Asimov Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 According to this Christian dude, Veritas over here at exwitch.org (who seems to be a lot like Manata) extraordinary claims do NOT require extraordinary evidence! Oh my....so I guess we should all just accept every religion on the face of the earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunar Shadow Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 it is quite frustrating I know. I personally have been booted from 3 different boards for trying to force intelligent thought from people. it is fucked up when a christian can bash the hell out of an Atheist but if an Atheist raises a finger in protest BAM BANNED. double standard bullshit.

Oh my....so I guess we should all just accept every religion on the face of the earth. Ah funny. I am not sure, but we used to have a Veritas that used to post here a long time ago. I wonder if it is the same guy? I doubt it, even he would know that such a statement is ridiculous and wouldnt try that crapola. Asimov, you should sell him something grand and out of this world, since he seems to feel that skepticism is useless. He's got no choice than other to hand over his money.

Mr. Neil Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 According to this Christian dude, Veritas over here at exwitch.org (who seems to be a lot like Manata) extraordinary claims do NOT require extraordinary evidence!Well that settles it, then. I created the universe. Since extraordinary claims don't require extraordinary evidence, I don't need to prove anything. In fact, I've divinely revealed it to everyone anyway, so people who argue against me are begging the question. My reign of divinity shall now commence, thanks in large to brainless fucks who try way too hard to hold onto their fucked up theology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you know that extraordinary claims don't require extraordinary evidence, but the person in power has say as to who or what is god? This means that I will be supreme god as soon as you are dead.

Asimov Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 I gave him some of the examples you guys had, and he quickly agreed with me on that point. I think he wasn't quite sure what "extraordinary evidence" was. But now he's trying to claim that Faith is epistemic....or that it CAN be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he wasn't quite sure what "extraordinary evidence" was. But now he's trying to claim that Faith is epistemic....or that it CAN be. Always faith. To me that is an extraordinary claim. Ask him for his likewise evidence. (Just once I'd like to see some xian not fall back on the faith card and any variant of it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asimov Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 His problem is that he equates belief and faith...when faith is a subset of belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invictus1967 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 We have faith in what we believe and we believe that in which we have faith. The folks of Planet Atheist have neither faith nor beliefs. Therefore they fail to understand the simple concepts of which they bash.
