• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Definition, faith and postulation cannot instantiate Him.What evidence theists put forth is a misunderstanding of the evidence so they never put forth evidence!
Presuppositionalists and Alvin Plantinga beg the question of presuppositonalism and warrant.

By the way, am I too opaque or ornate or nearly so but you still fathom my comments?

http://gnuatheist.tumblrcarneades.posterous.com.com Science finds no absolute beginning of the Metaverse, and per Reichenbach's argument from Existence, as it is all, nothing exists outside it, and as transcendence contradicts omnipresence, He could not be transcendent anyway.
And per the Coyne-Mayr-Lamberth teleonomic argument He'd not have intent behind or in the Metaverse anyway, so as the Grand Miracle Monger, the Creator and so forth, He'd lack those intents. Thus as omni-God or limited God, He could not exist, and having incoherent,contradictory attributes, again He couldn't exist, thereby affirming the ignostic-Ockham.
Had He that divine intent, then He'd be a seconday cause to the inherent chaos,regularity, order and natural laws inherent in the Meaverse. Supernaturalists ever try to invert the that! All their arguments fail.
And per the arguments from physical mind and McComick's argument why He cannot think, again He couldn't have intent much less exist.
He becomes then that circle that supernaturalists never can square or that bachelor they cannot claim as married He functions no more than demons and gremlins. He bespeaks the perpetual motion machine!
After eons, without any evidence and misinterpretations for evidence, then here as VictorStenger observes and in line with Charles Moore's auto-epistemic argument, absence of evidence is indeed evidence of absence and thus no argument from ignorance!
Dave, indeed. Why, people could also pray to the dog, receiving the same non-response as with Him! TheologyWeb would be an excellent site for you!
