Re: Re: ranagrande Send a noteboard - 01/12/2010 04:04:38 AM
I should note, I don't feel that the Universe was created from nothing is true with massive certainty, I just want to point out that it's not outside the laws of physics, as you suggested. Certainly, I feel like something coming from nothing is just as likely -- actually much more so, considering its basis in physics -- than of something coming from any sort of deity.

That's cool; I can respect that. I just disagree.

If there is life in the solar system then it is likely a natural development in the universe. Tom - 30/11/2010 05:12:38 AM 785 Views

Seems to put atheists in a bit of a catch-22 there. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 05:54:25 AM 955 Views
Bwa? Craig - 30/11/2010 06:45:33 AM 841 Views

Well, I don't actually agree with the first part of your Catch-22. At least, not entirely. Tom - 30/11/2010 02:43:13 PM 871 Views
Using anthropomorphic terms to describe the universe only reflects on you, not on the universe. *NM* Dreaded Anomaly - 30/11/2010 07:31:04 PM 374 Views
What an arbitrary and meaningless statement. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 07:52:13 PM 312 Views
Anthropomorphizing concepts is a cognitive bias. Dreaded Anomaly - 30/11/2010 11:19:23 PM 738 Views
Only given a certain metaphysical framework. Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 12:18:09 AM 786 Views
Mind dumbing that down a bit? Isaac - 01/12/2010 12:43:47 AM 746 Views

That ain't not a lot simpler Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:35:38 AM 856 Views
Yes. Darth_Katie - 01/12/2010 01:44:41 AM 818 Views
In short, demanding that everyone use your particular worldview is unfair. Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 02:21:26 AM 829 Views
Those worldviews are unsupported by empirical evidence. Dreaded Anomaly - 01/12/2010 01:41:27 AM 942 Views
No worldviews are supported by empirical evidence. *NM* ranagrande - 01/12/2010 01:57:23 AM 353 Views
Empiricism is unsupported by empirical evidence. *NM* Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 02:21:52 AM 318 Views
Empirical evidence is the only objective standard. Dreaded Anomaly - 01/12/2010 02:59:18 AM 793 Views
Empirical evidence cannot fully explain reality. ranagrande - 01/12/2010 03:28:41 AM 898 Views

Interesting. I agree with what you're saying, actually. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 07:49:51 PM 716 Views
It won't change the argument in the least. Dannymac - 01/12/2010 05:26:16 AM 907 Views
I have the feeling it's probably not going to be that. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 06:02:48 AM 798 Views

I'll not bow to any mere Bacterial Overlords, Eukaryote Overlords only!!! *NM* Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:02:20 AM 338 Views
So you're prejudiced against the nuclearly challenged? ranagrande - 01/12/2010 01:09:57 AM 750 Views
It's this kind of blind adherence to political correctness that is tearing us apart! Darth_Katie - 01/12/2010 01:28:39 AM 729 Views
Down right genocidal toward them Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:31:47 AM 731 Views
