Well not entirely. See, anything God could say, yes, but then again God couldn't just say anything. If God could say A, it would, but God couldn't say A. Still consistent, although not the kind of thing Christians would want to admit. However an easier escape from this is that yes, indeed God...

I think the problem theists have with this dilema, is not so much about either or not God makes it moral, but the way in which God makes it moral. The dilema tries to make it either: a) Arbitrary, making it worthless b) Not from God, making God superfluous Many theists do indeed believe that...

Correct. No. That's just a set, not Inf. Inf is not even a unique concept on the same framework. We often use it to describe different things, with different properties/meanings. It's context sensitive. It has a particular meaning when applied, we can demonstrate that certain meanings are...

Well that is a very good question. And the answer depends on the properties you are looking for. To address the simplest answer N/Inf is undefined, it actually doesn't equal anything. Inf is not even a number. Depending on the mathematical foundation you are working from, division is not...

Ok, you talked about it, now move on.

You are not refuting anything. I have pointed out exactly what part of the quotes you omitted addresses the objections you raised. You are not refuting, you are cherry picking, you are having selective reading, you pick what vaguely resembles something that may support your case and then forget...

Look, I'm not being impolite to you, nor I am being disrespectful to you. So I would appreciate if you could give me the same courtesy. If you look at it, I have pointed out exactly the mistakes you did in your argument. Mainly that you put no effort in trying to understand what I am saying...

That is not a thing. It's meaningless. Because my understanding of what an "average Joe" should know about theory of mind is absolutely fuck-all, and not even an idea worth entertaining. No I don't. You are not getting it, you are not listening to what I am saying. Momo has seen the word...

I know what my own notion of "mental" is. But my notion and your notion are clearly not the same, is it? My notion of metal is a self referential phenomena occurring on a physical substrate that we call the brain, your concept is an "unspecified something" akin to a disembodied mind (whatever...

Well I disagree. I have been stating that you don't understand your own arguments. And it's a very valid point to demonstrate that you have been operating under a notion about these concepts that are simply invalid, reason why you can't understand why your points are invalid. Case in point your...

Ok, so you define conscious as being able to notice, define notice as being able to perceive, define perceive as being aware, and define aware as being conscious.

If it were merely that simple. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_self

You didn't answer the question. And it is a pertinent one given that a 18 mo doesn't have much of a concept of self. Their understanding is different from that of a toddler, that differs from that of a teenager, from that of an adult, and even from that of a philosophy major. Although it does...

Am I mistaken here, or did not SD just granted to answer your question while asking you to answer his question in return, and you never did?

Oh look, you didn't get an answer. What a surprise. Who would have thunk it?

I can do this all day. And I hope that the message sinks in. You are not getting anywhere with this.

Here is a list of point that I made and how you have address them. P: Stands for a point that I made C: Stands for counter that you make [this is a comment on your counter] P: If a creature is conceived that is like us physically, then it can not lack consciousness. C: Yes you are way confused...
