Any truth that is "produced" is false truth. Truth cannot be "produced", it is just always true at all times, past, present, future no matter what.

If one has to "produce" a truth to make their argument, then clearly their argument is grounded on false truth, as you've clearly demonstrated here with your admission that you've "produced" this truth.

I just offered a "different way", by pointing out that your argument isn't grounded on the correct understanding of what truth should be and I clearly showed where your argument is faulty.

Now go find a new faulty way to rebuttal or accept that you're wrong.

Are you the end all be all in regards to what truth should be?

Can you demonstrate, in any objective way, that your God exists?
I am not God...so, no. But that is not what I was saying. What I said, is that God has demon-strated by creating the universe. Why don't you ask Him?

That you have to resort to semantic arguments show nothing but that you haven't anything worthwile to offer.

Replace "produce" with a term like "demonstrate" (bad style: that demonstration did not demonstrate what this demonstration was claimed to demonstrate)... or, say, "reveal". Or simply "show".

You demonstration does not "do" what you claim it does... or, otherwise, my demonstration does the same... resulting in a contradiction.

It is as simple as that.

Oh, I see, when you speak, it is to be declared, the truth.

That straightens everything out.

The truth has been spoken.

Matthew 11:15
"Whoever has ears, let them hear."

This is a Bible verse, because the truth can be found in the Bible.

"The world" is the inevitable result of the "existence" (for want of a better term) of primal chaos.

That the world exists is demonstration that this claim is correct.
That wasn't the question. Yes, the natural world is evidence of itself, but that only speaks of part of the "what" of the question. There is also the other [bigger] part of the "what", and then there is the "why." All of which is demon-strated in the existence of God.

Your explanation is lacking. That would be like explaining baseball and leaving out 2nd, 3rd, and home base. But, hey, I do realize you were only addressing the part you know about.

That the world exists is demonstration that this claim is correct.
And in that apparent chaos the has been orderly, purposive potential all throughout the forward progress of life.

So a third party observer should believe you over me because you claimed the contradicting truth was demonstrated to you, after I had already claimed the truth was demonstrated to me? Can we please remain reasonable here?

An honestly objective third party observer would rationally believe me over you.
