How do you know if the mind cannot live without a brain ? One would have to die in order to know that, and since you are not dead you don't know. It is reasonable to speculate that the mind may not exist without a brain, but that is not definitive. It's a paradox. We can only know the answer to...
The question of God, a Creator, an Intelligent Designer is all speculation. It is a matter of personal individual faith and freedom to choose what to believe in in this experience of life as we know it. It's not a matter of science, physical brains or the mind. We can't know what happens to our...
These discussions will go on and on, around and around forever. Do you not understand everyone has their own world views,opinions, beliefs and faiths regardless of what anyone else thinks ? Do some of you really feel that egotistical, self-righteous need to negate other human's beliefs , views...
99% of all politicians are corrupt, power hungry, egotistical, selfish, bought-off, spineless, hypocritical, conniving cretins. They don't have the interest and welfare of the American people in mind. They are part of an elitist corrupt gang run by people much more powerful than themselves. They...

Is there an argument for the existence of God?
This is mi final post here. I will not be back to read any feedback. I already know how the irrational atheists will respond. Everyone can and does choose what to believe, including every single person on this or any forum. It's not for me to...
" Real to them makes perfect sense."
People can get too philosophical in this topic of discussion and have different definitions of belief, truth and choice and there are varying degrees of these terms that apply to different circumstances. You say you would argue the latter, I see no need...
I understand your point, I think it is a matter of semantics and wording. People have no evidence of whether God exists but still make a choice to believe in one. People don't know if aliens exist but some make a choice to believe they do.They could have made a choice that they don't exist...
I completely believe in the scientific method and study science , physics, math, astronomy, etc...all the time. I just don't think empirical evidence of material matters is all that defines every aspect of life. I don't take to organized religions nor people of faith who deny science or who...
"Except that his point isn't about probability. He's merely making the point that it is reasonable and consistent to say that something is possible while also saying that one doesn't believe the claim. It's irrelevant which of those two ideas one considers less likely to be true."
I agree with...
You are the one continuously telling people they are " wrong."
And there's nothing to settle. Everyone has their own beliefs and opinions. What do you think you are going to settle ?
I didn't say you were wrong, I said I don't agree. I'm not saying you are right either. I can respect your opinion and not agree. Thus my name : NoRightOrWrong.
I think it is a personal to choice to believe or not believe in something, regardless of evidence or lack of evidence. People choose to believe aliens exist. That is their belief, and they made that choice to believe that. And I am not convinced God is a reality, only a reasonable possibility.
I don't know either, and I'm fine with not knowing too. But I don't find a reason or need to tell others that believe one way or the other that their views and beliefs are unreasonable in regards to what we don't know. What is the motivation behind doing that to someone ? People come to their...
I already did in quite some length. If you can't comprehend it, I don't know what to tell you. I can't comprehend it for you. And I didn't say a Creator is necessary , I said the belief in the possibility of one is completely reasonable. I can grasp the reasoning of choosing to not believe in a...
And I think you are wrong and unreasonable in your assessment. Around and around we'll go. It's all opinion and yours won't influence mine and mine won't influence yours. What makes sense and what is viewed as gullible or not will lay in the beholder. I find it gullible to be convinced of...
