OverclockedJesus Posted:
Were your parents or any other prominent figures in your upbringing staunch atheists? I would posit that the pbumion you feel about atheism is directly related to your emotional attachment to certain beliefs about the absence of God. |

I was using popularity in the opposite way, to say “if it were really this easy to do, people would have caught wind of it (edit: scholars have and refuted this thinking centuries ago) and applied it by now”. Nothing this “easy” would have been some grand secret kept by OJ here. |

Hobart Bliggity Posted: Easy: it is just that simple.
Hobart Bliggity Posted: No it’s not. That you have such a problem does not mean everyone else does. Do NOT dare to presume that your foibles are everyone else’s. The ARROGANCE you have to dare believe that because you can’t do it, no one else can either.

Would you say you were turned off of religion and faith because of how blindly your family followed some arbitrary set of rules/tenets? |

OverclockedJesus Posted: Sorry for asking a third time, but could you explain why God can’t exist in a separate dimension with different rules? I still don’t get it…

DarkDespair5 Posted: Because all the dimensions are within the universe.
If you want god to be part of a different universe with different rules…what are the rules? What is existence like there? To speak of god existing when you say that there are different rules is the fallacy of stealing the concept. That is: you’re using a word (exist) while denying the basis for it (rules are different). It’s a form of begging the question.
I’ll be happy to explain further if you’re still confused. |

You’ve still answered 0 questions I’ve asked you. An excellent debate tactic, but you look like a barrel rolling weakling atm. |

Hobart Bliggity Posted: No, I’ve answered every valid question you’ve asked. I don’t answer nonsense questions.
You know, you’re not even a particularly good troll. |

No, you’ve answered none of the valid questions I’ve asked, and have simply chosen to only quote part of my posts and somehow feel smug about it. |
