You finally understand where the contradiction is?
Thank you for finally making your fallacious argument manifest.
I learned to write simply for people like you who have an amazing difficulty understanding simple statements.
So you begin with ad hominem to set up your straw man, eh? Nice move . . . not.
Definition of faith:
Let's syllogistically recap Sunsettommy's mindless argument:
1. Faith has only one context (the context arbitrarily selected, emboldened and imposed by Sunsettommy. The other contexts magically cease to exist.)
2. Faith is the firm belief in something for which there may be no tangible proof.
3. A firm belief in something cannot be predicated on tangible proof (or evidence) as that would entail a contradiction in terms.
Well looky there! A totally fallacious argument whose conclusion would not follow even if the first premise weren't a bold face lie, and, of course, as we can all now see, the previously implied conclusion (the point Sunsettommy was trying to make all along) is what's contradictory, patently false, stupid, absurd. . . .
Yes because you can't accept simple statements at all, here is that definition again:
Faith is defined as belief with strong conviction; firm belief in something for which there may be no tangible proof; complete trust, confidence, reliance, or devotion. Faith is the opposite of doubt.
Faith and Belief are examples of a state of mind, not based on evidence, it is based on deciding this is what I will follow, absent of any concrete reason to do so. No mention of evidence needed to have faith, something you keep dodging over and over.
"Definition of belief
1
: a state or habit of mind in which trust or confidence is placed in some person or thing"

When I posted obvious bible contradictions, Chem Engineer
replies with a stomping sneering undertone, then puts me on ignore, it sound like I created doubt in him because he who supposedly have strong faith in god ran away so fast,
and made a few horrible laughable errors in the process.
I am not a threat to him yet he runs away.
My reply the coward doesn't address neither does anyone else in that thread who claims to have the spirit of god swirling in their bodies.
I quote:
Genesis Chapter 1 Verse 1-5:
The Beginning
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
===
I made that full quote to show that life wasn't created in the first day, but coward
Chem Engineer idiotic explanations here in the below destroyed his case:
"You quite incorrectly ASSUME that ONLY the sun and the stars are "light producing objects."
Let's see how you react to your egregious error.
1. Gases and solids can be heated and they glow brightly, such as neon lights, and incandescent lights.
2. Explosions produce light. The Big Bang was such an explosion.
3. Bioluminescence produces light.
4. Plasma produces light. "
=====
Can you spot the stupid errors?
#1 gases were never mentioned in Genesis at all. Just light........
#2 was already explained in verse one of Genesis BEFORE light was created of which it is said he made day and night out of in the first day.
#3 is stupid since life wasn't yet created in the first day, it was the 5th day before animal life came along that could generate Bioluminescence.
#4 is silly too since no mention of the sun until the 4th day.
His laughable efforts to make things up in his desperate attempt to explain away the nonsense is the best he could do.

Here is my own reply that the coward ran away from to avoid reading it.
"It says that light was DAY and Darkness was NIGHT.
Sun is the only source to make day happen, night is simply the absence of the Sun being to the other side of Earth, darkness always exist by DEFAULT when there is no light generating source around.
Creates LIGHT and separates it from Darkness (
remember the bible says god is HOVERING over the waters when he makes light) , no mention of a heating source for gases not mentioned in the first 5 verses. It was three days later when the sun and stars are finally mentioned. You are making things up without evidence...... that is a common Theists tactic.
"Big bang" is an unproved hypothesis, the verse doesn't mention an explosion at all, just light coming into existence. Meanwhile no SOURCE of generating light is mentioned at this point.
"1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
That eliminated the big bang theory anyway since the Universe already exist BEFORE he makes light....
When was the universe created?
"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." --
Genesis 1:1 Archbishop James Ussher: 22 October 4004 BCE The Universe's birthday party The full chronology
Bioluminescence doesn't exist on day one......, no life created....
No mention of plasma at all in verse one, no gases or electrical energy either..... Really I don't have to go any further since you make things up as you go........
Let's see how you react to your OWN egregious errors.'
