If solipsism is the notion that your mind is all that exists THEN it would be fine.
If you define solipsism similarly to his statement stating that you can't know what is outside of your mind then the statement is false.
I know that. By the way my statement didn't speak about "the truth when i see it" but to accept "what I see as truth". There is a difference.
Of course i can't proove that to you. I do not know why i should at all.
You asked (me) about it (/myself) and i answered. I do claim from myself that i...
It seems very easy to evade certain questions by postulating limitations of human logic when it comes to beings such as god.
I would warn you of such easy statements. You see if you define our logic and "wisdom" as nonsense in the sight of some other being then you actually dismantle any...
Will have a look at the link and your other questions later.
Just a small variation of the sentence showing my initial thoughts when reading your threads title.
"Can drinking alcohol be an escape from an ugly life?"
"Can using drugs be an escape from an ugly life?"
"Can lying to yourself be an...
I wonder if you yourself know what you wrote above.
You asked whether (in this case me) accepted irrefutable proof for God or the bible if it existed.
I said yes. And not only for the bible or God but even more generally. I accept truth no matter what it looks like as long as it is prooven...
Love does in a relationship normally come with sexual desire. We are not all platonic theoretic lovers are we ?
So i ask my question again slightly modified for you.
"If you think homosexuality is a choice then you might ponder if you could "choose" to feel sexual affection for someone of the...
You didn't answer my question. I repeat it therefore:
"But of course what you are lacking (what most ToE "opponents" are lacking) is a proper alternative. Even one that is "only" equal and not better."
Well, the quran supposedly has the same use, the torah as well and hundreds of other books.
It never stops to amaze me how one could bring forth the argument of morality.
Basically the "west" has a christian tradition and still believe in christianity.
Those that believe it get away with it (amongst each other) because they believe it.
Generally many still have problems breaking with the traditions and claiming something as evil which a significant number of...
I (by principle) follow/accept what i see as truth.
If you could provide me with irrefutable evidence or even "only" with evidence that is better than the one present at the moment then i would of course accept that evidence for as long as no better evidence was presented (well if its...
If you think homosexuality is a choice then you might ponder if you could "choose" to love someone of the same gender as you.
Since for a theist like you God is the ultimate cause you just did a very sinful thing.
I see this differently.
But thic claim aside ... surely you have some better alternative dont you? If evolution is so wrong, what then in your view is correct?
[/SIZE][/B]Interesting quote... seems evolution has entered the third stage for most educated people already
Look at your argument...
Claim 1: ToE didnt come from looking at THE evidence
Reason?: The evidence BELOW wasnt around
Conclusion: First a theory was presented, then data came and was being interpreted to support the theory.
This "chain" of statements is "obviously" full of gaps. I am not going...
When i was in the usa (only for three days i must say) i haven't seen any sauna except for one. The biggest difference for me (leaving the cloth issue aside) was the temperature and the ambience. It was not very hot nor really relaxing A nice lady told me the temperature was so low (i guess...
Haven't been to dutch saunas yet. (only to some nice cities in the netherlands with nice people).
In germany saunas are for both genders (and kids) and people use them naked.
I had a collegue who stayed here for a week and went with me.
She was very courageous in the face of such dangers as...
