I had butted in what I now see now, a much longer conversation between you and exchemist.But thanks for the in depth... I consider my myself a little more educated

I didn’t know. I was just replying to last post, not reading the older replies.
Perhaps it (abject slavery and its continuance) was the change God introduced to Adam after he sinned. But I know you don't believe that Adam and Eve changed chemically, that is. Because whether we like it or not, we're slaves to our body's needs anyway.Your agreement is not required
And strawmen do you no favours.
Simply because you don't comprehend is not my problem.
The thought process that condones or abhors slavery is chemical. The thought process that commands slaves were/are treated as they were/are is chemical.
A chemical reaction in the brain of those concerned.
And correct, that your brain cannot get to grips with the concept is chemical.
Isn't it wonderful that you have coffee? I love coffee.Your agreement is not required

If I recall correctly, didn't you say the universe is logical, or something close to that? Is paper logical? Is coffee logical?Say what? I assume you like making bullpoop up to massage your ego when you have no idea of the discussion?
Show me where i said "the universe thinks" anything maybe an apology for your untruth is forthcoming?
Perhaps you might read the posts in question again. However, here's a quote for you from the post in question:Say what? ...

OK, yes, I understand that. to an extent. Not that I understand (or know) the hard words, such as methodological naturalism or philosophical naturalism. But the first part I understand. That understanding starts in the brain (mind, which I think is more than the brain), and depends on what I take for granted. Thanks. Not that I understand ALL of that, but I can relate it to a child coming out of the womb. What does HE understand? I can't remember if I knew anything for the first year or so. Maybe I did. But I don't KNOW that I knew anything. I know my mother told me I cried when I was hungry, but -- she didn't always feed me because she listened to a scientist? Dr. Spock, who later changed his dear mind about schedules and infants. Anyway, as usual, have a good night and a pleasure talking to you.Here is a trick to understand "explaining" and understand "understanding". It happens in your brain and depends on what you take for granted.
If you start with something else than methodological naturalism or philosophical naturalism, evolution is different to you, than someone who uses a variant of naturalism.

Oh, correction. I know you don't believe God created Adam and Eve as the first homo sapiens, and you don't believe they're not apes. OK...

Perhaps you might read the posts in question again. However, here's a quote for you from the post in question:
I said, "Now I'm wondering if the universe thinks it is logical. lol. OK, I mean if ChristineM thinks the universe thinks it is logical."
So let's try to analyze that again, if you will. Because please note I did not say you think the universe thinks it's logical. See, I asked if you think the universe thinks it is logical. Not that you do think the universe thinks it's logical.
So you didn't understand what was said. Ok. Thank you for showing that.What you said was
... OK, I mean if ChristineM thinks the universe thinks it is logical.
So i ask again, show me where i said "the universe thinks"
I assume because of your squirming that you can't but i offer you a second chance to save face.
But if you can't, don't worry, I am used to religious people not apologising when they deliberately misrepresent.
So you didn't understand what was said. Ok. Thank you for showing that.
Does the universe think? That's the first question. The next one is, does paper think?I said the universe behaves in a logical fashion.
So why the strawmen?
Wow.Does the universe think? That's the first question. The next one is, does paper think?

Wow.
You really want to beat that strawman like a dead horse, don't you?
