    Interesting thought about omniscience.

    Depends on your definition of free will of course :) As I understand your argument, you say that because there is only one possible outcome there is no real choice. I might think I could have chosen another option, but in fact I couldn't because that would mean that Bob was wrong. And Bob is...

    Interesting thought about omniscience.

    For Bob there is no difference between the play and the replay. Bob knows the outcome of both in advance. It is the players who don't know the outcome of the play in advance. They do know the outcome of the replay though, because it is the same as the outcome of the play which has already been...

    Interesting thought about omniscience.

    You are assuming the testing is for Bob's sake. Bob, being omniscient doesn't need to test in order to know the answer, he alrerady knows how the testee will react and what the testee will learn from the test. So Bob could decide to test someone because he wants the outcome of the test to be...

    How do you know?

    Interesting thought about omniscience.

    God could be testing us with the purpose of teaching us something. God already knows the outcome of the test of course, but we don't ;) I am a figment of God's imagination... I like your idea. :)

    Death penalty: Are you for or against it?

    I definitely oppose death penalty, but on the other hand news like this (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34401166) makes my hart warm. So maybe I am not as holy about it as I would like to think :)

    People hatin' on Dawkins

    I think it mostly has to do with the way Dawkins says things, i.e. straight to peoples faces. There are many ways to tell people that you disagree with them or think that what they say is silly. Some people have the ability to wrap their words up in nice packaging and give them to people en a...

    Non-religious people: What convinced you to stop believing in God?

    I don't think I ever believed in any god or gods. I didn't give the question much thought until I moved to Mexico when I was 16 (I was an exchange student for a year). In Mexico believing in the biblical god was the default. That way of thinking was very strange to a scandinavian like myself...

    Is a group of atheists a bit like a temperance association?

    You know let's get together and NOT drink alcohol. let's get together (or find an online forum) and NOT worshiping a god. (I know, a silly post, but the thought just occured to me and I had to share :) )

    If you were God, how would you have created the universe? What would you have done differently?

    I don't like making detailed plans, so I would probably just try something and then see how it went. If the universe turned out to be a boring one I could just destroy it and try again. Or maybe I wouldn't destroy it but just let it do it's own thing for a few billion years. Then I could check...

    Can a person choose to believe?

    So what you are saying is that you the choice is to be open to the thing that will conveince you to believe?

    Can a person choose to believe?

    I have had some very frustration discussions with people about this. I don't understand how belief can be a choice either. The way I see it, you believe whatever it is you believe because you have some convincing reason to believe it. That doesn't mean you need absolute proof, but it means...
