[PuddingcupWoW]

there is a site called "reasonablefaith" .org for some reason I can't post a link

a site that I use regularly to look at Q & A's, listen to podcasts, debates and more!

Dr. William Lane Craig is worth looking up for anything scientific and biblical. I have learned... quite a lot from this site :)

@PuddingcupWoW I've seen the site that you're talking about and William Lane Craig is the most dishonest Christian apologist I've ever seen. I've never seen him in a debate where he didn't blatantly misrepresent (i.e. straw man) his opponent's position, misquote scientists and/or make false/unconformable claims about reality in an attempt to make/counter a point. If you want a better apologist or at least a more honest one, look up the YouTube user RationalRoundtable

I could say the same about you.

[themanofearth]

@bris1tol Actually, no you can't: Not without showing me where I've been inconsistent.

[bris1tol]

I don't know the percentage (maybe 10 % ?) but faith obviously is the larger domain.

[themanofearth]

@bris1tol Again, false. Reason is not a percentage of faith. Reason precedes faith in the same way that lightning precedes thunder. Faith cannot be gained without a reason.

i had a friend tell me that human reason and logic cant explain god because we will never understand why he does things. I just sat there and thought how could we be made in his image if he has nothing in common with him on a thought level.

@themanofearth

I think that quotes from fortune cookies contain the same level of wisdom as the Bible.

Hmm, actually I do not recall any fortune cookie ever telling me that I need to fear hell, beat my slave, stone my child, kill my brother, hate my neighbor due to his/her choice of sleeping companion, rape and murder a village or to give money to freeloading-skirt-wearing-chil­d-raping-brainwashing-holier-t­han-thou-ass-wipes.

Love thy neighbor-Really?

No, fortune cookies are decidedly better.

We're all gnostic theists, because if a god is the Universe, we can see it.

[themanofearth]

@bris1tol I'm quoting YOU here:

"I have to admit that faith does have to have some degree of reason." & "God is where logic comes from."

You're going back on what you admitted earlier in our conversation in order to suit your current needs, you're not being consistent with where logic comes from/in, you seem to be incapable avoiding self-contradiction and you don't seem to understand what we're actually discussing.

Were this an actual debate, you just lost: With flying colors.
