Good point, thank you. But, why something is true only if you touch it or see it?That makes two of us.
Evidence is anything that dictates to an empiricist what he should believe, or what he should reject.
Good question.Good point, thank you. But, why something is true only if you touch it or see it?
L's and IPU's are gods, are they?
I don't know.How about Allah in the Quran?
See, that's the thing... every argument you give to support your own belief can be used, completely unchanged, to support any other (mutually exclusive) belief.
I don't know.
I haven't read the Quran.
As I understand it, Allah is the primary deity of the Quraysh tribe, from which Mohammad came from.
Its symbol was a star and crescent moon.
We believe that the completion of the Scriptures in AD 96 put an end to divine prophets.
Thus anyone such as Mohammad or Joseph Smith claiming to be a prophet of God is doctrinally dismissed.
It's belief that got me saved in the first place.Indeed. Which is my entire point. "you believe that...."
And you believe because "you believe" because "you believe" because....
You just want to believe.
It's belief that got me saved in the first place.
Without it, I would be on my way to Hell.
So what's your problem with our belief? Why are you here if you don't like it or you think we are pathethic for our beliefs? We are struggling to reach Heaven, not you. Why would you spend so much time fighting a God that doesn't exist for you?You being in need of any saving at all is part of your belief.
Typical snake oil salesman.
First, the religion requires you to believe that you are sick. It never gives any evidence of this illness - it just asserts it and you just have to believe it.
Then, it conveniently provides the "only" cure - which you also just need to believe.
Straight from the con-man's handbook on how to make money off off people's gullibility...

I'm a christian and no one makes money because of my beliefs, no one is in advantage for it.
Scientists, on the other hand, claiming to be of an elite culture called the "wise men," are actually blind.
Nowadays, for some, it comes with a price.Scientists are the ones who spend their time trying to figure out how certain aspects of the universe work, scratching their heads to try and figure out problems and usually end up producing knowledge of technology to improve civilisation.
Scientist are just another name for human. It's totally human to try to figure out how things work and to try to find meaning behind everything in life.
Scientist is mostly used to imply one group of people are smarter than others so they can have a monopoly of knowledge.
Don't they dictate industry standards though?Scientist are just another name for human. It's totally human to try to figure out how things work and to try to find meaning behind everything in life.
Scientist is mostly used to imply that one group of people are smarter than others so they can have a monopoly on knowledge. I'm not dismissing the fact each person has a field they are good at.

Right down to rewriting the dictionary after rigging a vote on issues?
They claim they follow "consensus of opinion," but the Pluto issue shows they will find other means of pushing their agenda if they have to.
Intelligence may fool us, but try to get past a creationist looking wise.It's not that hard to look intelligent when you are being compared to creationists.

They no doubt stack the deck to make themselves look more intelligent that they really are. Ex: Albert Einstein according to history was a dead beat dad. Then go read what some says about the Duggars family.Don't they dictate industry standards though?

If that was true, why did they have to rig the vote?Unfortunately, AV doesn't like the agenda where scientists want to use a more accurate model of the solar system.
