butterflyl1on: I can bet my life on two things. The first is that you do not understand the meaning of the quote and secondly, Alvin Platinga, despite his intelligence, did not even really think out his conclusion in the quote. Alvin Platinga seems not to understand some pitfalls to his arguments 1. Beliefs are not an inherited trait. One cannot necessarily tie the process of evolution to beliefs. It is more sensible to compare evolution/naturalism with instincts (and not beliefs). 2. Those with true beliefs (with regards to their immediate environment ) have a better chance of surviving than those with false beliefs. The caveat here is that not all beliefs affect survival. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

superhumanist: This does not contravene the rationale behind Platinga's quote . You are just talking about something different but not entirely . You are the one who does not understand the quote or its rationale . And you created a strawman which is fallacious . 2 Likes |

KingEbukasBlog: What kind of trolling question is this? Numerous examples have been given in many philosophy forums on this argument. For example, if you have the belief that tigers are cuddly, you will surelymeet your doom if you act on that belief. Please do some research 1 Like |

superhumanist: Like I expected , the "rebuttal" was obviously copied from some atheist website that's why you weren't able to defend it and had to tell me to do my own research . |

superhumanist: My problem is not actually with the source of your rebuttal but with your inability to defend the so-called pitfalls you discovered . It shows you just regurgitated whatever you saw there and this bespeaks of your vacuity . |

KingEbukasBlog: I now know that you are mentally imbalanced. If you want a civil debate, then address the flaws that I pointed out in Platinga's argument. After all, the flaws can be found on any philosophy site or forum dealing with the argument. the ball is in your court. Keep in mind that you are the one looking foolish here because you havent done research on the matte. |

superhumanist: What is wrong with this fellow ? Mister , you have to prove these are indeed flaws before I'll go ahead to refute them . Its becoming obvious you lack an understanding of the quote made by Plantinga . Superhumanist , the copy and paste atheist who purports himself as a deist but has the beliefs of a pantheist . You claim the universe is God but does not understand that if the universe has an intrinsic conscious creative and divine force then the goal of natural selection wouldn't just be survival because the divine would logically be interested in the realization of truths one of which would be that within it is a conscious creative force orchestrating the formation or development of natural/material objects .

KingEbukasBlog: I have been very busy lately so have no post or comment to waste on anyone who fails to understand what platinga said and would simply just type without proof of his brilliant analysis being flaws.

KingEbukasBlog: Well if you believe , for example, that skydaddy is the only thing responsible for blessing believers with good harvest, then you would likely remain ignorant of good farming practices, and those that believe in biology and scientific methods for agriculture would most likely have more robust agricultural outputs, and mostly likely to survive than you and your clan of false believers. Nigeria is a very good example. 1 Like |

plaetton: There are cultures in Nigeria and abroad who believed supernatural beings were responsible for the propitious times of sowing and harvest and still had good farming practices and robust agricultural outputs . Are you denying this ? Since they have good farming practices and robust agricultural outputs , does this validate their belief that supernatural beings were responsible for propitious times of sowing and harvest ? 1 Like 1 Share |

KingEbukasBlog: False. And we can easily test that. You can make sacrifices to your god, and let me use scientific agricultural methods, and let us see who produces surplus and better crops. There is a good reason why despite using a greater percentage of our lands for agriculture, we still do not produce enough to make food abundant and cheap, compared to smaller countries that we import food products from. 2 Likes |
