Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
And here is a perfect example of a skeptic seeing what they WANT and not what is there: 1. Aquinas may be wrong in his insistence that there can't be an infinite regress of anything. Aquinas takes it as a given that there had to be a starting point for everything. Talk about indoctrination. Aquinas...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
Here a molecular biologist talks about some of the issues surrounding speciation, per adaptive changes in multi-cellular organisms reproducing sexually, involving whether a species becomes a genetically, phenotypically, and behaviorally distinct species: https://reasons.org/explore/blogs/theorems-t...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
I stand by my statement that German Shepards ans Chiuahuahs cannot breed.You believe life evolves so much based on faith and assumption that you fail to see the flaw.But the fact is that scientists already know that there are many examples where the life is supposed to have evolved and yet it can s...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
What about the other TOE's? And why bring up Darwin's "Origin of Species"? That has been updated quite a bit since then. What other ToE's? Since the Theory has been updated, are the updates correct? Other than Radiometrics and Genetics, what are some of these updates? Don Wow, you don't k...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
OK! Now that we know speciation is a myth.Let's actually get into the evidence used as examples of evolution so that everybody can see it only demonstrates it leads to normal variation amongst the populations and from this kind of evidence everything else about the theory of evolution and how life ...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
For an educator who claims to value honesty, you sure don't practice what you preach, do? I asked you to cite your source where Leibniz said everything is necessary and you deliberately sidestepped it. Some might think you are being obtuse but I believe it is a classic case of willful ignorance, fo...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
First of all, your quoting is atrocious. I had to (painfully) read your entire post just so to decipher what is attributed to you and what is attributed to others. In any case, I will only comment on the below, since it seems to me to be a reply to my post (and not to anything Philip said). Let's m...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
Truly: Everything that we see in Nature, has a cause. Everything in Nature that is caused has a reason WHY it is caused. Just genius! No, just what has exhaustively been observed to be true. Truly: Some causes may be a collection of causes that produce a single cause. Effects can have one or many c...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
Many have pointed out that contemporary philosophers misunderstand Aquinas' arguments. There is a growing number who are claiming Aquinas' arguments have indeed been misunderstood and people have simply been knocking down caricatures. I myself, like you, was suspicious when Jac on this board presen...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
Truly: Tell me Philip, what are the tools that people of the 21st Century need to ponder and pontificate Metaphysical and Ecclesiastic questions... We can look for evidence that strongly seems to require an explanation that transcends the physical - as science overwhelmingly asserts, per many types...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
TrulyE: Since he did not have 21st Century knowledge to work with, he could only use his logic and reason to answer ecclesiastic and metaphysical questions. Um, I'm pretty sure YOU, in THIS century don't have any more tools to ponder the metaphysical than did Aquinas - as science can't do the metap...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
FYI, Offspring is a mass noun. A mass noun is a noun without a plural form. :mrgreen: Thank you for your grammatical due diligence. I will certainly give its importance and relevance, all the consideration it deserves. Was there something else you wanted to add, that would at least be considered pe...
