plaetton: This says it all. I already told you that neither ridiculous notion negates the existence of God. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 5:02pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Of course, they only show how absurd the arguments for him are. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 5:14pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: The FSM theology does not negate the existence of god. Rather, it proposes that the FSM is indeed the much talked-about god. We seem to be going back and forth. Are we on the same page or are we having arguments on seperate threads? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MrAnony1(m): 5:21pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight:lol, they won't. they'd much rather ridicule @plaetton, all he is asking is that you describe what attributes first cause would have. Simples. A conceptual analysis if you may. |

Mr_Anony: lol, they won't. they'd much rather ridicule why not start by giving us reasons why you think there is a first cause? you just assume there is one and you would want us to agree to your assumptions. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 5:34pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
cyrexx: Because the universe demonstrably had a beginning. you just assume there is one and you would want us to agree to your assumptions. FSM also presupposes first cause. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MrAnony1(m): 5:40pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
cyrexx:see deep sight's answer |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 5:42pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Anony, please dont try your tactics here oooo! I dont want to see your debunked and ridiculed like in the other thread. Please oooo Deep Sight has suffered enough, do you want to carry his cross? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 5:42pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: And of course, by your logic, god demostrably had no beginning ., Right? I just dont know how you can so fiercely argue that the universe must have a first cause, but magically, god cannot. Because the universe occupies a spot in space and time, and ,god magically does not. right? 1 Like |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 5:44pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Mr_Anony: lol, they won't. they'd much rather ridicule By what means? Through my imagination, or by revelation? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 5:44pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton: Conscisely, because the universe is matter,and matter cannot cause itself and as such, the cause of matter cannot be matter: and is therefore immaterial. That which is immaterial is naturally permanent and uncaused. Simples. Now answer my questions! 1 Like |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 5:48pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton: By reason. It is logical to say that a first cause is eternal or immaterial: Is it logical to say that a first cause is Indomie Noodles? Come on. Be serious. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 5:50pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
@Deepsight: Pls answer honestly. No matter how elegant,complete and reassuring it sounds, Is god, the uncaused cause, the eternal, immutable overlord of space and time, not a mental construct? Can you demonstrate how god is demostrably eternal, immutable, uncaused, or that god even exists at all? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 5:50pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: "The cause of matter can not be matter" #things that Deep Sight pulls from his Azz |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 5:53pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: So your responses to premises are not counter premises but only mockery? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 5:54pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton: @Deepsight: 1. Something exists. 2. Something cannot come from nothing. 3. Thus something pre exists. 4. The pre existent cannot be nothing. 5. It is thus a permanent something. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 5:54pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Seriously speaking, first cause, eternal, immaterial; all these are mere mental gymnastics. I should have the same liberty as you have to add noodles to the entire mental exercise. Why not? Why should you display such prejudice against my own version of the mental gymnastics? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 5:57pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Dont hold ridiculous beliefs if you dont want to be ridiculed. The term "matter" is used throughout physics in a bewildering variety of contexts: for example, one refers to "condensed matter physics",[87] "elementary matter",[88] "partonic" matter, "dark" matter, "anti"-matter, "strange" matter, and "nuclear" matter. In discussions of matter and antimatter, normal matter has been referred to by Alfvén as koinomatter.[89] It is fair to say that in physics, there is no broad consensus as to a general definition of matter, and the term "matter" usually is used in conjunction with a specifying modifier. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 6:00pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Beautiful logic. By the same token, So if god exists, god cannot come from nothing, so there must be something pre-existent and more permanent than god.right? Hhhmmm, what should we call it? Let me see. I know. please please, lets call it the Flying Spaghetti Monster(FSM). What do you think? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by plaetton: 6:03pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
^^^^ Pls dont get ticked off by the name. Its just a name. After all, the universe is said to be spiral in shape, much like spaghetti. 1 Like |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 6:08pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton: O no: remember that matter is mutable and hence not self xistent. Thats the key. Simples. The intagible is not caused. Eternity is intangible. Is it caused? There's your answer. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 6:10pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Eternity is an infinite. Infinites do no exist n the real world. #back to life, back to reality 1 Like |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 6:17pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: Nonsense. If eternity does not exist,then what else exists? In what does the universe exist? What timeline. Get serious. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 6:19pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: In fact,just to re inforce how wrong this statement is: infinites DO EXIST in our reality. Every particle can be sub divided to sub particles to infinity. Same with numbers. Same with everything. So infinity is in fact the only reality. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 6:20pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Universe had a beginning? Is that not your argument? Isnt that the point of the big bang? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MrAnony1(m): 6:20pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton:By thinking. I presume you are capable of thought are you not? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 6:21pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: Ode, numbers dont exist in the real world, they are ideological constructs matter is the smallest material. No infinite in particles. #Deep sight debunked NEXT! |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MrAnony1(m): 6:25pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: Anony, please dont try your tactics here oooo!lol, there is a difference between logical arguments and mockery. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 6:26pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: And the big bang was massive motion. Now tell me: are you unscientific enough to believe that such massive motion occurs without a trigger? Do you think that such a trigger could be noodles? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by DeepSight(m): 6:29pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
MacDaddy01: Numbers do exist, otherwise you won't even be typing. I don't expect that you are philosophically mature enough for us to venture into the discussion on numbers though. matter is the smallest material. No infinite in particles. O really? Oya, show me the smallest particle na? |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MrAnony1(m): 6:29pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
plaetton:wow! the bolded is a plain example of willful ignorance. "I do not know, I do not want to ponder it but I am very happy to ridicule it" I am sorry sir, that's just poor. |
Re: The Pink Unicorn Argument Against Religion by MacDaddy01: 6:31pm On Sep 24, 2012 |
Deep Sight: we dont know what is beofre the big bang. If there was a trigger, yes it wouldnt be noodle, neither will it be spiritual ectoplasm |
