(I'm not joking... and don't call me Shirley).
Sorry but after reading this particular gem I couldn't help but think of
Airplane.
After all if evil men like Mussolini and Hitler can "make the trains run on time" it would not be surprising if the Almighty created a medical textbook example of healthy birth.
K, you commit a half a dozen logical errors here.
False Analogy is only one of them as one part of your statement has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Nothing.
From this statement, and using your logic, I can infer the Almighty is like Hitler and Mussolini: a fascist. Better yet, I can infer that Hitler and Mussolini are deities because their acts of making trains run on time is comparable to god's ability to create a textbook birth.
See how this goes? It's nonsense. I
think I see the point you endeavor to make, but this type of faulty logic so undermines your argument that it is difficult to take you seriously.
I'm not at all trying to be rude here, but I strongly suggest, nay, urge you to visit this site (
Forbidden)and at least read through it. It will help learn what types of fallacies to avoid, and, hopefully, help you to formulate stronger arguments that are more logically sound.
