  • @khoeweijun No, because by OUR definition, A = A and nothing else. Same goes for making a 'square-circle' (also the most ignorant atheist argument I've ever heard). By our definition, a square is not a circle. A square-circle in contradictory by nature, and God cannot make contradictions since it is against his nature.

  • @MrSupernova890 I believe it.

  • Can God make A = not A? If he can do anything? Always hv been wonderin abt dis...email to me ur answer if u can :-)

  • I live in Boise, Idaho which is near where Mr. Slick lives. The other day I was at a Hastings entertainment store and I could not believe what I saw. The great and perfect Matt Slick was looking at the Maxim and Playboy magazines they had. I walked right over a began looking at them as well. I said "Hello mr. Slick" and he very quickly left the store. It was very amusing.

  • @bluesette82 That conversion can also be the problem when you're dealing with a false dichotomy(That more options exist). For that reason it can sometimes be easier to view "not true" and "false" as distinct while reasoning because it will sometimes become obvious that you're on shaky ground.

    But there certainly are plenty of cases where true and false is a true dichotomy. =)

  • @bluesette82 "explaining it(That true/false is not a true dichotomy) should be easy then. Right?"

    I suppose he might have been looking at it like this:

    True - "Not True" is a true Dichotomy because Not inverts the set of possible outcomes

    False - "Not False" is a true Dichotomy for the same reason

    but

    when you attempt to simplify the first line, from "Not True" to "False" you are assuming that you are in fact dealing with a dichotomy. This would not be the case in tri-state logic.

  • Interesting video.

  • The message of the cross is foolish to those who are perishing. I wouldn't bother arguing with people on Youtube man lol
