[QUOTE="secondtimearound, post: 60366557, member: 239233"] Of course they do. They affect the way we percieve reality and we interact with reality so they absolutley have an effect on reality. For example the fact that other minds exist is part of reality and how I interact with other minds effects that reality. I don't think you have any idea how hypocritical this statement is. One, you are are a person posting on CF. Two, you believe your beliefs to be true. Three, you are asuming their beliefs to be false which means you think you're beliefs are true. You are doing the very thing you accuse the people on here of doing without realizing that you yourself are the people on here. This is a textbook example of special pleading. Jesus said it best, "Take the plank out of your eye before you talk about the speck in your brothers". That was the whole point of my previous post. The only way to form a belief that is properly basic is through experience and as Christians we expereince the transforming power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Not to mention what we experience in prayer and in worship. Our lives are a testimony to the reality that God exists, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that His Holy Spirit resides in us. You can take this question to another part of the board if you like, only Christians post here to answer your questions. I don't make the rules. [/QUOTE]
