I would avoid a public debate style forum. The concepts and assertions within apologetics are easily argued, articulated, and romanticized because they are intellectually vacuous. Inversely, science and reason cannot be easily explained as you will most likely have to condense decades if not...
A general problem with a situation like this is you will end up throwing logic at a position that is formed irrationally and it is going to do very little. The reason is I highly doubt that argumentation like this is the foundation of why they believe. It's most likely post hoc rationalization...
Religiosity doesn't necessarily involve being dogmatic. She could be just as emotionally invested if not more so than other friends and family that are dogmatic.
As you continue to understand more about the nature of religion and faith you will probably realize that the fight for acceptance...
Re: These people believe in the digimon world i'm not jokin
Guys, don't be mislead by your silly logic. I have finally made contact with my digimon.
He is :facepalm: and he digivolves into :lol: .
Predictable is an understatement. Upon seeing the teaser trailer for the first time quite a few months back and without having even known there was a novel I was able to guess as to what the entire plot of the movie was. The movie is a psychological rehash because by simply bringing up the...
The man doesn't need to be educated. He needs an extensive amount of psychotherapy and I can't stress enough how futile it is to argue with a narcissist of his caliber.
Exaggerates education and achievements - Check
Sense of superiority - Check
Sense of being special/"selected" - Check...
The only purpose of responding to NephilimFree is to attempt to counter any misinformation, misconceptions, and lies he spreads that might influence other people. However, convincing NephilimFree is simply not going to happen. Everything about the man screams narcissistic personality disorder...
It's not just esoteric either, but also difficult for anyone to conceptualize the "beyond". Take your point about bubbles for example. Our perspective from within the universe gives a system of relative position allowing us to observe motion, size, shape, etc... and from these we can describe...
Just goes to show that people who don't feel obligated to make sense will feel no shame when they say something stupid.
BTW H won a long LONG time ago.
It is definitely not a quote mine, but the context is far more complex than probably what that person is attempting to argue. What some scientists believe and what the evidence my suggest is that a nothingness state doesn't exist or at least what we consider to be nothing might still be...
I never said it did.
Yes, I can agree with that, but this wasn't my point. My point is that courts don't define the law, but rather they interpret it and how to apply it. That is what legal precedents are. Guidelines for applying the law. So these laws have to be already established either...
2 years ago I was visited by JW's. Upon hearing the predictable question, "I have you found Jesus Christ?" a humorous response occurred to me.
"Yes.", I said, "He told me you were coming and to tell you that you needed to clean my yard." ;)
I gave them I serious look too like I would be...
