Atlantis Found

[Bungle_Bear]

Mark 4:12

"they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding"

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is. - Bhagavad-Gita

 

[JohnEmmett]

But ignorant and faithless persons who doubt the revealed scriptures do not attain God consciousness; they fall down. For the doubting soul there is happiness neither in this world nor in the next.

Yeah, you obviously missed the point. No surprise there.

The slightest of all the results coming from harsh speech is that … it leads to unappealing sounds.

So?

You remain incapable of providing any good reason why anyone should accept your claims. Posting Bible passages about how some people can see but not perceive doesn't mean you are right, and it doesn't make your baseless claims about Atlantis true. Again, I will say that if you want to convince people, you must provide good evidence. Provide that, and I will believe ANYTHING you say.

 

[JohnEmmett]

you must provide good evidence. Provide that, and I will believe ANYTHING you say.

let's wait for evidence


meanwhile, I'm aware…

 

[JohnEmmett]

what is evidence?


other than the ruins of Atlantis itself…

 

[Kylie]

You're aware of what?

what is evidence?


other than the ruins of Atlantis itself…

And you have not demonstrated that anything you have presented is the ruin of Atlantis.

 

[JohnEmmett]

You're aware of what?

you wouldn't ask for evidence if you had faith

 

[Tinker Grey]

you suffer from doubt

you wouldn't ask for evidence if you had faith

You say that like faith is a good thing.

 

[JohnEmmett]

You say that like faith is a good thing.

faith is a muscle


weakness isn't good

 

[Tinker Grey]

faith is a muscle


weakness isn't good

Faith is not a muscle. It is believing without evidence. (Heb 11:1) That's gullibility. It has no place in science.

 

[JohnEmmett]

Faith is not a muscle. It is believing without evidence.

I don't believe without evidence


I believe and the evidence is there


you doubt and the evidence isn't there

 

[Tinker Grey]

Evidence isn't magicked into existence because you believe.

 

[JohnEmmett]

Evidence isn't magicked into existence because you believe.

yes, it is

take the example of Atlantis

 

[Bungle_Bear]

yes, it is

take the example of Atlantis

Seems like you're admitting to making up evidence. That's progress.

 

[JohnEmmett]

Seems like you're admitting to making up evidence. That's progress.

I admit Atlantis is found

 

[Kylie]

you wouldn't ask for evidence if you had faith

Faith is unreliable. People had faith that heavy things would fall faster than light things. People had faith that the sun went around the Earth. People had faith that the world was flat. People have faith in lots of things that turn out to be wrong.

 

[Kylie]

I don't believe without evidence


I believe and the evidence is there


you doubt and the evidence isn't there

From where I sit, it seems like you believe and then you just decide that whatever agrees with your position is evidence.

I used to be that way. I would even distort, or make up evidence. I mainly did it to entertain my friends with "Tales of Mystery". I was only nine at the time, so perhaps there was some excuse.
