Faith is an emotionally based decision to believe that which cannot be demonstrated to be real.

If there were to be proof, there would be no need for faith.

What other purpose does faith serve except to dishonestly validate the unproveable?

If faith is satisfying and superior to knowlege, why is there this continual push by religious persons to validate its precepts by proof, by knowledge? Is faith somehow not satisfying enough?

Your dissatisfaction is not "Satan tempting you", it is your own good sense trying to assert itself.

Once again you take the words I was going to say and apply the logic of it...

Faith for me is not something I look to validate..It already is in my belief...My good sense stands with Faith in my beliefs..Reinforces my beliefs in other words.... :thumbup: :thumbup:

Darling, this is just another example of the type of fallacious argument called, "God of the gaps," a variation of the "argument from ignorance."

". . .you will never hear a religious person refer to this argument as the argument from ignorance (as they don’t want to appear to be ignorant), it is usually used in far more subtler forms, but the vast majority of their arguments eventually revert to the following tiresome formula:

I don’t know how something came about (I am ignorant).




Scientists and atheists also don’t know how this thing came about (you are ignorant).

Therefore, a god had to have made it come about (I, therefore, know how it happened).

Conclusion: A god exists.

I have tried to keep the argument as simple and as religion-neutral as possible because this argument has been posited by many different religious faiths that have many different gods.
Although most people (and probably everyone who subscribes to this site) can see the glaring logical fallacy in the above argument, “I don’t know; therefore, I know,” which in itself makes no sense at all, . . "

Religion is irrelevent......we each have one...........what you "know" cannot explain what you see and experience. The evidence of my faith is the fruit of my life. The human mind cannot objectively contain any explaination of reality; it is endlessly subjective.

You took my post, added a new sentence, reposted it in its altered form. This seems to attribute your inserted comment to me, making my argument appear schizophrenic!

Hopefully you will correct this error and apologize.

Faith is the substance things hoped for. The EVIDENCE of things not seen. We have the Bible, God's word. This is real. It contains many prophecies. Prophecies that have come true. Do you have any idea how many prophecies their are about Christ? One person fulfilled every single one of them. The evidence for God is plentiful. You simply need to open your eyes.

We also have the sun (son)
We have the breeze that sustains and gives life
We have the rainbow, a constant reminder of his promise to never flood the land again..
We have Love, exactly what he truly is about..
We have unconditional Faith in simply knowing, with out question of that faith..
We have knowledge given by He so freedom of choice can be made...etcetcetc.....

My actual point is that "good" sense (logic) does not validate faith. Faith is a departure from objective reality, a willingness to believe without or in spite of reality. If by its very nature, faith were to be accepted as superior to reality as a proof, the concept of reality itself becomes broken and unusable, and the mind descends into madness.

Don't get me wrong. All humans operate well enough despite little pockets of illogical madness. Often, "no harm, no foul."

But when new facts, proofs and testable theories are formulated, good sense dictates abandoning older incomplete or fallacious theories.

Prettier, but deceptive language, this verse actually states what I just demonstrated!

It basically says,

"We don't know.
Insert FAITH.
Now we know!


It is a cheat code. When you use a cheat code, you LOSE in reality.

NOW YOU STILL NEED TO ACKNOWLEGE AND CORRECT YOUR PREVIOUS ERROR, AS YOUR ALTERATION OF MY POST STILL STANDS, FALSELY ATTRIBUTED AS MY STATEMENT. TRUTH IS IMPORTANT TO ME.

OBVIOUSLY, FAITH IS NOT THE ONLY DISHONESTY YOU CHOOSE TO EMPLOY!

Yes, this is an important issue for me. If you do not correct your ALTERATION of my post, I shall be forced to ask admin to look at this.

Well now, clarification please..Is that a negative or a positive???

Do you have an obsession with "wet little pussies"?? This is about the 3rd or 4th time I have seen your recitation of it, so now I'm curious as to why???

Rather than looking at the animation of the picture, did you also read what his message implies?? Do you think he really cares one way or the other???

Can we argue topic rather than person??
For the record I think his avi is funny~~Look at it with humor, dummy, I know you have some...I've seen other posts from you that show it~~
Well now, clarification please..Is that a negative... (show quote)


Apparently, you can't see his picture, which is a wet little pussy. Do you read in braille only? Do you think it is a wet little dog?

Also, apparently as long f___king is text in your avatar: it's okay. His f__king minister in his church must have brought up the topic of f___king evolution, f___king great!

Apologies! I love ya, LJ , but your syntax is unique and I am not sure what you are asking in this instance. I'd be happy to answer, but first, a little clarification?
