I'm so sorry. You asked over a year ago about syllogistic arguments. I haven't been back on the site in a very long time. Missed your message. I trust you've resolved the matter after all this time.

:biggrin:

This statement is essentially meaningless.

Indeed. You, Where Are My Keys, The Human Being and I grasp the essence of the matter with regard to the laws/axioms of thought and mathematics; atheists generally do not. But, then, as Boss demonstrates, not all theists get it either. Boss can't even grasp the fact that his theistic system...

Your argument is ridiculous. It amounts to the following: humans cannot be absolutely certain about anything; therefore, God exists!

LOL! As usual Boss simply does not grasp the ramifications of his irrational, utterly unsustainable premise, by which he claims to have special knowledge about something that cannot be justified within his theistic system of thought, a premise that is inherently contradictory and self-negating...

Why should an atheist take anything Boss says seriously? Boss, a theist, baldly declares that the very foundation of theism—consciousness and the laws/axioms of thought and mathematics thereof—are created, nonessential, yet God exists! What?! Boss insanely argues that local causation in...

As do I. I have nearly 1300 titles in my DVD library. I note that you list a few horror films, including the comedy-horror Return of the Living Dead. I have that title and The Exorcist. Another great horror title is The Omen.

:alcoholic:

Great choices. Now that list demonstrates experience with great film. I actually own all of those titles as well, except Magnificent Obsession. I've read about it. Thanks for reminding me about it. I keep meaning to get around to it. I'm a huge fan of the screwball comedies of the classic...

You have that and the theological ramifications thereof right, but why you fail to consistently hold that God would, therefore, necessarily be above and beyond the temporal realm of being is beyond me. God is the universal Principle of Identity. God = God. The prescriptive laws of logic...

No. What's hilarious is that your understanding of logic is precisely the same as that of Boss, and you're wrong on all points. First, the non-locality causation of unitary systems predicted by quantum physics has been observed for decades in multi-particle systems; however, previous...

:alcoholic: You're insane. The fundamental axioms of (1) the law of identity, (2) the law of contradiction and (3) the law of the excluded middle (comprehensively, the principle of identity) logically hold true. The principle of identity is necessarily justified true belief/knowledge. It...
