PHILOSOPHY IS KING

Then why are you even here? I am here to learn about and try to understand other people's beliefs. And to a lesser degree show them what the evidence really supports. But, if you are here simply to try to prove other people wrong regardless of what evidence they have against you, why don't you head over to one of the Christian forums and preach your philosophy to them? Surely they will be easier to persuade.

______________________________________________________________________So you backtrack on your comment/belief that you are here to learn ?I am here to also try and present what I believe the evidence really supports.Which is it ?Rand quote:

______________________________________________________________________Then you are saying my position has been proven wrong. What evidence are you talking about ? I don't recall your participation, except to ambiguously criticize drive-by style.Rand quote:

______________________________________________________________________This is an angry comment.Your mind is wide open except to christianity. If you don't like what I say then prove me wrong. I greatly irritate you. I will remain at EvC Randy - it is the best Forum on the Net.

No, not really. What bothers me is when a person refuses to admit even the possibility that they are wrong. I have no problem with you having your mind made up, but to claim that there are no other possibilities is just arrogant. That is the problem, you have not show any evidence. No, in this particular thread I do not think your position has been falsified. (Nor has it been proven either) But, I have seen you debate in other threads in which you simply dismissed evidence because it contradicted you. What makes you say this? I am an atheist, to me NO religion has provided enough evidence to be considered true. But I am not so arrogant to say that my beliefs are the only right ones. I suppose this is true, I've be tending to lurk recently, I only really post when I have a lot of free time.Willowtree, you only irritate me to a slight degree, in fact I think you are one of the better creo posters that we have on EvC. The people that truly irritate me are people like whatever or 14-gripper.And I do agree with you, EvC is the best debate forum on the net.
