  • 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.

Based on what evidence?

Based on the fact that tuning requires activity and a desired result.

You wouldn't have to if you declare that the piano is in tune, no matter what sound it makes.

Declaring the piano in tune wouldn't make it in tune.

Where have you demonstrated this fact?

Declaring the piano in tune wouldn't make it in tune.

And yet that is exactly what you are doing. You are assuming that the universe was meant to be this way.

By the act of tuning a piano.

You're then declaring that there is no such thing as a piano being in tune. "Tuning" doesn't exist.

The universe is not a piano.

If you get to decide afterwards what "in tune" is, then any piano is in tune if you so declare it. Each and every piano will have a scale that is unique to that piano, and so it will be fine tuned to that scale.

Ask DogmaHunter, his big denial point is that fine tuning does indeed point to a tuner and so he denies fine tuning all together. :)

You deny that the lottery is fine tuned, even though I showed you that it is fine tuned using the same assumptions that you are making.

Again, tuning requires activity and a desired result.

Each and every piano is tuned according to a standard scale. By a tuner. With a desired result.
