Archaeology of the New Testament

[Into the Night]

My use of deep is because you play dumb, generally more than on e per post.

Your use of "Derp" is because you have lost context again.

 

[Into the Night]

I play a rational person with the ability to observe and form opinions based on easily identifiable details.

You consider your preaching a 'play' now?

 

[Into the Night]

Reality is something you'll never get!

Inversion fallacy. You can't blame your problem on me or anybody else.

 

[Into the Night]

You are just angry at something you heard 40 years ago in Sunday school.

None of that disproves the concept that a rational, lawful universe is caused by a rational agency.

Irrational statement.
There is no 'law of the Universe'.
The Universe is unorganized.
How does any event create a thing the event itself must exist in?

And none of it proves that atheism is the truth.

He is not an atheist. He is a fundamentalist.

And it absolutely has nothing to do with cosmological fine tuning; the convergence of the universal physical constants and net cosmic energy balance on values that appear balanced on the edge of a razor blade to allow matter and the universe to exist.

There is no such thing as 'universal physical constants'.
There is no such thing as 'net cosmic energy'.
Cliche fallacy.

 

[Into the Night]

The universe would not be lawful, comprehensible, predictable if it were actually true that it is random and unorganized.

Irrational statement.
There is no 'law of the Universe'.
The Universe is unorganized.

 

[Into the Night]

Never said a,single word about proof.

Lie. Denial.

"Basic" is not a word that I would use. It's statistically improbable all these universal constants would all converge on the exact values to support atomic matter and a stable space time. Fine tuning is a legitimate scientific and philosophical question.

Math error. Failure to declare boundary. Failure to declare variance. Failure to declare data source. Failure to select by randN. Failure to normalize by paired randR. Failure to calculate margin of error. Failure to calculate average. Denial of statistical mathematics.
Failure to declare randX. Failure to declare boundary. Denial of probability mathematics.

Statistical math is not probability math.
There is no such thing as a 'universal constant'. Buzzword fallacy.
The Universe is not an atom.
The Universe is not 'stable space time'.
There is no 'fine tuning'.
The Universe is not science.
The Universe is not philosophy.
The Universe is not a question.

The question isn't about proof.
It's about what seems to be a better explanation:

Attempted proof by math error.

That the rational, lawful, and material was caused by the irrational, inanimate, and immaterial?

Irrational statement.

Or that the rational and lawful was caused by the rational and purposeful.

Irrational statement.

The Universe is unorganized.

 

[Cypress]

The Universe is unorganized!!!

 

[Melchizedek=Tecumseh]

Inversion fallacy. You can't blame your problem on me or anybody else.

I have no problems, nice try dickhead

 

[ZenMode]

Your use of "Derp" is because you have lost context again.

Nope. It's because you insist on playing dumb.

 

[ZenMode]

You consider your preaching a 'play' now?

I consider stating the obvious to be what I am doing. I do that while you and @Cypress exist in a world of denial.

You can't acknowledge obvious flaws and cypress just wants to throw around straw men and focus on the part that is convenient for his argument.

all your ideas and the words you used to desribe them are wrong.

you're a fucking imbecile.

 

[Cypress]

So, again, you believe that your God "rationally" designed and created the universe, at a molecular level, but just half-assed it on the designed of the one mammal he created that he wanted to have a relationship with and the one planet he created to put the mammal on?

The fact that I could get sunburned, get skin cancer, or die in a flood tells me absolutely nothing about the purpose and value of a human life nor the origin of the cosmos.

You are obviously jaded and cynical about life and the universe, and see flaw, imperfection, and mistake wherever you look.

I marvel at the improbability of both the existence and design of the universe - and I believe the ordinary fact of human existence is a miracle that the cynical and jaded just take for granted. Being alive is the most extraordinary, improbable, and miraculous twist of chance any of us experience. Our experience of sentient consciousness, love, and freedom is undoubtedly so precious and rare in the cosmos it seems to be objectively meaningful.

The question that all but the most jaded will inevitably ask is how am I supposed to understand and interpret the extremely improbable fact of my existence.

You can't acknowledge obvious flaws and cypress just wants to throw around straw men and focus on the part that is convenient for his argument.

I read and considered your comments, but I concluded that the fact that I could get sunburned, get skin cancer, or die in a flood tells me absolutely nothing about the purpose and value of a human life, nor about the origin of the cosmos.

see.

this is the psychotic belief of a criminal.
