Zone1 The Design Argument for God’s Existence.

[noonereal]

Me too (God exists).

Mind blowing that you would think there is a God while thinking your are being objective and using critical thinking skills.

Completely mind blowing.

Mind blowing that you would think there is a God while thinking your are being objective and using critical thinking skills.

Completely mind blowing.

It's the preponderance of evidence of logical and critical thinking in my life that tips the scales.

No, it's flawed critical thinking likely mixed with cultural influence.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

So, you didn't say this, thus impugning the general intellect of believers?

Oops, another unforced error. I made no value judgments or implications thereof about the intelligence of believers.

YOU did that, assuming and implying Muslims are stupid for believing that. Whoops.

Then you tried to admonish me for it.

This is why rational discussion with faithers is nearly impossible. You're not even aware of the fallacies and errors you commit, because they are standard practice, in religion.

The second paragraph by me was a comment on this, using yet another example from you.

And let's be clear: even the smartest people can be fooled. And brainwashed as children.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

No, it's flawed critical thinking likely mixed with cultural influence.

It's simply brainwashing from young age, nearly every time.

If you are born in a Muslim country, you become a Muslim. In Paraguay, you become a catholic.

The data shows it for what it is.

 

[Woodznutz]

No, it's flawed critical thinking likely mixed with cultural influence.

Higher education causes mental problems which effect thinking skills. I purposely avoid the cultural influence resulting from higher education as well, for much the same reason. Give me the simple life.

 

[noonereal]

It's simply brainwashing from young age,

That is what I said. Cultural influence.

Petitio Principii

"God wouldn't let us believe in Him if He didn't exist."

 

[ding]

You already know that I don't believe the god existed either before or after the universe.

That's right. You only believe in the satisfaction of material needs and primitive impulses.

 

[ding]

No, it's flawed critical thinking likely mixed with cultural influence.

I see it the other way around. I've walked both paths and looked at it from all sides. What have you done?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

That's right. You only believe in the satisfaction of material needs and primitive impulses.

That's right. You only believe in magical horseshit like zombie kings and magic tricks being real.

This is fun!

 

[noonereal]

I see it the other way around. I've walked both paths and looked at it from all sides. What have you done?

What on earth are you talking about?

 

[ding]

That's right. You only believe in magical horseshit like zombie kings and magic tricks being real.

This is fun!

No. That's how you see it. I wouldn't believe what you see either.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

No. That's how you see it. I wouldn't believe what you see either.

Haha, you almost ran headfirst into the point. Sooooo close....

 

[ding]

What on earth are you talking about?

I see your critical thinking as flawed and question how you arrived at your conclusion.

 

[ding]

Haha, you almost ran headfirst into the point. Sooooo close....

You don't possess the intellect for these kinds of discussions. At least you have never demonstrated it before.

Oh boy, ding is bleeding from his wherever again.

Dare to treat him the way he treats everyone, and the waterworks begin.

Your constant logical errors show that you are beneath me , intellectually. And beneath any college sophomore who took philosophy or discrete mathematics.

I just held the mirror in front of your face. Your reaction shows a real lack of self awareness.

 

[MarathonMike]

That is what I said. Cultural influence.

Atheism is the most devout religion there is.

You come here to feel superior but you aren't superior.

I assume the Watchmaker Argument has been discussed already?
