When you use poor reasoning you are not having a discussion. You are only preaching at best.Mmm .. let's have a discussion about discussion.
..anything other than the topic at hand.

The only thing that indicates is how overly impressed true believers are in their lack of evidence. I would think that for a person that brags about all the evidence you have for God that you don't mention any of it. If SubZone was writing your posts we would laugh because it would be a funny parody of a believer.I refer you to my post that I made recently..
Look them up on wikipedia .. they are there for all to see.
As if it isn't completely obvious - I want to discuss them!It certainly implies that there are facts about God, of course .. because there are.
..as I say, if there were not, we would have nothing to discuss.
Because you said there are facts and probabilities about god(s). Good grief.Why?
It is subjective, unlike the facts, isn't it?
It is dependent on what we know, and how we evaluate it.
A lazy man's way of debate. If you have no idea why you believe, or any idea of the supposed evidence you have to support your belief, then it is you that has something to learn. You have as serious deficiency of ability to defend what you think is real and true in debate.I refer you to my post that I made recently..

They are not "my claims" .. I am not a prophet, or anything like that.And why is it so difficult to get you to answer questions about your claims?
Some probablities are .. they depend on how you evaluate data.Probabilities aren't subjective..

Then seriously, what on earth are you doing on a discussion board? Seriously.As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing to discuss, if you believe all religions are fiction.
You have already made your choice.
Nope.Some probablities are .. they depend on how you evaluate data.
..and clearly, you do not process data in the same way as I do.
Pulling numbers out of your backside isn't how we calculate probabilities.eg.
...........All religions are fiction, so it is a fact that no gods are known to exist .. hence less than 0.00001% [wrong]
...........I don't know whether God exists .. hence 50%
"It's all damned lies and statistics"Don't be ridiculous. Probabilities are straight up math problems. You plug numbers into an equation, and you get an answer..
No, it's more like 100%You believe in a very specific God. The probability of that God existing is not 50%.
Nope and nope."It's all damned lies and statistics"
No, it's more like 100%
Pulling numbers out of your backside isn't how we calculate probabilities.
So are you arguing that probabilities are just pulled out of our backsides?Probability maths is highly subjective and open to interpretation.
I know It has even been used to examine the likelihood of Messanic claims.

That is now how you calculate probabilities. Just because there are two possible outcomes does not mean that the odds are fifty percent.eg.
...........All religions are fiction, so it is a fact that no gods are known to exist .. hence less than 0.00001% [wrong]
...........I don't know whether God exists .. hence 50%
Your claim, your burden of proof.No, I see they need to be discussed and decided upon.
Using probability maths will confirm a Messenger, the key here is, what is used from the evidence to determine the factors that will be used and the probability numbers.

Your claim, your burden of proof.
Just be careful what sort of "logic" that you use.
When I turn this rock over I may find a diamond worth over $10,000.00. Since it could be there or could not be there the odds are obviously 50%, right? I will sell you my rights to that potential diamond for only $1,000.00. That is quite a deal considering the 50/50 odds.
No, you are now just telling everyone that all you have is bull****. You are insulting your own version of God when you do this.It has been done by others. For Jesus many have had a few attempts.
It has been done by some for Baha'u'llah.
If one is interested, they can look them up. I think one was by GL Mathews for Baha'u'llah.
Regards Tony
How come you can understand this when it comes to rocks and diamonds but you can't for your magical beliefs?Bad bet, not a 50/50 as many more probabilities need to be considered, one is if a diamond was actually put under a rock. Then how many rocks are there it could have been under?
Regards Tony
That number only reflects the number of posts where you bluff."It's all damned lies and statistics"
No, it's more like 100%
Statistical models use data, and the more data th better the predictive power. That makes them anywhere from subjective to objective, it just depends on the data.Probability maths is highly subjective and open to interpretation.
Well that would be low level data and highly subjective conclusions if there is bias on the part of true believers.I know It has even been used to examine the likelihood of Messanic claims.
