If you were paying attention, such an end was not a necessary consequence of his original statement, which was that Yahweh is, among other thing, inconsistent. Inconsistence equal unpredictability. Also, I think Eon's statement should be thought about.

What? Where did "honesty" come from? We were dealing with God's predictability, and you ceded.

I dub thee, Mr. Potpourri.

Oh, my apologies. I assumed you were talking about C-Decay and didn't read your article since I'm playing a game. I'll read it later.

You're now totally incoherent. Congratulations.

Tumor? *sigh* I am ashamed. I'm ashamed that you and I are both atheists. I'm ashamed that you and I are both human beings. I'm ashamed I'm even responding to you any more. I also have a feeling that if you were to actually debate most of the Christians on here, you'd get totally raped. I'm...

Yeah, my opinion is sealed. You're totally worthless.

You seem to be attempting to make yourself out to be some sort of revolutionary, a radical hero in oppressive times. Yes, I agree that we should question the Christians and their beliefs. You do realize I'm an atheist, right? That's why I said "our cause", assuming you're an atheist. My point...

DemonAura, you're not doing much for our cause, buddy. Work on a bit more cogent arguments, please. "rar rar rar" is not very impressive, or compelling. Lewanuva2003, GrandMaster's post was in response to your abridged version of Pascal's wager. You didn't really respond to him...in fact, the...

Well, he was implying the unpredictable nature of God. You yourself admit that you do not have him "figured out." Now, if you did, you'd be able to predict his actions, correct? However, I'm quite sure that you would not make such a claim, thus supporting his.

I said "their" because in Genesis Yahweh strangely says "Let us create man in our image. I never said the moon didn't matter. I said the odds of it happening didn't matter. There's a couple ways to approach this. The anthropic principle states something that might seem brutally obvious, even...

This is only because whatever God does and says is automatically deemed "good". The reason God is unable to do good is because "good" is judged relative to him. This does not make his goodness very noble or admirable. Hrmm...mutability, or lack of omniscience? You decide. I'm confused with...

And yet, if humans have purpose to God, and oxygen has purpose to humans, doesn't oxygen serve a purpose to God? Oxygen is one of his ways of keeping us alive. These "two types of purposes" are one in the same. God doesn't care? Why not? He created them. I find it very hard to believe in the...

If I were to respond fully to this, it would spark a whole new debate -- questions such as "Why would a perfect being create anything" and the very simple and logically following "Why would God ever feel the need to add something else to his creation later?" That could be a rather lengthy...

Under your worldview of deliberate creation, humans cannot be the only things with purpose. Water also has a purpose, as does oxygen, as does...et al. So, after creating such a purposeful planet, why make millions of purposeless floating rocks occupying an inconcievably large amount of...

Restate your statement, because I guarantee you will disagree with yourself if you reread that carefully.

Pointing to the "purpose" on Earth and then dismissing the apparent lack of purpose on other planets shouts inconsistency.

The text does not at all suggest that the boys were going to kill the prophet. Furthermore, I believe one of your comrades in Christ suggested earlier that the mauling came a time after the name-calling incident, implying that Elijah had long since moved on, unscathed.

Master Plan, then what of the planets that are no so "fine-tuned" as you suggest earth to be and do not, to our knowledge, contain life?
