Agnostic vs Atheist

No, but that's no cause to assume that imaginings without an iota of evidence have to be given serious consideration.

Ok frank. Since you seem incapable of anything aside from derogatory remarks and namecalling when you are stuck, let me spoon feed it to you.
Here is my post, in context with your post that I was responding to. My notations are to clarify plain english into ever simpler english.

One day frank might just realize that a lack of evidence can , in fact, constitute evidence.
What a traumatic day that will be for him.

Right!

Like lack of evidence of sentient life on the planets circling the 60 nearest suns to our Sol...

...is evidence that no sentient life exists on those planets.

Shyt for brains!!!!!

I said can frank, can. -referring of course to my use of the qualifier can, which you seemed to ignore-

Your contrived example- sentient life on 60 nearest blah blah- is evidence- A thing or things helpful in forming a conclusion or judgment- only of your inability-Lack of ability or means- to budge-To alter a position or attitude- even an iota - A very small amount- from your position to hear reason - A declaration made to explain or justify action, decision, or conviction--

Sad really. -self explanatory - I hope - and all the more true as of this posting.-

The fact that I must break down these simple semantics to someone pretending to be my intellectual superior is making me giggle.

This is really comical.

I don't know whether you honestly don't understand or if you are putting on some sort of diversion..both possibilities make me smile.

"I said can frank, (frank, I said can, or even hey frank, I just said can, and I'm pointing that out because can is a qualifier in my statement you ignored when you replied) can (emphasis)

Really, this is beyond comical.

I am beginning to think much of what is said to you is simply lost due to reading comprehension problems.

It certainly would explain a thing or two.

Whatever man, if you still don't understand, you never will.

Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. (1Corinthians 1:20,21)

1 Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

1 Corinthians 1:27 but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong.

Just because something doesn't make sense to one or another....doesn't mean it doesn't make sense.

That would apply to .........all maybe?

The agnostic position doesn't make sense to.....whomever and?

The atheist position makes no sense to.....whomever and?

The theistic position makes no sense to.....whomever and?

Christianity is seen as such and such by so and so and this means what exactly?

What exactly is the point?


"Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons." Acts 10:34

No doubt!

Why would he or why should he?

Ummm...okay!

And I had to read this "explanation" of the original pathetic distortion several times before IT made any sense.

Why don't you try taking some courses in "writing for comprehension" alongside the "reading with comprehension" you so sorely need.

By the way, is English a second language with you?

Truth has a way of doing that!

So does mush!

Who takes themselves too seriously Frank?

What is there to enjoy from those who offer nothing more than mush?

Could you be taking yourself a bit too seriously?

Just wondering.

Is everything you don't agree with or have no response to mush Frank?

How do you conclude I take myself too seriously?

Is this something you know.....or believe?

You definately have pride Frank.

Interesting tennis match between Frank and Doktor S. Can this ever have an end? The simple truth seems to be that Doktor S used incorrect punctuation and Frank read literally.

I must be a dodo because I understood what both were saying.

Carry on boys. Don't keep us in suspense waiting for the good stuff.

:wink:
