budaatum:You are a book away from being lost. |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by Nobody: 11:35pm On Oct 13, 2021 |
Pastafari: I didn't ask you to define the fallacy I said you should prove that I'm guilty of it You are guilty of lying if you say I used anything ambiguously You asked for my definition and I gave you one Your own definition doesn't matter to me You have repeated or used your definition in vain I'm stuck to mine |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 11:36pm On Oct 13, 2021 |
Pastafari: Sounds like when some say I am darned to hell if I don't believe their book. |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by Pastafari: 11:40pm On Oct 13, 2021 |
HellVictorinho:OK. Good luck then |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by Pastafari: 11:41pm On Oct 13, 2021 |
budaatum:Looks like you won't get it until you actually read the book |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 11:53pm On Oct 13, 2021 |
Pastafari: I hope you realise its a similar idea to [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell%27s_teapot?wprov=sfla1]Russell's Tea Pot[/url]. Like a modern form of it used to ridicule those who wanted to introduce intelligent design into the Kansas School Board?

budaatum:Now you are getting it. keep reading |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 12:04am On Oct 14, 2021 |
Pastafari: I got it from Russell! Many many years ago! Pasta. Maybe you should spend some time knowing buda. |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by Pastafari: 12:09am On Oct 14, 2021 |
budaatum:Buda, you need to spend more time knowing the Flying Spaghetti Monster |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 12:53am On Oct 14, 2021 |
Pastafari: Just about as much time as I need to spend reading books about fairies and Father Christmas, or angels or messiahs and Physics and gods I suppose, just that there's unfortunately only 24 hours in a day and my eyes only work for 3. Its why I'm on here so much. I'd rather spend those 3 hours reading what you write than a book you say you believe. You are far more interesting than a Flying Spaghetti Monster, is what I think. |

budaatum:No one will finish reading a good book in a day. |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 1:05am On Oct 14, 2021 |
Pastafari: buda is patient. |

budaatum:The "rib" thing is a play (pun), in the Hebrew, on Eve's (Babylonian) name. They got it from the Babylonian myth system, as well as numerous other mythological concepts, including one of the many sons of their chief god, whose name was Yahweh. There is a line in Deuteronomy which accidentally confirms this, as well as states that Jacob was the allotted apportioned part of the human race given to Yahweh, by his father, El Elyon. Scholars have not always understood where Yahweh came from. His relationship to Babylon/El Elyon was not fully understood until the Royal Library of Ashurbanipal was discovered at ancient Nineveh in the late 19th Century. budaatum:Scholars know a great deal about the texts, and many, if not most would not agree with that. It's a religious excuse for not actually doing the real work to understand ancient Near Eastern literature, and that there may be things the texts are saying which are not there. Depending on what you mean by "asking and knocking", without the academic work, is worthless. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Tamaratonye1: It means, do extensive research, instead of believing only one book. |

budaatum: .....Then why does buda feel the need to spout gibberish ...... and condescendingly start accusing total strangers of being blinded and other barely coherent rubbish ? .......Is buda suffering from Dunning Kruger..? ........Why can't buda bask in the great openness of his/her non-judging mind ..... and not inflict his/her blathering on people who did not ask for it ? And btw, your attempts at humour are even more laughable (no, not in a funny way) than your attempts at coming across as intellectual and enlightened.... Bro, It's a bit embarrassing,......... ........ and most of your latest posts is utter gibberish, intelligible (possibly) only to you........... But I think buda is used to talking to his/herself 3 Likes 1 Share |

budaatum: WTH?? O my dear buda what ailest thee? No surgery or treatment options? |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 9:59pm On Oct 14, 2021 |
While I am glad you are at least reading buda, do know that if you want to understand buda you'd ask questions. GodHead85: |
Re: The Bible Is Overrated by budaatum: 10:02pm On Oct 14, 2021 |
LordReed: Punishment for reading too much with bad light. Eyes now give up after 3-4 hours reading to free me to do other more interesting things like write. |

Re: The Bible Is Overrated by Nobody: 6:40pm On Oct 15, 2021 |
orisa37: I think it's overrated because it doesn't deserve to be as praised as it is It shouldn't be taken as seriously as it is taken |
