    Morality of Homosexuality

    Soo... are we still talking about homosexuality? Poor homos. They get so much crap to deal with.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    I didn't think that I was misrepresenting the claim advanced in the argument. Was I?

    Hindus and Pagans

    I do not know much about hinduism, but I thought that hinduism advocates a returning to the one god, similiar to buddhism? It seems to me that hinduism is more about personal growth than waging war against the great satan, or america, according to some muslims.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    Ah. You're right. I will try to find this argument in print. I think you are mistaking what constitutes a "straw man" form of reasoning. In my opinion(thus I could be wrong), a straw man is an argument that ignores wether an argument is true or not, and focuses on some drawback that would...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    I'm afraid that is wishful thinking, Dunemeister. The brain, as well as the senses, are only good at percieving material reality. If we were "designed" to percieve god, then we would not make graven images. And god would not have needed to turn himself into a man in order to get us to figure it...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    Logic, possibly. You seem to be objecting to the laws through which we subject everything. It's funny, because you say an omnipotent god could subject himself to whatever rules he wanted to, regardless of the rules we use down here! Unfortunately, the category of, "omnipotent" is formed using...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    Scientific instruments are much more precise than bodily senses. I fail to see how god could be felt by a weaker instrument, yet not be felt by a stronger one.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    There is no such flaw in panentheism, as well.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    Perhaps. I meant to say every christian that I've gotten cornered in an argument. The argument is usually a last resort so to speak, and so dififcult to counter by the friends of mine that don't believe. First, might I ask, why is an argument that a theologion made on the radio not...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    If you can recognize that it is stereotyping, then surely you can recognize that it doesn't apply to all christians...?

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    I am not arguing from my own experience. In you're previous post you advanced the idea that God is bound by rules completely different from logic or science. You advanced this because you wanted to justify whatever you wanted to say, and not have anyone attack you. Unfortunately, your opinion...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    "then they need not worry." -Cacafire The term christians is shorthand and timesaving. I can't replace christians with, *insert really long list of people who have advanced this argument here.* Do you understand?

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    I am only pointing out the flaws in this particular argument advanced by christians. If a certain christian cult does not advance this argument, then they need not worry. This is not a "disprove god" thread. It's a "point out flaw in this argument" thread.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    I don't quite understand you. Yes. I do insist. There is no reason to suppose that a "creator" is bound by completely different rules. Strange, nowhere is this said in the bible, catechumen, protestant literature, or father's of the church literature. You insist on saying that god is bound by...

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    If two things are not separate, then they are interacting.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    An object is not a material substance. It is anything that can interact with anything else. The logic applies to interaction, and therefore it applies to all objects, which, if you claim that god can interact with us, you claim that god is an object.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    You claimed interaction implies separateness. I did not.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    If you would kindly define "supernatural" then I would gladly show you.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    If you have not advanced this argument. Then you should pay heed to the flaws put forward in the OP, and not start making the argument any time soon.

    Flaw in Assertion of God's Existence

    That is an assumption I did not advocate.
