My FTS Challenge

[Chesterton]

Are you serious? Or joking?

Yeah I don't like soggy tarts. Unless that translates differently in English. I don't want to offend anyone.

 

[Kylie]

Breath = width.
BREADTH
bredth (rochabh, the root idea being to make wide, spacious):

It could also refer to the area.

Tell that to AV, he thinks that breadth is a fourth spatial dimension.

"The world isn't perfect, therefore Evolution is Wrong!" Sounds like a Poe to me...

I'd love to see you eat food dry.

 

[Chesterton]

I'd love to see you eat food dry.

Well that's just the tip of the ice cube. I'm reminded of Pandora, a girl I went to school against.

Finish this sentence, please:

If evolution is true, then why _______________ ?

Why is there such a cognitive gap between humans and other species? Yes, I know they can use sticks to fish out bugs, but we are exploring the outer reaches of the universe and communicating instantaneously around the globe.

 

[Mobezom]

...er, that question doesn't make any sense. It's hard to attain self-consciousness. It makes sense that only one species would develop it at any given time.

Remember, cheap mass-produced ants are rather effective - larger brains are a hindrance in some situations. Evolution doesn't have a long-term goal, it only does what is best here and now.

Sorry I don't know if you were replying to my post, so maybe this doesn't apply. But I think a cognitive rift is a "question that makes sense", as do evolutionary scientists.

I was responding to you, sorry.

Your claim appeared to be "If there's evolution, there should be multiple sapient species," which... is pretty much false. Cognition is a very interesting field, but it doesn't disprove evolution. Of course, I could just be misinterpreting you...

Finish this sentence, please:

If creationism is true, then why _____________ ?

First I need to change the adverb to a pronoun:

If creationism is true, then who created the creator?

 

[AV1611VET]

If creationism is true, then who created the creator?

No one.

God is self-existent.

 

[Subduction Zone]

No one.

God is self-existent.

You do realize that we could say the same about the universe. And while we have clear cut evidence that the universe exists the evidence for any gods is still lacking.

 

[AV1611VET]

You do realize that we could say the same about the universe.

I do ... and it's a ... well ... not well thought-out reply.

If it's true, then what happened to the universe that God made in six days?

Are you saying there are two universes?

And while we have clear cut evidence that the universe exists the evidence for any gods is still lacking.

First of all, the Bible says He is invisible ... and that means He is ... well ... invisible.

Second of all, science is myopic.

Thirdly, even if He wasn't invisible, what is His name?

If I wanted to find the Loch Ness Monster, I wouldn't be asking around about Big Foot.

 

[Kylie]

Way to completely ignore what I said.

Saliva serves a very important purpose. Several, actually.

But if you don't like it because it wets your food, trying eating a sandwich without it.

 

[Kylie]

No one.

God is self-existent.

The universe is self-existent.

Prove me wrong.

 

[Kylie]

If it's true, then what happened to the universe that God made in six days?

What happened to the universe where Harry Potter can do magic?

Your god-made, six day universe is a myth, nothing more.

 

[Paul Finch]

First of all, the Bible says He is invisible ... and that means He is ... well ... invisible.

Is that the same invisibility given to things that do not exist? I've heard that pixies and leprechauns use invisibility quite a lot.

 

[AV1611VET]

What happened to the universe where Harry Potter can do magic?

Your god-made, six day universe is a myth, nothing more.

So much for your self-existent universe then, if you have to invoke Harry Potter and evict God.

 

[[serious]]

So much for your self-existent universe then, if you have to invoke Harry Potter and evict God.

How do you evict Brahma?

 

[Chesterton]

Way to completely ignore what I said.

Thank you, Kylie. (May I call you KTS?) In the face of evolution I try to remain good-Natured, and as I said, I don't want to offend anyone. Evolutionary scientists make this stuff called powdered milk, it's very dry and I can barely drink it. Still, we don't discriminate based on race, color or cream, so what prima facie looked to be a statement of fact (although it did not do the looking, it was actually the thing looked at) I understood as colloquialism, and for various reasons legal and moral I deemed it prudent for all concerned to ignore what you said. Fetishes are, heartbreakingly, not mine for the inducing.
