Atheists and their jargon of insults

[vulcanlogician]

PS: Any supposed atheistic explanation of the origin of the universe is just philosophy. Who told philosophers that they are scientists?

Are you aware that philosophers were around before the scientific method was ever conceived of? Scientists came along and said, "Lol. We can prove things about nature at a level of precision that you thinky-*** philosophers could never dream of!"

And the philosophers were like: "Yeah. You got us there."

"We'll pretty much let you guys handle figuring things out about nature," they continued, "From now on we'll just stick to the fundamental questions like we always have. You guys did a better job understanding nature than we did. But we gave it a shot! And we were the only ones trying until you guys came along."

No philosopher worth her SALT thinks that philosophizing about the natural world will do a better job than the scientific method can. It would take some EXTREME form of arrogance and/or hubris to think that we could sit in our arm chair and declare meticulously-done, well-tested science is false. You know what I mean, Eli G?

Do you even know what philosophy is, Eli G? It's pretty typical for people to be largely ignorant of science and philosophy. And that's okay. Because usually those folks will just admit: I don't care about those two fields. There's plenty of science that I'm ignorant of.

The only time it's a problem is when you introduce the unholy trinity of:

1) The person doesn't care about the two fields.
2) The person is ignorant of the two fields.
and yet
3) The person considers themselves an expert on both fields.

Ice Cube once wrote a song called "Check Yo Self." Great song. Keep your eyes on the road, man!

I have pointed them out many times. You simply ignore or deny them. Don't worry, you will do the same again.

Asking for you to back up your baseless claim isn't ignoring or denying.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Asking for you to back up your baseless claim isn't ignoring or denying.

Oh please, you never ask for that until well after the fact. Then you want to play the way back game. Ask me when I post. Not pages later.

Now you're being rude.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Now you're being rude.

How is that rude? You can't be serious.

 

[Sgt. Pepper]

Now you're being rude.

In your opinion, of course.

 

[Laniakea]

How is that rude? You can't be serious.

I can be quite serious.

 

[Laniakea]

In your opinion, of course.

Which is just as valid as those accusing me of being rude or nasty.

 

[Subduction Zone]

I can be quite serious.

I see that you do not understand context. I keep forgetting that. That was a challenge to you to show how it was rude.

 

[Laniakea]

Ah, there you go being rude again.

 

[Valjean]

Psss. That sounds like magic.

Is gravity or mathematics magic?
I don't know why the natural laws and constants are what they are, but physics and chemistry work by their dictates. Call it what you will.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Ah, there you go being rude again.

No, you should be able to understand context. Do you remember how you failed with your attacks on Biden over the death of his son? You ignored context in those speeches of his.

Sometimes quantum dynamics seems like magic to me

Nope, I didn't, and you couldn't back up your claim that I did.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Nope, I didn't, and you couldn't back up your claim that I did.

I offered to do so and you ran away from the offer.

 

[Laniakea]

I offered to do so and you ran away from the offer.

I actually accepted your offer, and then you still refused to back up your claim, citing that I didn't ask politely enough, which only confirmed that you couldn't back up your claim.
You should just admit you made an error. I'd happily correct it for you, if you ask politely.

The offer only was that you had to admit that you did not understand what everyone else understood. If you could not admit that there was no point in trying to explain to you your error again.

IOW, I wasn't in error and you ran away from the opportunity to even make the case that I was.
You seem to forget that if you want to make a point, it's up to you to make it. It's not up to anyone else to make it for you.

 

[YoursTrue]

Nope, I didn't, and you couldn't back up your claim that I did.

Some people will get you no matter what. (in other words, they don't care...) what they say in particular as long as they keep maintaining they're right and you're not. I've seen from some of these posters that facts don't matter.and in fact can be irritating once an illogical point is brought forth. Interpretations don't matter, in other words, some, let's say, believe Jesus was really seeing a rich man get overheated in Hades while the poor man Lazarus was comfortable. So -- in the long or short run, I believe, hope and know that God is the Judge of mankind AND what's right and wrong.

"Magic", they say.
They say "miracles", "supernatural", etc etc etc ... they even say "spaghettis" and in their minds is an insult. So they are.

What is really "miracle" or "magic" or "supernatural" in an atheist mind?
IMHO, they are just things they cann't explain with their current personal knowledge ... and there is soooo much happening in the world right now that most people cann't explain, that I would say miracles are happening all the time and atheists cann't negate it. Insulting is the way their brains deal with

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary the first definition of Magic, Miracles and Supernatural are:

Magic:the use of means (such as charms or spells) believed to have supernatural power over natural forces
Miracles:an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs
Supernaturalf or relating to an order of existence beyond the visible observable universe

So, what is happening in the world right now that most people can't explain that you consider miracles and happening all the time?
