Oh, man ---
REPETITION, Repetition, repetition, repetition ... ad infinitum
Yep because you never give a straight answer to that question...
why should anyone take what the bible says seriously, for you it's an apriory because of your faith but that does not make it evidence.
AV said:Indeed.
AV said:There's a big difference though. Thor doesn't have nearly the backing that God does.
Popularity is not indicative of truth.AV said:Where are Thor's followers?
Another irrelevance.AV said:What nation was built around Thor's written words?
Doesn't matter. What matters is that saying God exists, and is beyond evidence is no different in the slightest than saying Thor, or Odin or the Flying Spaghetti Monster exist and are beyond evidence.AV said:This earth has seen two superpowers emerge, both collectively claiming the existence of Jehovah --- and both in existence and going strong today. Can Thor top that?
You've yet to demonstrate that what the Bible claims is true. So what if the Bible asserts that God exists? How do we know that the Bible is true?AV said:[insert picture of Bible]
Fine --- then keep asking the same questions --- and we'll keep giving you the same answers. Fair enough?
Glad you have it. *sigh*It's called faith.
Either I don't really know you or I'm hoping against hope that you'll descend from the lofty heights of your faith and answer my questions.You're another example of someone who doesn't really know me. Almost every time someone asked me this, I came back with a pic of the Bible. I got so tired of doing that, that I eventually stopped, and started just saying that God is transcendent of physical evidence, which He is.
So Hitler was right after all?
There's a big difference though. Thor doesn't have nearly the backing that God does.
- Where are Thor's followers?
- What nation was built around Thor's written words?
Which two? US and....? Russia? China?This earth has seen two superpowers emerge, both collectively claiming the existence of Jehovah --- and both in existence and going strong today. Can Thor top that?
Makes more sense for you to give a proper answer and I'll stop asking the question. I think it would make it easier on everyone.
If you claim God is transcendent of physical evidence then don't come and say that the Bible is evidence for God or creation or whatever. Be at least consistent with yourself.
No, I'm not like Mother Theresa. I, at least, am sincere and not a hypocrite.Wow, man. You're like Mother Theresa or something. I weep thinking of the good you do.
You constantly suggest abandoning science - whenever it doesn't agree with your religious beliefs. As you do in the example you cite here:I never suggest abandoning science; rather I always suggest that the data be reinterpreted to align itself to what the Bible says.
Never mind what the evidence states, you're happy to just ignore it (abandoning science) where it conflicts with your religious beliefs. Thanks for providing us with this excellent example of you doing it.I'll even throw in my favorite example for about the third time, just to show you I'm a nice guy:Now the Bible's take on it:
- "Evidence" says the Egyptians existed before the Flood.
- The Egyptians still exist today.
- Therefore the Flood was not a global flood.
- Since the Egyptians came from Mizraim, who was Noah's grandson, the Egyptians came after the Flood, not before it.
- The Egyptians still exist today.
- And the Flood was a global flood, as depicted in the Bible.
If only creationists would take this advice.Then he should shut up and wait for his elders and betters to speak.
My bad.You are way more awesome than Mother Theresa!! You are like the awesomists!!!No, I'm not like Mother Theresa. I, at least, am sincere and not a hypocrite.
But for the record, and I don't know how many times I've said this before
we hold science up to a higher Standard than atheists do.
I never suggest abandoning science; rather I always suggest that the data be reinterpreted to align itself to what the Bible says.
If you think so.My bad.You are way more awesome than Mother Theresa!! You are like the awesomists!!!
Yet another Catholic who doesn't think. Why are there Catholics on this section of the forum the last thing we need is a bunch of people saying we don't know whether evolution is true because we haven't thought about it and we don't plan on it. I truthfully have never met a Catholic who has thought at all about their religion. I'm not saying there aren't any just usally they don't care. I think there's a larger chance that all Catholics are actually machines comprised by the illuminati to confuse people then Creationism (I'm dead serious not trying to be funny). Any person who has used "awesomeists"(I don't even know how to pronounce that word I would assume it's a typo but I don't know what the typo would be in this context) has never had a thought in their life.My bad.You are way more awesome than Mother Theresa!!
