you said you didnt want to rely on science anymore. I didn't know if you knew you were surrounded by it so i was just trying to help you out.

God has allowed man to make computers btw. Thank you for popping itt for another ridiculous hit and run statement.

Actually not knowing when to run is one of my flaws.

Aside from your page long pm you sent me addressing my questions like they are arguments, when they were in fact, just questions. There's this one:

Quote:

Do you think its possible that most the world just isn't crazy?

your response:

Quote:

explain to me how that argument makes sense. most of the world thinks that you are wrong.

Is fallacious your new word of the day or something because you have yet to go through my arguments (not questions) and explain why any of them are fallacious. Go have fun in BBV please.

what do computers have to do anything?

the ginger extremist in that link says the same thing as you, that you learn science by getting to know god

that's why he can cure aids which is why aids is only rife in non-muslim countries

but hey, at least we have souls dood

oh I'm quite terribly sorry, i assumed you weren't honestly asking me whether or not most of the world had mental problems. if the sole purpose of that response was to honestly ask me if I thought that most of the world was insane, and you had no point to make or no reason to ask the question of me, then yeah, it's a question.

otherwise, it's an argument, just in the form of a question.

so was there a reason you asked that question?

You're name is random hater and you post some internet meme and probably laugh to yourself, you have just so little understanding of what you see you're like an annoying brat or something. And worse you actually put effort into it this 'random hater' self image. Lol at you.

Exactly. Omnipresence is Omniscient.

The problem is the Bible doesn't know very much truth about the scien part, but it shows understanding of the omni part which is what is ultimately important.

Atheists ignore it, imo... or don't see it... or create a barrier of reason and observation, which is futile as it is limited.

If someone doesn't know the answer to something, which is better:

1) Being honest and saying they don't know the answer
or
2) Making up an answer so it looks like they know

What do you call people who make up stats between five and twenty percent of the time?

Did you know the vast majority of people on Earth used to believe that the Earth was flat? Just because the vast majority of our population believes in a higher being does not make it fact.

No comparison, God's Word was not telling those majority of people the Earth was flat.

And i did not say it made it a fact. Reread the post.

I never said anything about God, I was merely pointing out to you that you made the argument that 1 billion+ people on Earth believe in God and they therefore have a more compelling argument than the "few scientists" (of which there are actually millions not "a few" but I digress).

I guess what I'm asking is, if everyone around you believed the Earth is flat would you believe that it was as well just because the vast majority of others did?

Trying to argue that it is a compelling viewpoint because of the number of people that believe it is a complete and utter fallacy.

I believe you reread what i posted, but now you are switching the words around.

Going to post what i stated again so you can reread again...

I think 1+ billion people who are absolutely convinced is a little more compelling than a select number of scientists going on theories?

Of course not, even God tells you not to do this. I would take their view into consideration though.
