Dualism Defended: First, if theism is true, then physicalism as a worldview is false. God is not a physical being. Second, a number of people have argued that numbers exist and that they are abstract, nonphysical entities (e.g., sets, substances, or properties). Firstly, mathematics claims to give us knowledge. But if this is so, there must be something that mathematics is about. Just as the biologist discovers biological truths about biological objects (organisms), so the mathematician often discovers mathematical truths (he does not invent them all the time) and these truths are about mathematical objects. If one denies the existence of numbers, then it is hard to rescue mathematics as a field which conveys knowledge about something. Without numbers, mathematics becomes merely an internally consistent game which is invented. Without numbers mathematical and scientific knowledge is hard to maintain. But if numbers exist, physicalism as a worldview is false because numbers are not physical entities.
If physicalism is true, it is hard to see what one should make of the existence and nature of theories, meanings, concepts, propositions, the laws of logic, and truth itself. It would seem that theories themselves exist and can be discovered. The laws of logic seem to be real laws that govern the relationships between propositions. Propositions seem to exist and be the content of thoughts which become associated with the physical scratchings of a given langualge called sentences. Sentences may be made of black ink, be on a page, and be four inches long. But it is hard to see how the content of the sentence (i.e. the proposition or thought expressed by the sentence ) could be on the page. Such entities seem to be nonphysical entities which can be in the mind. Truth appears to be a relation of correspondence between a thought and the world. if a thought really describes the world accurately, it is true. It stands to the world in a relation of correspondence. But whatever else one wants to say about the relation of correspondence, it does not seem to be a physical relation like cause and effect.
Universals seem to exist and they are not material. A universal is an entity that can be in more than one place at the same time. Some universals are properties (redness, hardness, triangularity); others are relations (larger than, to the left of). Whatever else one may use to characterize the nature of matter, it is clear that a clump of matter is a particular. A piece of matter cannot be in more than one place at the same time. Physicalists deny the existence of universals at the level of general worldview, because universals are not physical entities. For example, just because one cannot see the soul, weigh it , or say where it is, it does not follow that the soul does not exist. One cannot see, weigh, or locate numbers or values, but they still exist.

Debunkers and sceptics can not change the fact that Mt. Sinai is Jabal al Lawz. Their saying, 'we still don't know" really means that they knowingly refuse to accept the fact that Ron Wyatt was the first "common person" to utilise the "common sense" method of archaeological discovery - the mother lode of real knowledge which "highly competent professional" archaeologists have yet to discover. Show me another mountain of any height, anywhere else with its granite rock peak burnt to a crisp!
Clarify please,,, are you saying that these archaeological sites are the only ones in Saudi Arabia to confirm what is Christianity's Old Testament? Just curious.
WOW.... this is not at ALL the way Jesus taught us to treat each other. He taught us to love our enemies... to embrace the lost.... to lead by example...
NOT to argue, falsly accuse each other, point fingers in anger...
Legalism in Christianity pushes people AWAY from Jesus. when non-believers make comments in doubt, don't let it anger you. PRAY for them instead. and lead them to the open arms of JESUS. <3 He loves them way more than we ever could.
Guys am Saudi too even the Jew don't allows the archeologists on Lot (PBUH) two cities but now we open the tourism u just need a Visa and it is very interesting area with many other cities ancient back to era before Moses himself
so if i wanted to climb mt sinai would i get in trouble? even if i wasnt an archeoligist? cuz when i get older i want to climb it and on the top i want to look at the stars =)
Mountain Of Fire - The Search For The True Mount Sinai is on youtube. just enter the title and search. also, to latayef, these are not fabricated pictures, as if you watch mountain of fire, there is a family who live in saudi arabia, and got to document the site over a period of 8 years.
