@Frank Apisa,
So, we are not allowed to have testable science because you think untestable stuff you don't really know about could one day become testable? Did you ever consider writing a Joseph Heller novel?

@Setanta,
Frank's been bitten so often in the ass, I don't think he feels it any more. LOL Mr. Green

That's made even more hilariously moronic by your statements a few months ago that if there were a god, it would be subject to the naturalistic laws of the universe.


I never said that, Setanta. What I did say was a variation on, "If there is a GOD...then that GOD is a part of what is natural." If there is a GOD...it is not supernatural...it is a part of nature.


I'm OK with that interpretation of what you said. So here is something else which you know about this god, which you do not know exists. As i said, for someone who continually says he doesn't know, you seem to know an awful lot about the nature of the god which you do not know exists.


Oh, c'mon, Setanta...you are just pretending that you think I am saying that I know something about a god I don't even know exists.

You are such a kidder.

Pointing out that you don't employ logic is not an insult, it's just descriptive.


Yeah, you often say that when you are insulting someone. It is a cute way of handling those things. I love it.

And there is at least one person here who thinks you did not intend the comments as insults.


Quote:

You're funny, though, complaining about insults and then calling people disobliging names.


"Disobliging names!" Wow! I love that.

Hey, you wouldn't mind if I used that some time would ya?

Anyway...we're just tweaking each other, right, Jabba?

My comment can be "tested", Edgar.

Here is the comment:

IF there is the possibility of a GOD...there is the possibility of intelligent design.

Test it.

Nobody can test something that can't be tested. Logic 101.

Argumentum ad nauseum.

@Frank Apisa,
This statement from farmerman's article went way over your head.

Quote:
Falsifiability, particularly testability, is an important concept in science and the philosophy of science.


Your "if" can't be tested. I often wonder "if" you're stupid or just plain ignorant.

I thought it had been agreed that it is all nothing to do with God. And if it does have something to do with God what business is that of ours?

Surely no intelligent designer would consider him/her/itself a God, would he/she/it?.

Unless she/he/it was nuts.




Just saying like...

I am neither stupid nor ignorant...and I can post without insulting opponents with comments like that.

You can "test" the logic of the comment.

Try it...and you will see.

... o.O ... I thought everyone knew most of us were descendants of extraterrestrial life forms (aliens). The answer is in the skull.

Disprove it if you can!

But of course that would not negate what I am acutally saying in my comment:

And Frank is tacitly acknowledging it's possible the moon is made of orange juice.

Test it!

Glad you are still waiting. Waiting must fulfill some need of yours.
