Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
What Aquinas came up with is genius for making a philosophical point and yet so simple to understand and in the 13th century too. I doubt he knew then that science would one day hundreds of years into the future confirm him correct,yet science has.It is simple but packs a powerful philosophical pun...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
Here is a big reason why I reject the Theory of Evolution.Evolution does not have a credibile mechanism for how life evolves.Variation amongst the populations is not even close to being evidence life evolves and yet scientists demonstrate normal variation amongst the populations and they use this e...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
Truly: I would never have posted anything at all, if I hadn't seen your thread about the extraordinary scientific proof that proved the existence of God. So, are you suggesting that I post only non-scientific, metaphysical and philosophical mumbo-jumbo, or go elsewhere? Of course not - many Christi...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
So out of my entire post, you found one word("design"), to comment on. Even when cherry-picking a post, questioning semantics is a bit desperate by any standards. In hindsight I should have said "..just the way they were MEANT TO FUNCTION ". Clearly I won't make that mistake aga...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
Topic 4: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale First we must make a few inductive and deductive assumptions, based on our intuition and common sense. We must accept that less complicated and specialized life-forms existed before more complex and specialized life-forms did....

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
Truly: Since we are the only species among the millions of other species that can even conceive of a God, I'd say that nature would not be considered Godly. I haven't the foggiest as to what that statement means? Truly: I can't explain how life wasn't designed(which would assume that it was), anymo...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
I've read your posts. Clearly, you're an intelligent guy. Ignorant things are what I underlined in your quote. Aquinas states that everything that moves must have had something to move it. This basically is the first and second laws of motion. He then concluded that because the Universe had a start...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
For an intelligent guy, you really say some ignorant things. I never claimed to be intelligent, that is a claim that others make ABOUT you. But thank you for the insult. Maybe you would like to address, specifically, some of those ignorant things? Don I've read your posts. Clearly, you're an intell...

Re: The Truth Surrounding the Theory of Evolution and its Rationale
I'd like to avoid using labels altogether. They tend to insulate people from their own true nature, and blind them to the nature of their own truth. Although I maintain a more liberal point of view(not the Liberal party's ideology), it is only because this is the only ideology that is fueled by cha...

Re: Skepticism and the Principle of Sufficient Reason
After reading through this thread I have noticed some things that bother me about skeptics.First off they usually have alot of scientific knowledge as with this skeptic and they take their scientific knowledge and use it while adding in irrational arguments to it and yet it can seem so convincing b...
