of the existence of photons in the sense that atoms can exist without creating photons. Therefore, trying to devise some theoretical situation of photons without any mass for them to collide with is nonsense, because they can't exist without atoms, but there isn't a dilemma, because atoms can exist without photons.

I would like to know why you think that? since when has telling the truth not helped in the long run?

Because to be frank, you told it in a rather rude way. Just because we are atheists doesn't mean we have to call the beliefs of others stupid or nonsense.

That's exactly what I was doing, being frank.
Surly that would depend on whether the beliefs are stupid and nonsense wouldn't it? belief without evidence is stupid.

Treating stupid claims as if they are stupid claims should surly be the norm, why beat around the bush?
Would you say that telling us they have an invisible friend is insulting our intelligence? they don't think twice about offending us but we must always consider their feelings, why is that? people talking to them as if they are stupid and they don't understand must surly be even more offensive to them, we know they think like children but there is no need to speak to them like children.

They can't even tell us what it is they actually believe because they don't know themselves so why shouldn't we tell them?

Your God exists only in your head, that's as constant as it will get until you stop believing then your God will be no more.

If God was based on human belief that wouldn't make him God.
