The Absurdity of Atheism

Define perfect.

Lacking nothing essential to the whole; complete of its nature or kind. Complete; thorough; utter; absolute.

duh?????



q.e.d.

If your parents and relations have wacko beliefs, surely you don't want to be like them?

I hope you're not a mummy's boy doing what she tells you all the time, so maybe you're just not tough enough to be a Christian?

Be a daredevil like Jesus's young cousin John who was a world-rejecter living rough in the wilderness and sometimes going in town to yell insults at the snooty priests and corrupt rulers.
Jesus's verdict on him?-
"John is the greatest man ever to be born" (Matt 11:11)

Quehon replied: lol, so , from what I understand, you live now in the wilderness, and you reject the world? right?
what nonsense it all is. Even from a distance!

You can live in a big city and still distance yourself in your mind from the stupidity of the world, you don't have to live in the wilderness if you don't want..
Jesus said:- "The world wants you to dance to its tune......God has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners...to release the oppressed" (Matt 11:16/17,Luke 4:18 )

But sadly most people are timid and imprisoned in the ways of the world instead of trying to bust out.
Like I said, Christianity wants daredevils, not wimps.

You don't either...but you are discussing it.

My dear boy I never said that I didnt know...on the contrary, I said I did know and that I based that knowledge on emperical eveidence.
By saying that YOU dont know can ONLY mean that you are NOT in a posititon to say I dont know or contridict my position unless you some how gain knowlegde and contrary evidence that shows my position to be incorrect.

FRANK WROTE:

Quote:

Anyway...what I said there does not mean that I do not know anything about the subject. It only means I do not know if gods exist or not.

Now Frank you have accused me of not directly quoting you...

I wrote;

So can I safely say, that on the subject of god, you just dont know? Is that a fair statement?

You answered:

Quote:

Yes

Have I missed something?

FRANK WROTE:

Quote:

I apparently know more than you about the subject...insofar as I know I do not know if gods exist or not.

Frank, I believe this to be a non sequitur but it also seems to contradict your eariler admission that you dont know anything on the subject.

FRANK WROTE:

Quote:

You on the other hand are kidding yourself into thinking you have "solved" a mystery that has baffled the brightest minds on the planet throughout recorded history.

Frank, I havent solved anything. It was solved when we finally were able to prove emperically that HUP and the 2 slit experiment demonstrates that an ominscient being can not exist.

You may want to cut your losses on this one buddy.

You've got the wrong end of the stick mate, being a wimp in the Christian sense means going along with the stupid ways of the world and dancing to its tune instead of having the guts to say "NO, I won't dance!".
I was a terrible gutless wimp as a kid, going along with all the stupid stuff my parents and teachers were telling me, until in my mid-teens I decided to say "NO", and from that point onwards I've been doing my own thing and have been kool ever since, and have become the toughest person I know

You can say that you are Napoleon Bonaparte

It is impossible to know there are no gods.

Your so-called proof so far has been farce.

In any case, you have been here at A2K for less than a week and it is presumptuous of you to think you can dismiss me from a discussion.

you will only discuss it with people like yourself...folk who are delusional about it.

You're not my buddy? ...OK I guess I'll get over it.

Shhh... Josephine thinks I'm still thinks I'm in Elba!

So following this logic we must also consider santa claus, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy, and ghosts? Trust me, a negative can be proved.

My proof is based on the absolute most sucessful theory in all of science.

Well I never said that I was dismissing you and as for me only being in here for a week, while I was born at night, it just wasnt last night.

Quote:

"A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary. As a pathology, it is distinct from a belief based on false or incomplete information, confabulation, dogma, illusion, or other effects of perception."

Have fun at work...I only post when I'm at work!

You're not my buddy? ...OK I guess I'll get over it.

Quehon said: Sure, but still not anwering my questions.

I told you that anybody who mindlessly follows the stupid ways of the world is a wimp and therefore not tough enough to be a christian

How about without limitation? Would that fit?

Nonsense.

How long have you been here in A2K, John? Are you a liar about who you are...and how long you have been here?

I repeat: If you truly plan to limit your discussions of this issue to people who KNOW whether there are gods or not...you will only discuss it with people like yourself...folk who are delusional about it.

Okay. But the New York contingent of A2K (a fairly sizable element) is given to frequent get-togethers for dinner or a few drinks...and you may want to join us some time and get to be buddies with several of us...me included, of course.

Frank my man...how exactly is Quantum Mechanics nonsense?

Frank, seriously...is english your first language?

I'm trying to say that I may have only been here for a week but that doesnt mean I havent brought all my knowlege and experience with me. By questioning "how long I've been in here" its tantamount to saying that those who have been here longer have some special status.

You do know the definition for insanity, right? Doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different outcome?
