Apologetics 301 Guidelines

If you think this is the area where you tell everyone you are sorry for eating their lunch out of the fridge, it probably isn't the place for you


This forum is open discussion between atheists and all theists to defend and debate their views on religion or non-religion. Please respect that this is a Christian-owned forum and refrain from gratuitous blasphemy. VERY wide leeway is given in range of expression and allowable behavior as compared to other areas of the forum, and moderation is not overly involved unless necessary. Please keep this in mind. Atheists who wish to interact with theists in a way that does not seek to undermine theistic faith may participate in the World Religions Department. Non-debate question and answers and mild and less confrontational discussions can take place in General Theistics.

    ?????? Nice to see you laugh at yourself. The 'all consuming truth' is obviously out of the reach of fallible human efforts and beliefs for that matter. If you equate remotely what I meant with this then you are experiencing a dysfunctional moment. . . . or maybe 'Did the sarcasm needle meter peg here?'

    The fact that supernatural and miraculous events cannot be corroborated or verified by the methods of academic historical methods and Methodological Naturalism is a simple matter definitions of 'supernatural' and the miraculous.' It's like two parallel lines, they will never meet.

    The same paradox exists for the foolish efforts of Intelligent Design, and Cosmological Arguments.

    Glendower: I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
    Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man;
    But will they come when you do call for them? Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part 1, Act III:

    go with the flow the river knows . . .

        Relax. We were just joking around about your use of the word 'voracity' in a couple of threads when we assume you meant to say 'veracity'. Just a little good natured fun. It's good to be able to laugh at oneself. I do it all the time.

        βλέπομεν γὰρ ἄρτι δι᾿ ἐσόπτρου ἐν αἰνίγματι, τότε δὲ πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον·
        ἄρτι γινώσκω ἐκ μέρους, τότε δὲ ἐπιγνώσομαι καθὼς καὶ ἐπεγνώσθην.
