But there isn’t. What is more, you just carry on with the broken record without addressing the variety of relevant points I have made to you. You could do no better than this to shout your insecurity in this belief system that has hijacked your mind.

Hi Stuart,I have documented the “Proof” of God's existence.
But since it isn't a 8×10 color photo of God, you call it ambiguous?Witnessing to the world in behalf of YHVH (Psalm 45:17)
יהוה האלהים (JEHOVAH GOD) YÄ-hä-vā hä ĔL-ō-Hêêm!
Ed J (Joshua 22:34 / Isaiah 49:16 / Isaiah 60:14)
http://www.holycitybiblecode.org
I don't see why I shouldn't ask for a photograph! Can you explain convincingly why that would not be a reasonable request, without giving the kind of pointless platitudes that t8 gave?Stuart
Hi Stuart,Asking for scientific evidence is reasonable,
but not accepting it is unreasonable!
This is the game your playing!Witnessing to the world in behalf of YHVH (Psalm 45:17)

Do you have an answer to my question about why you should not be expected to produce a photograph of your god?Stuart
Hi Stuart,Sure, spirit doesn't photograph; you see with Spiritual understanding!
John 3:3: Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.John 3:5-8 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth,
and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth:
so is every one that is born of the Spirit. You cannot tell who is “Born Again” by looking at a photograph of them!God bless

Two meaningless statements from you Ed, and five from whichever of the anonymous “John”s wrote the extract from your book of mythology.What are you trying to say?

Hi Stuart,What both me and John are saying is…
You cannot see Spirit with the natural eye,
but you can see the evidence of Spirit's effect.God bless

http://www.holycitybiblecode.orgQuote (t8 @ Sep. 08 2010,21:42) Quote (Stu @ Sep. 08 2010,21:31) Do you feel better admitting they are platitudes, t8? There is no question that they are. I can't remember the last time you actually explained something using the kind of cause and effect argument that you are always demanding others give. Stuart
Stu, I am talking to you on your level.When you can demonstrate and open mind and an honest approach, then I might spend sometime doing that very thing. Until then, I will answer you in a way that shows up the flaws in your thinking.
Would you give a pig a $200 meal from the fanciest restaurant in Wellington or give him scraps that he will chew on for a long time?
But know this, that even scraps have heaps of nutrition, so don't be too offended. There is plenty for you in my answers for where you are at. And let's face it, you do come back for more and more.
About what have I not been completely and transparently honest? About what have I equivocated? At what stage have I tried to fob you off with an absurd analogy that has no meaningful content? My mind concedes the tiniest of probabilities that you are right: I am agnostic and cannot prove you wrong. Do you concede even a tiny amount that I could be right? Actually who has the open mind between us?What flaw has there been in my thinking? Can you explain why it is a flaw? Would that explanation actually be an explanation, or would it be a fantasy religious description that is devoid of meaning as have been all of your statements about your Imaginary Friend?
There is nothing in your answers that anyone could sustain intellectual nutrition from. I am attracted by this curiosity of humans that they can attempt to bluff their way though responses to questions about their own belief systems while demanding the most exacting and detailed explanations from others. Add to that their habit of dismissing those considered and detailed explanations without any detailed counter-arguments at all.
Which is exactly what you have done in this thread.

And you think the evidence is to be seen in numerology, yet you have not analysed that “evidence” for commonplace coincidence and human intent. Actually others here have analysed it for you and shown you there is nothing special about your numbers, but like t8 you just dismiss those very valid criticisms without any detail of your own. It would be unjust for anyone to find your “evidence” believable. It is also not unambiguous, because it is evidence that the writers of scripture were very clever. It is also evidence that the writers were ignorant, but the Flying Spaghetti Monster (bhna) coordinated the whole thing. Which fantasy explanation do you prefer? The Judeo-christian god fantasy? It is no different to any of the other explanations.Stuart

Hi Stuart,So their unprofessional analysis is acceptable to you(because you agree),

You have demonstrated that you do not know more about the analysis of this material than others. Actually you have admitted that in the past. You said you had not submitted your numbers to professional statisticians. So it is a bit rich that you criticise others as “unprofessional”.Are you claiming that you are a professional in numerology?
That is like claiming to be an expert in fairies. It would be credible to be an expert in why people believe in fairies, but not to be an expert in the fairies themselves.

No flaw, Ed. The facts are dichotomous, but the belief that you cannot know with certainty whether a particular god exists or not is not a dichotomy. Neither is there a dichotomy in making a provisional conclusion that in the absence of unambiguous evidence (yours is ambiguous, remember?) there is no such thing as any gods.You are claiming that the existence of a god and the non-existence of the same god are mutually exclusive. Why would you make non-existence an impossible property of your god? It can do anything, can't it, including not existing?!

Hi Stuart,No, the beliefs are dichotomous; the FACTS are the facts.
Facts cannot be dichotomous; this is the FLAW in your thinking!Facts undoubtedly PROVE the existence of GOD!
It's your inability to correlate these FACTS that's the problem!The dichotomy is: you admit that 'you' cannot know with certainty that God (according to Stuart) doesn't exist.

You would be making the mistake of thinking that a provisional conclusion is a statement of absolute truth. It is not. I can live with uncertainty and analyse the world according to the most probable explanations.The problem is that you are trying to depict the world in dichotomous terms, when the more useful way to view it is by probability and uncertainties.
The likelyhood of the existence of your god is not zero, but it is so close to zero that it is reasonable to carry on as if it doesn't exist. In your way of thinking, there is no possibility that other gods exist, only your god. You cannot know that as a certainty, in fact you even call it a faith position. If you were to use the word probability then your god would become an absurdity for you because you are not expressing faith in it. That is an intellectually dishonest way of looking at things, in my opinion, especially when you claim as often as you do to have evidence.

Stu and his kind are what the Scriptures warns us about.
These are the people who win high awards for misleading the whole inhabited earth – sons of Satan. They receive their reward early and pay for their pleasure with eternal death.
They cannot be persuaded – these are no “Idi Amin” (Last King of Scotland – the film!) that they can say “I knew you were right – But YOU Did not persuade me!”
Just been reading some of the backpost in this thread
– Boy Stu is one tough cookie …
– I would even go as far as to say: “The FARCE is strong with this one!” (Darth Vader – Star Wars ep 1 – “the Lost Hope” – is that what it was called?)
Stu pot, I see you addressed a question or two to me – What were they again – I don't always have time to waste with Insentients so i missed what you were blithering on about and seeking Proof for something or other.
What is it you want me to Prove – I won't be able to prove it but you can't DISprove it either – whatever it is.
But you will feel the effect of your disapproval of the notion of it – what ever it is?
Oh, by the way, your writing is getting desperate … your 'undertones' are beginning to show…
Ah, Stu pot,
“You are a worthy adversary” as Moriarty says of Sherlock Holmes.
You are “a God”, “a Mighty One”, bestowed with power and authority from the Evil one himself, even the Fallen Prince and original serpent, Satan and Lucifer, by popular Calling/Naming (Title turned Name)
I read your tone and you are indeed strong and I feel inadequate in your presence. Your delusion and “Love of the halfling Weed” has fettered your mind – the quick fix, puffed up with smoking pride (Hey Edj, I saw what you wrote ; Are you even Sleeping with this Enemy! Remember that if you lie down with mangy inebriated Science dogs you''ll wake up with Irrational fractional Fleas!)
hey, Stu, did you ever answer my question about irrational numbers?
