• 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.

Mathematically Speaking?

Care to elaborate a bit more on that maybe?

I'm not talking about multiples, but just one for now, etc.

A single solitary choice in this example, etc.
That's where you go completely off the rails and I don't have a clue where you're coming from (and I suspect you don't either).

My post #79 gave two conditions where both a 100% and 0% probability numbers could be assigned 'simultaneously' .. take it or leave it.

I'm talking about 100% and something other than 0%.

And I meant I'm not talking about multiple instances where there could be two possibilites, which is where I might have confused you, because you confused me, which is why I asked you to elaborate.

God Bless.

If there is an all-knowing God, or entity, or being, or whatever, etc, then how could He/She/It not know all things, and yet also at the very same time, also know all things with 100% absolute certainty at the same time, etc?
I'm not interested in hypotheticals...
If there is any such being, then all those other probabilities/possibilities cannot exist, etc.

At least, not in this universe anyway, etc.

And that is the main point I am trying to make here, etc.
... and I don't really care.

As for the rest of your restatement: This is, as far as I can tell, just a restatement of standard arguments from philosophy. I suspect they've done it more clearly already.

Me neither!

Its a double triple(?) whammy hypothetical, what's more!

I mean: since when does a probability/possibility exist, (regardless of the existence of an untestable, non-hypothetical believed-in being), eh?

Here is that other thread.


If you want to talk about "time", let's please put them all there, etc.

Much thanks.

Take Care/God Bless.
