That's just it. I do understand what it is saying and if you will be honest you will also, see that if anything is irrational that is irrational. I understand God and His word very well. I know it is real. It's actually more rational to believe in God than not to.
I don't know what happened to you when you were 19 but you but you never were born again. You never really knew the Lord.
Well of course I didn't really know "the lord". I only
believed I did, just like you do; Just like George Harrison so certainly believed he knew Krishna. He spoke very much as you do, you know.
"If there's a God, I want to see Him. It's pointless to believe in something without proof, and Krishna Consciousness and meditation are methods where you can actually obtain GOD preception. You can actually see God, and Hear Him, play with Him. It might sound crazy, but He is actually there, actually with you."
Now how could you argue with that? Are you now going to tell me that he didn't really know his god either?
I have read many testimonies from ancient times and from the modern day of people's "personal knowledge" and spiritual communion with Buddha, Muhammad, Ahura-Mazda, Guru Nanak, and the spirits of dead friends, lovers, and relatives. All of them claim confident knowledge of absolute truth, yet all of them cannot be correct. Would you tell me they're all deceived and only you know the real way?
Belief in God = belief in magic. You literally believe you can make dreams become matter if you could just make yourself believe it enough. You rave with disturbing lunacy wild ranting nonsense which cannot be justified. I find it disorienting as any sensible person would when surrounded by sycophants suffering from Orwellian dementia; "rationalism is irrational", "faith is reason", "intelligence is stupid", "gullability is wisdom", and "assuming your own subjective emotional conclusions for no reason counts as evidence".
Its all madness. Sanity is often defined as being rational, to be able to reason logically and to be reasoned with. But faith is irrational, illogical, unreasonable, and insane by definition.
To believe that things mutate or become deformed and then become superior is illogical.
Unless we can prove that it happens, and we can prove that the "deformity" happens to work better.
it's illogical to believe a lie.
And yet you do. And you know you do too; or else you would have answered my question in post # 256.
We both know why you can't. Its because we both know that the creationism movement is based entirely on falsehoods and deliberately dishonest propaganda. None of you cares for the truth if it is not what you wish it to be. That's why there has never been a single credible proponent of evangelical creationism anywhere ever. Because
(with only one notable exception) everyone who has ever published anti-evolutionary rhetoric to any medium did so only according to a prior religious agenda rather than any amount of scientific comprehension. They’ve all revealed inexcusable ignorance in the very fields where they claim expertise, and their arguments are all dependant on erroneous assumptions, prejudicial bias, logical fallacies, ridiculous parody, misdefined terms, misquoted authorities, distorted data, fraudulent figures, or out-and-out lies. Nor has there ever been a single argument in favor of creationism which was verifiably accurate. Every claim creationists ever make in this debate falls into one of two categories; those things which can never be either vindicated or disproved, and those things which have already been disproved.
I really can't continue trying to reason with someone who believes the voices in her head belong to demons and shadow spirits, and who can only vainly attempt to project her own faults onto those who have already rid ourselves of them, and will not bare them again.
