Re: So much for my 24hr vacation...

did state however that there exist within the universe these fundamental laws that reflect the nature and character of God known by Him at a minimum and partly by us.
Why do theists always write such obfuscatory statements? Please explain this very vague, possibly meaningless, sentence. Exactly how does God radiate the fact that "John Did Jump" and "John Did Not Jump" is a contradiction? Does he dictate this, can he dictate otherwise? When I say the argument you are using right now is illogical, am I radiating logic? Is that you mean God does?
Does God radiate the fact that "homosexuality is wrong", or are you saying that's how he feels about the subject?
Then explain, if you didn't while answering the questions above, how "John Jumped and John Did Not Jump" is not a contradiction if God doesn't exist.
quote:
They are in a sense a radiant property of this God. We see the radiance, and theism can begin to explain it. Meanwhile, atheists like yourself are forced to deny the realities of these truths.
Why are we forced to deny this? Why can't we just accept them all a priori? How does presupposing a God that explains every pressuposition better than just accepting the presuppositions?
These are serious questions that I would like answered considering I've never gotten an answer when I ask these to other theists (though I don't ask them alot).
