Aside from the rape metaphor intended to put me in my place as a female, this statement is an avoidance of the fact that no evidence of God's existence has yet been presented. With the evidence we have now, God is no more than a fictional character or an imaginary friend.



Vague presentation of the Argument From Design referred to previously multiple times.

All this talk of rape makes me concerned about your wife.


Thanks for sparing us that.

You mean pictures of my dog and books? Sorry, no.

True. Obviously.

It was all in her mind. Really.

Yes, but it all depends very much what the belief is based upon.

I am part of a group of people who express ideas on this forum. Many of them are atheists, and all are people worth knowing. I do not stand alone on the issue discussed here in this thread, and I welcome everyone's input. I am not in any mental anguish over whether God exists. I simply do not believe. However, I will ask anyone who asserts the existence of God to offer proof (of the type above) of that assertion before passing judgement upon me or other atheists for not believing.

You're not wrong.

I contest that she is already open-minded. Open-mindedness does not in no way equate to gullibility to faith or the willingness to believe whatever feels good. Open-mindedness refers to one accepting facts that are presented.

You offer no facts for your beliefs, Egor. That's why she's not gonna believe you.

Egor, I'm afraid I must ask you to reconcile the above.

How does two-faced, lying hypocritical shitstain sound?

Accurate.

Seeing as Fairy Tinkerbell was good enough to share their fantasies, I thought it only fair that a response be given in kind.
Unfortunately, as part of the poverty stricken group that Fairy Nuff seems to despise and not being able to afford a really good snazzy response. I thought it might be an idea to just recap on Fairy liquids religion and, perhaps, have a wander through its wonderland of fantasy and fabrication.

So we have:

• God, who is a man, but isn't really real...
• God is the "stuff" what is around you, except it isn't at the moment, but was once. (or vicky vercky)
• Prior to this state, God was not what he is, but rather, what he was before he wasn't what he is now.

God defined - check

• Jesus is what you can become.
• Not to be confused with the real Jesus, who didn't exist previously, BUT, had simply become Jesus after becoming what he wasn't before then.
• Being your own personal Jesus (or an ethereal simulacra thereof) IS NOT to be confused with God
• Jesus is real but does not exist. Whereas, God exists but is not real.

Jesus defined - check

Now, the spiritual or religious tenets are called "The Veridian Mind Meld" this comes from a poor understanding of pig-latin and means cobbled together.
This seems to entail bits and pieces of other religions and spiritual ideas clumped together using spit and kleenex...Baha'i, Hundu, Buddhism,wiccyup etc.
So, it does not appear to be very original, but it does appear to be pretty exclusive.

Religion - check

How about that exclusivity ? We already know that Fairy Cakes is a bit of an anti. From the posts (I like to like to think of them as the dichotomy of the necessary and the contingent, tee hee) we can discern...
anti-Poor
anti- Woman
anti-race
anti-abortion
anti-reason
anti-freedom
anti-intellect
So it seems to have all the hallmarks of a top-notch religion. I therefore commend it to the house.

I also detect a delusional disorder (grandiose type) which again lends to it a certain amount of religious credibility.

This last part of course has no evidential base as I am not a head quack. however I have given Fairy Lights a damn good looking at and, in laymans terms....he's, has mad as a box of fuckin' frogs.

Anywhere near do you think ?

This is a masterpiece. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

You have illustrated very well how the previous couple of posts by Egor have made my brain hurt.

Must go get some coffee now.

:thumbsup:

Excellent summary Sol, I may have preferred the pre-edited version, but fantastic all the same.

SG, be careful if your going to a coffee shop for that coffee, your actions may be mistaken by a heathen male, and you may be obliged to have sex with him.

Thanks for the warning, but I can take care of myself, never fear. I still have the option to say NO, or even NO WAY.....



:)

:heart:

Or, if you happen to bump into Ex researching the young heathens, you could go for the third option of a swift foot to the nuts. :)

Unlikely, I almost never resort to physical violence, unless I'm trying to open one of those "easy-to-open" cheese packages. But that's another story.

Besides, it's what I say that really annoys him. And I always seem to have something to say, unfortunately.

Nothing wrong with that, it is far better than having nothing to say, or just repeating the same thing because you have nothing new to say.

I too always have something to say, unfortunately it is usually complete rubbish, but as my dear pa used to say "its the taking part that counts son, don't beat yourself up about being shit"

I think your posts reflect otherwise, but, still, your father's saying is unique, if anything......

My personal favourite was when i showed him my first school report from senior school. He tossed it to one side, folded his hands in his lap, and said "well son, the world will always need shithouse attendants"

It still makes me chuckle even now. :)
