There is nothing for me to do. You will not address any points concerning your "Jesus is the absolute truth" comment...or your "theism" justifies arrogant and self-righteous behavior....so there is nothing more I need to say. You are convinced you are the Almighty.

Enjoy your delusions.

@7Beyonder 2. I would address your other straw man arguments against the Christian faith, but I do not leave a topic until it is resolved. It is a diversion tactic use by those who cannot defend so I stay in one place. We are addressing absolutes and you have ignored my question, you have a burden of proof. If everything is subject to change, and there are no absolutes, how do you account for asking for proof. We can move topics once you have done your part! I have done mine.

@7Beyonder 1. Sure, the one you have ignored. The law of non contradiction. Christians hold this true and theism justifies it! Statements such as "there are no absolutes" or "everything is subject to change" are self defeating and therefore false. The first is an absolute truth claim that denies absolutes, second, the claim itself would be subject to change rendering it meaningless. The law is eternal, immaterial, transcendent, cognitive, it reflects the mind of God. Continued.

@Here4Yeshua

Tell me about those "absolute truths" you Christians hold. Give me one clear example of those "absolutes" you debate on (none shown here). Then this can move forward beyond the boring ego stance / greatness of you.

You have yet to give one example of a "Christian absolute truth".....but I got plenty to show you how even the Christian viewpoints have changed throughout the centuries.

Have you stoned an adulterer today? Married any of your slaves lately? hmmm...

@Here4Yeshua

Heh-heh-heh.... I wouldn't even consider this as a formal debate. This is more like slap boxing with a indolent child.

Change to what? A theology held by the intolerant and closeminded? A position so unprovable that even some of its current day followers have given way to new developments in modern science and other viewpoints. Notice the recent CHANGES in the Vatican's viewpoints?

It's called being open-minded. Wipe the dust off of your theories and doctrines.

@7Beyonder What do you do when you debate, look for a tie? Show you have more than puppy teeth and account for asking for proof in a world with no absolutes where everything is subject to change. The Christian position holds to absolute truths, you do not. We debate on absolutes and you use an absolute truth claim to say there are none. You borrowed from my position to support yours. Unless you can defend, your wrong and need to change what you believe, simple, insults don't count!

@Here4Yeshua

"Superior in reasoning?" LOL, Tell me again about the talking snake.

Im sorry, but you presented no evidence of "Jesus being the absolute truth." No supporting evidence,nothing. In fact, my posts mentions Jesus and the Christian way 8 times more than you ever did.

Im sorry your life has become so shallow that you are looking for wins and "defeats" in a electronic medium, but I must say Im no longer interested in your petty games.

Peace.

@7Beyonder I have given you evidence I defeated your world view! If you could defend your position you would I'm sure. In a few short comments I brought your wold view to a position of absurdity showing that the Christian world view is superior in reasoning. Why do you not defend and argue with intelligence, why insults? Because you have nothing else. My supporting evidence is the way in which your world view is brought to absurdity by mine! You just don't like that evidence!

[7Beyonder]

@Here4Yeshua

Again, you've said nothing. You cant call Jesus an 'absoltue truth" because in your heart you know there is no supporting evidence.

What position could be more empty than a belief in talking donkeys, a God begging for a man to sacrifice of his own son, talking snakes and rocks?

Now be gone with ye.... and your pathologicall, make-believe world of a dead God coming back to life.

Enjoy the wait. Many have died waiting....and waiting....and waiting.....LOL.

[Here4Yeshua]

@7Beyonder Ah its time for the list of unrelated bullet point arguments. You have not shown how your world view can account for your questions! You dwell upon a platform of meaningless self-defeating logic. Laugh all you want, you have been shown the emptiness your position offers. You are a jester knocking at the court of logic, let me in I want to be taken seriously! Unless you can account for why your world view can even use the word proof it is all you will be.
