An Ontological Proof that God Does Not Exist

[Tiberius]

Some people make wishes and think it's reality. Your comment is an example of that.

And yet you keep coming back, wanting me to treat this as a serious argument.

When you make statements, questions will be asked. That's how a forum works.

And you, for some reason known only to yourself, seem to think that I must rigorously defend something which was only ever presented as a parody!

You have misunderstood what a parody is Tiberius.

 

[BilliardsBall]

And so are fairies and leprechauns and ginormous dragons who live in caves on top of mountains of treasure!

I tend to accept the views regarding demons more when the person knows God as well.

Either way, it doesn't make sense. Parody or not parody.

Well there you go, I nailed it.

 

[Sheldon]

Because not only are demons real, they are invisible entities.

I don't believe you, since you are simply making an unevidenced assertion, Hitchens's razor applies.

Well of course, why wouldn't you use confirmation bias, it's like you can demonstrate any objective evidence for your beliefs after all.

Let me know when you have something of value to add to the discussion, will you? I'm going back to sleep.

 

[Tiberius]

I tend to accept the views regarding demons more when the person knows God as well.

So you tend to agree with people when the person holds the same views as you.

Can we say "echo chamber"?

From someone who cut and pasted a joke, thinking a joke is a parody, and that a parody is a joke later, calling it an ontological argument, without understanding what that even means, I doubt you have any capacity to engage with anything "valuable". For someone who makes statements like you made, this is the only kind of response deserved.

Study something for at least a few minutes next time prior to cutting and pasting.

Lol, there you go! Ridiculous either way.

It seems you don't understand what a parody is...

A quick google search is lame Tiberius. We are talking about a parody in philosophical discourse, not what it means in a dictionary. This is absurd.

A parody in philosophy is not a joke. A joke is a joke. I kept giving you the real information to try and drill it into you. But you have no intention having that kind of conversation.

 

[BilliardsBall]

I don't believe you, since you are simply making an unevidenced assertion, Hitchens's razor applies.

Firstly, evidence includes the universality of symptoms of possession--people even arriving in the New World found the western natives practicing the same speaking in tongues, etc. on distant continents.

Second, evidence includes testimonies and documents going back thousands of years.

Third, I have personal experience with persons relieved of demonic possession.

So don't tempt me, Frodo! I'm here to HELP you.

 

[BilliardsBall]

Well of course, why wouldn't you use confirmation bias, it's like you can demonstrate any objective evidence for your beliefs after all.

I've already offered to prove using objective evidence that God exists and even that Jesus is God.

All I ask is you do the easier proof, first--prove you exist--I can only accept objective evidence for your existence, not subjective evidence. YOUR RULES (if, of course, you actually exist!).

You're missing something obvious. 99% of persons are in my chamber. And most of us think atheists either are yet to encounter God or have done so and are living in denial.

Further, this denial affects lifestyle. Every ex-Christian I know who is now an atheist LOVES to share theological reasons why they are enabled to live in sin.

Yeah, only fools look to a dictionary to find the meaning of a word. What a joke those dictionaries are! What sort of loser would ever turn to one?

Oh, there's a joke here alright. Several, in fact. I keep responding to them.

Yeah, that's why 99% of the world get on just fine with no religious differences whatsoever. Honestly, if I rolled my eyes any harder, I'd be able to see my own brain.

Further, this denial affects lifestyle. Every ex-Christian I know who is now an atheist LOVES to share theological reasons why they are enabled to live in sin.

Wow, that's about the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. You do realise that we atheists don't live our lives spending each day justifying why we shouldn't believe in God, right?

When you spout nonsense like this, you only reveal to everyone that you think atheists treat atheism the same way Christians treat Christianity. Like it's something that takes over your whole life. It's not. But when you tell stories that have your so-called atheists treating it like that, you are only revealing that you don't know what you're talking about. And since you don't know, you guess, and your guesses are based off the most ridiculous things.

Really? I didn't know that. Thanks for the enlightenment.

But read what I said again so that you could understand a little better. In Philosophy some people called philosophers use words to mean something more advance in definition. That's why being simple minded and looking in a dictionary just for an argument is absurd.

Oh, there's a joke here alright. Several, in fact. I keep responding to them.

Your OP was a joke. I told you many times. I even gave you the historical information, names, the one who said it and the one who narrated. You just don't want to accept what someone says for some reason.

These things are nothing knew. It's very well known, and has been known for a long long time.
