Logical fallacy
What is illogical? The Christian religion has existed for 2000 YEARS. And before that the Jewish Religion from whence it sprung. And that is where I get my belief from. Simple matter of facts.
And no I do not blindly believe anything, I question and I pray and I research, I talk to others, I do research with other religions, though not many I concede. I read the Bible.
Simply because you do not believe in the Christian after life does not make it illogical.
The logical fallacy is called "appeal to popularity". Did you ever see the bumper sticker that says "East shit. 2,000,000 flies can't be wrong"??
that is what I am curious about...why? Why do you give a shit so much about the neighbors? Obviously they occupy your mind.Originally Posted by YWN666 View Post
Basically, yeah.
I'm thinking I'd like to be stuffed and posed on my front lawn behind the lawn mower. Wouldn't that freak out the neighbors??
I'm not worried that they'll freak out. I'm HOPING they will freak out. I think it would be hilarious.
And I suppose you would like me to answer that polite question you have made.
What is a Soul defined: Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
What is a spirit of a man/woman in God's image: Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Are some of you really that unhappy with your lives, that you HAVE to believe there's something "better" in this so-called "afterlife"?
happiness might be the wrong term here. but you are onto something. I do hope when life deals you a few more hands you are able to see as clearly as possible. more converts are gained because of life's sense of humor and timing.
I am truly a non believer who at one time had a deep and profound faith that lacked beliefs.
Knowing for certain is the key?LOL ... oh yeah, I'm christian just because I admit that no one knows until after they die, but then regardless of what happens they aren't talking. If there is a spirit in all living things then it isn't returning to tell us what they are doing after they leave the body. If there isn't then there is nothing to return to tell us. So logic dictates that there is no way to know for certain no matter what you believe, until after you die.
We do not know any such thing "that all things are possible" from science or anything else. Many things are possible and many of the possible are improbable, but all things are not possible. There are many things that are impossible.We do know from science that there is a LOT we have yet to understand, and that all things are possible just some things are improbable (a lot of what we know is based more on probability and less on whether it's simply true or not).
Blind faith in science is bad? If so, why?Blind faith in ANYTHING is bad, because then you stop asking questions. Without asking questions we can never know the truth. So us logical thinkers NEED the doubt generated by religion to know what the questions are, and religion NEEDS science to understand the answers better.
Oh no.. Last thing *I* need is RGS following me around, telling me what my post meant, and that I'm judgmental, and intolerant of others.. I'm done with this discussion.
Except that this happened to an 8 year old editec long long long before those stories were common.
One of the most interesting things is that when those stories did finally make the media, I fully understood what other were saying since it had also happene to me.
You get my point? I had no such expectations, and didn't hear about the dying process until I was in my early 20s or so.
this means absolutely nothing. trust me. I thought I was special too and found out that feeling an experience is special is not special at all...it is as common as feeling deja vu.It's nothing like that in my case, amigo. I had no expectations except to die and them arise when God called in all the dead. Everything that happened to me subjectively was not anything I expected to happen.
nope. I guess you live in the real world as far as you perceive it. but nope.I live in the real world far more than you do.
You have a faith based belief that I am wrong based on nothing.
I at least have the humility to understand that I don't know.
So who here is the most faith based between us, then?
You or me?

Is that you in the avatar?
Yeah. Why? Do I still look like I can kill someone with my bare hands, as you so nicely stated yesterday?
like the image.
I'm gonna snatch/grab it.
