They are witnessed. Observed. Repeated. Your claims are posted on the net. They grow old fast.
They are not any of those things. They are all one-off events. They are not observable, testable and repeatable events.
Bible stories are claims, not evidence. And extraordinary claims, at that. The evidence comes from a demonstration that the claims are true, not mere assertions.
False. When the major western kingdoms of history are recorded in prophesy before they existed, that was evidence. You seem to invent conspiracy theories and engage in selective denial.
It’s true. If you say it’s false, then you need to present the evidence for the existence of spirits. Plain and simple.
Prophecy is nonsense and does not demonstrate the existence of spirits. Seriously, do you not understand what evidence is? Show us a spirit. Shows us some kind of measurement of spirits or the spirit world that have been taken. Show us how spirits interact in the natural world. Something, anything!
What selective denial do you think I am engaging in? And what conspiracy theory have I invented?? It sounds like you’re projecting. And I’m guessing you deny the claims of say, the Qu’ran, correct? Why is that?
When God works in a real way in people today, that is evidence!
How have you demonstrated that God works in “real ways?”
What “real ways?”
Don't cry to us because poor little science is left out and can't detect it's way out of a paper bag!
That’s rich. Really, it is. And bizarre.
You’re the one who can’t “detect your way out of a paper bag.” Where are these spirits you claim exist?
Science can demonstrate it’s claims. You cannot. As you’ve demonstrated time and time again on this forum.
Actually they are all about spirits.
In what way?
I have no reason to dispute the bible and the recorded witnessed events. You have no evidence that they were not observed as claimed. To engage in denial of Israel history, and the word of real apostles and witnesses is akin to last thursdayism.
Just because you accept the Bible and claim that it’s full of “recorded witnessed events” (which it is not) doesn’t magically make it true. You have to show that something is true, rather than just asserting it. The Qu’ran isn’t true just because some people believe it. Zeus isn’t real, just because somebody believes it. And angels aren’t true, just because the old book you accept at face value says there are angels. Such claims need to be demonstrated, just like the claim that “unicorns exist” needs to be demonstrated rather than asserted.
Don't accuse others of what so called science does for a living!
Nonsense. You’re projecting again.
By the sounds of your posts, you don’t seem to have any idea what science is or what evidence is to begin with.
Daniel saw Gabriel. Jacob saw the angel of the Lord. Mary saw Gabriel. Zechariah saw the angel. Jesus saw the angels ministering to Him. Paul heard and saw a spirit that knocked him off the horse. Joseph had an angel appear to him by night. etc etc etc etc etc.
Good grief. That is not evidence. Those are claims!
A being that has a spiritual rather than physical body.
How do we know such things exist? Can you show us one? Don’t tell me that someone in an old book claims that they exist. That is NOT evidence.
You said “spirits are detectable.” You have yet to tell me how to detect one.
Science is the observation and measurement of the FISHBOWL around us! It also measure the physical. Nothing to do with the far past or spirits.
So then how do we know that spirits exist at all, given that they are not detectable (despite your previous claim that they are), they are not measurable and they are not physical. That sounds like a thing that doesn’t exist.
Part of the nature change was that spirits are no longer a part of life here, and seem to be more separate from man and the physical world. They no longer marry women for example. Spirits now still appear and exist, but are unseen unless a miracle happens and we are allowed to see them.
That doesn’t explain how they are detectable.
You need to DEMONSTRATE these extraordinary claims, if you want anybody to take you seriously.
You do NOT know how things exist in the first place or we would not be talking!
Huh?
What I said was, we know things exist, when there is evidence for the existence of said thing. Not before that. For some bizarre reason, you seem to be denying that, which would mean that you accept every single thing anybody ever told you, until someone showed it to be wrong? How on earth would anyone make it through life that way?
On the contrary you embrace so called science.
I embrace the scientific method because it’s the single most useful tool we have ever come up with to accurately observe and measure the world around us. It has produced all the knowledge we currently hold about … well, everything.
As I said, I don’t hold an “origin belief.”
Perhaps some rationality would be needed to figure that out.
I’d love if you’d try using some.
You openly deny things for which there is lots of evidence.
Such as?
. What you mean is that your preferred definition of evidence is very very very limited and religious.
It’s limited to that which is observable, measurable, testable, repeatable, etc.
Thing that are not detectable are basically the same as non-existent things because there is no way to ever discover anything about them at all, including whether they exist or not.
You only accept the physical and limit what evidence means to your belief system.
I accept that which is observable, measurable, detectable, testable, etc. Most people do, because it’s the rational position to hold. And most people do this in every single facet of life, save for religious belief. That apparently goes in some separate box so it can be sheltered and protected.
What do you think my belief system is?
