Yeah, can't have an analogy that actually is analogous to the situation. That would be so silly.
Better to have your botched analogies that have nothing to do with the real-world equivalent situation.

Yeah, can't have an analogy that actually is analogous to the situation. That would be so silly.I read the first sentence, then when I saw "let's further the analogy" in the second sentence --- that was it.
I didn't even grade it.
I don't know how I'd convince somebody of that. They probably wouldn't believe me if I showed them your ex nihilo apple. I probably wouldn't even believe that you truly did it ex nihilo, like others have said I'd want to know how you did it.I create an apple ex nihilo into the palm of your hand.
What evidence would you use to convince your friend I did this?
Hey Loudmouth, since you used an oversized and only vaguely relevant picture, by the laws of Dadism, chapter 2, paragraph 6, you win the argument!
As one of the few surviving apostles testifying to Dad's physical presence among us, long ago, I, Thaumaturgy, formerly Saul of Escondido, can vouch for Fishface's decree.
So Let it Be Written. So Let it Be Done.
Loudmouth wins the debate as per that which we have learned from Dad.
Dad's holy memory be praised.
Forget your apple, AV. I want you to prove that you're not talking out of butt.
What ever happened to Dad anyway? Its JohnR7 I really missAs one of the few surviving apostles testifying to Dad's physical presence among us, long ago, I, Thaumaturgy, formerly Saul of Escondido, can vouch for Fishface's decree.

Dad (dad1) is posting over at physorg.com and setting all kinds of records for negative feedback ratings! Nothing like talking about the split with a bunch of physicists.What ever happened to Dad anyway? Its JohnR7 I really miss

I weep for humanity.

I must say that I found PuckSR's arguments exceptionally strong, especially given with whom he is arguing. The thread rules.I just found this thread: http://forum.physorg.com/index.php?showtopic=16256
How does someone that crazy even figure out how to use a computer?
I couldn't expect my friend to believe it if I have no proof that you created it ex nihilo, especially if it looks just like other apples, and especially if I don't know how you did it. Actually, if my friend just bought it without asking for proof I'd think they were a bit too gullible for my tastes.
Good answer, Shmee.
Let me ask you this:
Would your friend believe you if I wrote him/her a note saying I did it, and gave the note to you to give to him/her?
