What Is The Invisible Pink Unicorn Argument? by OLAADEGBU(m): 11:58am On Sep 08, 2016
Since the existence of an invisible pink unicorn cannot be disproved, Is belief in an Invisible Pink Unicorn (IPU) just as valid as belief in God?

OLAADEGBU:

This nonsense is fashionable amongst Oyinbo Atheists.

They create a LIE, and say that they have connected it to a TRUTH, and then say that when their LIE is disproved, they have disproven the larger and previously-existing Truth as well.

For example, they say, that since SANTA CLAUS and THE EASTER BUNNY do not exist, therefore YAHWEH and YAHSHUA do not exist, either.

Whereas God never told them to believe in a Father Christmas, nor Easter Bunny Rabbit in the first place.

The non-existence of an Invisible Pink Unicorn would be proven by their effect on their alleged habitat.

If there are no such effects- Grass-eaten, hoofprints, etc. then the absence of Invisible Pink Unicorns at that location will have been proven.

GOD CAN BE SUBJECTED TO A SIMILAR TEST.

. 2nd CHRONICLES 16:9.

9 "For The Eyes of The LORD
run to and fro throughout the whole Earth,
to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them
whose heart is perfect toward Him.
Herein thou hast done foolishly:
therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars."


A SCEPTICAL ATHEIST NEED ONLY PERFECT HIS HEART TOWARD YAHWEH GOD- AND HE WOULD SHEW HIMSELF STRONG IN HIS BEHALF.

. JOHN 14:21-27.

21. "He that hath my Commandments,
and keepeth them,
he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me
shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him."
22. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot,
"Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us,
and not unto the World?"
23. Jesus answered and said unto him,
"If a man love me, he will keep my words:
and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him,
and make our abode with him.
24. "He that loveth me not keepeth not my Sayings:
and the Word which ye hear is not mine,
but The Father's which sent me.
25. "These things have I spoken unto you,
being (yet) present with you.
26. "But The Comforter, (which is) The Holy Ghost,
Whom The Father will send in my Name,
He shall teach you all things,
and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
27. "Peace I leave with you,
my Peace I give unto you:
not as the World giveth,
give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid."


IF THEY LOVE YAHSHUA- OBEY HIS TEACHINGS- AND YAHSHUA DOES NOT MANIFEST HIMSELF TO THEM- THEN THAT PROVES THAT HE DOES NOT EXIST.

If they cannot keep the conditions, then why are they wasting our time?

Bros, I'll advice you to:

1.google the invisible pink unicorn and educate yourself on it

2. When you're done assimilating it, edit your post and write something more reasonable

3. Thank me

Can we determinethe existence/non-existence of invisible pink unicorns? Actually, the answer is "yes." Unicorns would be pink if they reflected pink electromagnetic radiation (i.e., light). However, in order to be invisible, the unicorns would reflect no electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, the term "invisible pink unicorn" is self contradictory. Therefore, we know absolutely that they couldnotexist. I don't know who invented the term "invisible pink unicorns," but they were obviously deficient in their physics education.

However, for the sake of argument, let's change the term and drop the "pink" part.......

It's you who did not comprehend. His statement made perfect sense. Something cannot be pink and invisible as pink comes from light. This is simple physics.

How can you doubt the existence of the pink invisible unicorn, just because it reflects pink electromagnetic radiation doesn't mean it can't be invisible also, the unicorn obviously has supernatural powers and hence can only be seen by people gifted with his power. The mighty unicorn is laughing at you in Paradise. Repent and follow him.

I know what it is. It's one of the things atheists use to shift the burden of proof, like Russell's teapot or the FSM. But the invisible pink unicorn cannot be real because pink and invisible cannot be used to describe something or someone hence it does not not exist.

you still don't get it, do you?

1. Yahweh created the world according to adherents of a certain group of religion

2. atheists ask for proof of his existence

3. adherents say things like "he is invisible and only shows himself to those who faithfully and diligently seek him"

5. then those adherents say that while they don't have concrete proof, atheists can't disprove him either

6. atheists then say that the invisible pink unicorn also exists, it created the world and everything

7. those theists then ask for proof

8. atheists then say, its invisible too but it shows himself to those who faithfully and g
diligently seek him, those that have really seemed him have found it to be pink

oh! I missed a piece there,

2 they believe by "faith" that its pink

So I was wrong when I said some people have seen it to be pink

They only believe its pink by "faith"

God is not all- knowing. It is you who has defined God and given Him contradictory characteristics. If He was all-knowing, he would have known that Adam and Eve would have disobeyed Him. Show me a Bible verse where God claimed to be all-knowing.

You are making things up as usual. Ever-loving, ever-merciful, are not found in the Bible. How do you know that Yahweh is all these if they aren't in the Bible.
