I am saying that is an illegal move

Protestants accepting Calvins or Augustines ideas on original sin (which says it is actual sin committed in Adam's loins) leads to hatred of down synd...

When frishfry asked me if it Galileo's conclusion sounded rational to me "without overthinking it", I really didn't know what to say. You have proven ...

Sorry about that. Anyway, with infinity there are 1) cardinality 2) density 3) measure It seems to me you have to consider all three of these in compa...

On the subject of religion, will two people in heaven have less eternity than three? I feel like bijection is invalid. With the natural numbers, you h...

Fishfry, if the set is infinite, it's like saying there are the same infinity of points in the pineal gland as in the whole body. That's how it appear...

I say, alcontali, you crash your jet into the sun, since it's what you want. You don't respect your betters, are rebellious to everyone, and your mom ...

How much math must one know to understand this Catorian proof? It seems to me infinity is everywhere and nowhere, speaking of abstract infinity that i...

I think the West's success started in the liberal arts. Basically in the monastery. Once a culture was created however, rebellion against the religion...

No, I don't agree with your argument. The odds numbers don't line up with the whole numbers (you say), but you say they are equal infinities. You can ...
February 21, 2020 at 01:23
Faith is believing in something without evidence. You believe in your religion despite the evidence. No religion on earth clearly has God's spirit. It...

So you accept Western psychological studies only when they suit you? And why are you asking for help to formalize your system on here? And did you kno...

A lot of Christians put the emphasis on Jesus taking our punishment. But this logically has the Father saying "SOMEONE suffered pain for this, so I am...

I am not so sure Tristan. You are assuming a priori that countable infinities are not equal to uncountable. That's one of your premises, but it's left...

Of course, in liberal arts courses sometimes they read Averroes and Avicenna, and usually the Aristotle those two loved. So in attacking liberal arts ...

Considering how much work Muslims put in, they suck

A psychologist would describe Islamic nations as distinct groups of sex addicted workaholics.
February 20, 2020 at 07:40
The alim and ulema are not a "I'm better" aristocratics? I wonder if Sartre considered himself an aristocratic. Quick question: how does Islam define ...

God is not one! Only haters say others
February 20, 2020 at 06:49
Protestants take that living authority as the holy spirit. Rome for Catholics. Muslims are forbidden to look for signs, logically, because then there ...

Islam has no authority with an infallibility pedigree to deal with modern problems. I defy them even to define sex according to the Quran. In Daoism t...

An Eastern Christian church says it has the Ark of the Covenant. Some of the Eastern saints were very violent. Seeing no reason to choose one religion...

Of anyone wants to hear the most spelt sexless music, listen to 99 most essential gregorian chants on Youtube. Islam does not know sexless. In Daoism,...

What is the longest syllogism?

Indian people seem to be the only people scrupulous about not killing bugs. Joe Rogan had a great comedy set on vegetarian lifestyle. I mean, it bring...

Christianity is based on a questionable premise: the making of evil people into good people with a POOF! It's called mercy by honest people, but then ...

Even quantum eraser effects verge on miracle
February 20, 2020 at 05:03
Even Islam says not to look to signs. A devil could have been in Jesus and caused him to appear dead
February 20, 2020 at 05:03
My argument against the resurrection as historical fact: there are miracles claims in all religions. Thats what a religion is. Prophecy has to be abou...

Fundamentalist Christians think it's more likely that we know what the writings from thousands of years ago really meant in those days, than that our ...

Abraham was told to kill Isaac. Sure, God prevented it at the end by an angel. But Abraham was told to form his intent to kill and attempt to carry it...

You picked the weak songs. "I'll Be Back" is great. I have always thought the Beatles aura-mystique was atheistic, but Rome likes them now. Are they s...

Well the old Testament has the Jews killing pregnant women by tearing out the fetus. God commanded. Christians try to cover themselves by saying Jesus...

The Adam and Eve story is interesting. In the Bible Eve tells the snake that she is not allowed even to touch the tree, although God had only told Ada...

Modern scholarship in Christianity don't even take the Gospels at face value Could you image the first time someone saw a snake moving? Weird. Or the ...

Religions like Christianity and Islam (as opposed to Indian religions) say that God is the lord of life and can order killings. This is a confusingly ...

I'm serious about Muslim trolls, because they can case some damage. They dont have the man power or resources to conquer the West East or anything. Th...

Muslims are ungenerous slave owners, so we don't want them ruling the West. Where is their art? I am the handsomest man in history, as strong as an ox...

Jesus said in the Bible (so this is Christian dogma) that a steward once hired men to do a job and they agreed on a wage. Latter in the day other men ...

1) If the world was created from nothing, you can't infer anything about the creator. So you can't say he is on yours or anyone else's side. Schopenha...
