So - I said it was a guess. A guess is not a fact to attempt to build an argument !!
How do you deduce this. The person who is beig tested is not aware of the fact that he is being tested.
This is too obvious to warrant a reply !
Sometimes I am sure Abraham knew it was just a test because he believed that his God was a God of life. (Just guessing!)
Not me in the first place. This was more a general statement based on what others said long before I followed their example..
Yeah based on a minuscule human point of view.
Plants are sentient but do not have a conventional human type brain. (Do an Internet search "Sentient plants")
A bit of out of the box thinking not based on how humans are is required; but then again if it is not materialistic, perceived as solid...
Tricky wot? Abraham was told to do so as a test, but God gave him a goat to sacrifice in place of his son.
But changing your deity to God is a bit unfair.
I am of the opinion that it is the scribes/prophets who inserted their own vengeful feelings into the writings.
bats - they can hear ultra-sonics,
Dogs - How do you know that they cannot categorize that which they smell?
Bats and birds do not require artificial means to fly.
You mean you do not wish to be faced by the ubacceptable as quoted in that video.
Emphatic claims shift the onus to the claimant.
Your post, to me, merely indicates that we are basing our views on our own perceptions. But hey we are outdone by dogs, bats, birds etc so I guess with our limited senses we because we change our environment - in many cases for the worse - we...
Yes. But why ?
Methinks it is the conversion by the sword and over-zealous scribes who wrote this into the Koran.
In fact, the quran refers to Prophet Muhammad as “Rehmatul-lil-Alameen” or “the one bringing compassion for all worlds.”
It is written - I am that I am - Brahma can be any gender or be genderless as can be seen in all the manifestations (in Hinduism) as depicted by his avatars.
Yin and Yang depict more than gender. they depict that for everything there is an opposite which must be balanced.
In context the red herring is yours.
Nope you said there are people with brains leaving your statement wide open to interpretation.
You are limiting all things to your perception or reality based on your "written in stone" attitude.
Again - plants are sentient but they do not have...
People and their brains make up a unity. Neither possess the other. The backbone to Outhouse's argument suggests that there are brainless people !!
Plants have been found to be sentient, but do they have conventional brains?
