"When you find out the Earth is flat ... then you become empowered." - David Weiss, a businessman
"You feel like you've got a better handle on life and the universe. It's now more manageable." - Mark Sargent, a filmmaker
Both are flat earth believers who genuinely believes that what...
If from what I understood what you said, that you don't consider them to be atheist? If so, then that's the no scotsman fallacy. Atheism deals only with the existence of a god. They can still reject that a god exist and still believe in the supernatural.
And just like any other group, there...
That's the bait and switch fallacy. You're arguing that there's evidence for Baha’u’llah and what he did, such as taught a new religion to others, his family lineage etc. Then you switched your argument and turned these evidence into supposed evidence for his religious teachings. Evidence for...
You were correct the whole time that SkepticThinker was a pure atheist. And presently, if he doesn't believe that a god exist, then he's still a pure atheist. A hybrid of atheist and theist is a logical contradiction.
Genesis is an origin story, how the world came to be as it currently is. If the story started with, "In the beginning there was the world," then it would defeat the purpose of being an origin story.
Don't down play the knowledge of ancient people in order make your cherry picked prophets...
God did.
Are you god?
You never had free will to begin with. And this is the usual intellectually dishonest answer that those who accepts all that's mentioned in the OP. Why? Because you are ignoring the part where the all knowing god is also the creator.
If I knew that you will take route...
Ah.......another instance of posting articles containing information that one is ignorant of, I see.
People will remain being ignorant whenever they post articles thinking that its contains the information that they want it to contain.
But believing that we should go back to using only old tech, is one of the worst ideas even for a fantasy. But doesn't surprise me when that idea is coming from people who blames mankind for all the bad things that happened throughout history but for all the achievements done by mankind, credit...
No, I'm just telling you the reality. Religious wars don't have its effectiveness like how it was in the past. Although it has plenty of room for improvement, the world's population is not as ignorant as it was in the past.
Strawman. Why am I not surprised. :facepalm:
Perhaps not, but you are...
Now that the cat is out of bag, I'll tell you something so that you don't have to waste your time trying to do something that doesn't work. Religion is a weapon that will do no damage the "western" lifestyle. And if were specifically thinking of using Islam, then I suggest that you start forcing...
If we follow your line of reasoning from your argument, then "religion" will make climate change and disease even worse. It will actually speed up climate change. Why, you may ask? I'll gladly explain, again if we us your reasoning.
The Result of using "Religion" to solve climate change:
1. We...
I never claimed that science have determined that it is possible. So between the two of us in this conversation, you were the only one that claimed something to be true, when in fact, it is actually fasle. ;)
So to the majority, if not all, who becomes baha'i, it's necessary for them to give up their previous faith. If their previous religion said that their's is the true religion, then it's required for them to give up their previous faith before they can even be a baha'i.
