Default Re: Evidence that God exists

"if there was no god, man would be forced to invent one"

-Tillich (i think it's his quote)

***the validity proofing question on a God theory: what is the criteria that would disprove your theory? if there is no such criteria, then the theory is not scientifically valid.

There you go equivocating again. You're using definition 2), while trying to maintain the connotations of definition 1). You've gotta learn to stop doing that.

You're the most maddening person I've ever had a debate with. You're obviously welll-read and intelligent, and capable of discussing some fairly sophisticated subjects. But anytime you get backed against the wall in an argument, you just drop any semblance of reason. You go from logic to "I'm not going to question God", or just simply talk in circles.

It's pathetic and I don't see any reason to discuss anything else with you.
