Religion / Re: The Atheists Costly Error: Assumption That Everything REAL Must Be TANGIBLE by budaatum: 12:29am On Apr 23 |
TenQ: It is dishonest of you, TenQ, to drag this from where everyone said what they said so everyone can read the tangible evidence themselves instead of your intangible point of view. You didn't even provide a link! So this is going to be my last response to you! Good day. |

TenQ:I did answer your questions, TenQ. And making out I didn't is not what anyone who reads the very tangible evidence that is available in this thread would conclude. You just did not like my answers because they were from numerous points of view, be honest! TenQ:Are you suggesting that I don't understand the questions you asked me and that I answered extensively? Or is it that you don't understand my answers. |

TenQ: I've felt all along that this is the rub, and I am finally glad you confess. Eve asked, will I die if I eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that Adam had told her they should not eat for on the day that she ate she would surely die, by opening her eyes to see that it was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, so she took some and ate it and gave some to her dumb believing husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Yes, TenQ. The logical consequence of using one's heart and soul and mind to ask and knock and seek is to question the gods, the sources of all Wisdom, from all points of views imaginable.

TenQ: We are telling you that the answer you ascribe to your own question is from only your one point of view, and that there are other points of view, and that you can't just close your eyes and claim only your point of view is the only point of view, and that telling us to only consider a thing from your point of view is like asking us to look with your own eyes which might not even work as good as ones own eyes. Or do you live on a planet where the blind see for those with eyes?

TenQ:Yes! See the nothing In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. TenQ:Yes. See the beginning of the ordering of the randomness below. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. TenQ:Like buda. Yes! |

TenQ: But who are you? Our teacher? Our examiner? Are we to receive marks from you if we give you the specific answer that fall in your line? And what if we have a better answer, a more nuanced and considered answer, must we abandon it and dumb down? TenQ: Go back through the thread TenQ, and you will see many instances where we posed our own question how we formatted it but you refused to see it not to talk of answer any one of them, so it cannot obviously be as simple as you say it is now, can it? |

TenQ:With this, you frustrate me. We agreed, software for pc will not work in Android and Mac! We agreed, Sign language is gibberish to computer! And now you start your response with, "you should understand" as if I don't! Please, TenQ, try to see the point of view of others instead of your own alone. TenQ:Ergo, software lacks mass. TenQ:That is what the software is to you, and from your point of view. A person who sat down and coded every single line of the software might choose to look from a different point of view. TenQ: What you do not seem to understand is that you do not have the authority to demand what point of view I choose to respect, and that just really amuses me. Why would I be an atheist, precisely defined as a person who refuses to only accept the point of view of the gods, now choose to worship the point of view of TenQ, to put it bluntly it I may? Tell me. Is the person coding the software not writing the software, and is their final written code not the software too or must they too only see the machine's point of view? |

triplechoice: And will it be tangible and have tangibility if I love my neighbour, and not insult those who insult me, and don't kill and don't covet control over my neighbours mind nor rob them of their point of view, my God, in Spirit and essence and everything anyone can choose to describe it, is tangible, or at least must be tangible to me because I am making my God real and tangible to my very self? P.s. I intentionally made it gibberish, do note. Imagine being told my infinitely massed God is not tangible because it does not have dimensions despite having the energy to create the entire universe, and it does change state with time, or at least understanding of it must. Can you see me joke of talking to an ant?

helinues: What you actually have is a jungle! A proactive government would properly investigate and gather evidence and seek a court order to shut them down. But since Nigeria does not follow its laws, we just swoop in! What if this company contests the allegations and is found to not be guilty in court? Would Nigeria not have to compensate them for loss of earnings? jmoore:This, alone, is enough to make one suspect they don't ban Nigerians. 16 Likes 1 Share |

triplechoice: Triple, I am an atheist, yet I can agree with the bold depending on context. Say, I were to believe and claim to worship God, but can not be bothered to love my neighbour because my neighbour does not believe what I believe or has a different point of view to mine, it could be said that my belief in God lacks spirit and is therefore intangible. Just throwing it out there that one can worship God in tangible spirit, as by thy fruits suggest.

TenQ:One thing I never do is post credentials as a reason for knowledge. If I would, the relevant ones to this topic would be B.Eng Electronics and Communications, London. In my days we were 'programming' in COBOL and C and sometimes directly in machine code, so God help you if your one was in the zero's place. I would love my knowledge of philosophy and how to think and reason to hold sway here too. When you program in C/Cpp, Python, you are "touching" it. If you want to debug your program, you will remove it from the machine and "touch" it to do so. So why would you insist we go looking for the software inside the machine despite some of us telling you what we would do? Would you tell us to go look for electricity inside the machine from the machine's point of view also and without using a multimeter? TenQ:And we are saying that you don't impose a point of view on anyone! It's why we keep informing you that we can take the software out of the machine's point of view and place it in our own point of view so we can feel and touch and see it since we don't share senses with a machine and therefore feel and touch things differently. The imposition of a point of view is how religion captivates it's audience. And you ought to by now know that atheists do not allow themselves to be captivated so. Read some of my posts on the Garden of Eden. It's all about a point of view that differs to the generally accepted point of view, which you and I should perhaps discuss in its own right.

TenQ: TenQ, I agree with you that A more precise definition would be that Tangible things are anything that has mass or dimension or energy or can change state with time. In fact, Quine, whom I will post at the end, is agreeing with you, and if I tell you a secret, my Lord and I have almost never disagreed and he agrees with you too. LordReed: And just so it's not I'm lying, first person to find otherwise my Lord will make me pay 10k. Just quote link. Unfortunately. There are no precise definition of words, or at least we human beings are not normally intelligent enough or know enough that the definition we give a word is more precise than any other. It's probably why there are so many dictionaries. Everyone writes their own because we do not agree on precision. Personally? I think it is really rather absurd (gibberish, even), to claim one precisely defines any word with very complex and imprecise words like "mass or dimension or energy or can change state with time". These are words that have had so many meanings over the history of time, and that keep evolving, that precision just eludes them completely, just as that of tangible has and does. Anyway, below is Quine. The entire article itself is revealing, and moreso the references. In Quine’s influential Word and Object he speaks about “limning the true and ultimate structure of reality,” (1960, 221) and according to him, for an object to exist is for it to be necessarily quantified over in an idealized and regimented logical language used to truly and comprehensively describe the world. And he claims that the values of the variables of such a theory will only range over sets and physical objects, so “as far as he is concerned … only physical objects and sets really exist,” and, it must be noted, both objects and sets, even if the latter are abstract, are all regarded as ‘things’ or ‘objects’[3] |

Guess they wouldn't be spitting on the "idol worshipping Christians" if they ban them. But do note only the very far right think stupidly this way. “The custom of spitting near churches or monasteries is an ancient Jewish tradition,” far-right activist Elisha Yered wrote on Monday in response to a video of Orthodox Jews spitting on Christian pilgrims. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRguceI4h1Q?si=sKSv7946uo7m4yIY

TenQ: In the context of this thread, which is spirits, those things mentioned are very tangible indeed is what you miss. Even My Lord who argued with me that tangible things must be touchable, and whom I assume might claim life is not touchable, might concede that life is tangible compared. Go on. Ask all those atheists if spirits are tangible or not. Though now that we've got to the insulting stage, that bridge might have burned. Even as a figure of speech, I'd expect none to agree. |
