I see you're angry with your God.

First of all you cannot be angry at something that doesn't exist.

Secondly, I cannot be angrier than something that proposes to burn billions of people in hell while it chills in paradise

Well, he's still your creator and you're his creature. You can't change that.

Really? Tell me something

If you feel the inventors of gun powder are to blame for world War 1&2, it's your choice.

No. YOur god is to blame because it sat back and watched millions of people die despite it's foreknowledge and did nothing to save them. What a Arrow!

And if you feel the German chemist who discovered uranium is to blame for the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings too, it's your choice. Man has always been known to instinctively shift blame to others.

And your god has always been known to do nothing about it undecided

don't get emotional bro, I'm only scrutinising your claim of knowing exactly what those viewing are "thinking"

but if you don't want me to mention you again, just reiterate it and it would be done, no biggie
You're the one that's been emotional by gloating and mocking something you claim doesn't exist. It's just like me saying Ogres don't exist and still spending my whole life online on ogre websites, mocking.

As I said earlier, if your intention is mere sarcasm, there's no need of mentioning me. Just get at it.

You seem confused. You just claimed it's impossible to get angry at something non-existent. Now you're saying you're not as angry as the non-existent God.

A non-existent God should have helped the world War. You need to take a stand. Are you confused about the non-existent God or confused as to why the existent God didn't intervene in world War 1&2. Cos I'm not sure how to answer you, since your original claim is that He doesn't exist.

Na wa o! Why are you so blind to the obvious.

I said price per value is not general but relative but you said price per value is general.

Price does not determine value! This is what your stance implied : it implies that once a high price is placed on an item anywhere in the world then that item must be valuable to everyone in the world. THIS IS WRONG.

I had to take time to give you a lengthy breakdown so you would see the glaring difference but as expected you still did not see it.

It's alright anyway, not everyone is meant to quickly grasp simple issues grin

Anything else?
Stop putting words in my mouth.
No where did I say or imply that "anywhere in the world" nonsense that you have come up with.
It is your usual manner of inventing an argument so you can defeat it.
Value is subjective. So is price.
Neymar is worth 225 million to PSG. We know he's worth far less to Arsenal.
The buyer will only pay for a product what he thinks it is worth (value affecting price).

You have realized your folly so the next thing is to start saying things I have not said.
Well done.

Look. Read carefully

I KNOW your god does not exist but since we are discussing and you actually believe that it does I have to discuss like it exists. Understand?

So, now is your god responsible for the evil that happens on earth or not?

Hahahahahahahaha you are now jumping to my camp in confusion.

These are your comments earlier

VALUE AND PRICE ARE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.
This is circular reasoning in line with the theory of subjective value. I already explained that.

You also said :

Neymar is very valuable, so he commands a very high price[/b
].

That is a general statement and implies the value of Neymar is same worldwide but now you switch to my camp after I showed you your error by saying the below

Neymar is worth 225 million [b]to PSG. We know he's worth far less to Arsenal.

Now you agree that value is relative and value sometimes does not need to be paid for. VALUE CAN BE GOTTEN FOR FREE!

you did not even know when you changed your song and joined me in my chorus grin grin

See guy I have educated you enough and I believe you have also unconsciously taken to this education based on your shift all of a sudden.

VALUE IS NOT LINKED TO PRICE AND VALUE CAN BE GOTTEN FOR FREE!

VALUE DOES NOT ALWAYS NEED TO BE PAID FOR!

PRICE IS SELF SATISFACTORY AND NOT GENERAL.

VALUE MAY HAVE A PRICE TAG, MAY BE UNABLE TO BE QUANTIFIED AND MAY ALSO BE GOTTEN FOR FREE. all this is relative to who it is valuable to.

Bye for now! cheesy

This proves he's God. Let me give you that verse in a simpler English.

(EasyEnglish) I made the light and I *created the dark. I cause people to do well and I *create trouble. I am the *LORD. I do all those things.’
Does that mean He's behind every trouble? No. There's a difference between "I create trouble" and "I'm behind every trouble".

In the context of this discussion, "free" is also a price tag.
Transactions of value can take place without money exchanging hands.
An example is free transfers in football.

Sorry bro but free is NEVER a price tag. Price is linked to A SALE. free is not a sale but a give away!

If transactions of value can take place that means something was given in exchange for another and in the case of free transfers it only occurs when a player's contract is over and the club does not wish to renew. In other words the club saw no further VALUE in the player so chose to GIVE HIM AWAY due to the fact they no longer have a contract with him.

The New team who SEES VALUE in the released player now sign a new contract with him so to the player and receiving club it isn't free Afterall but to the releasing club it is free.

You are the one to give it up because I have shown you analytically how erroneous you have been throughout this argument and also shown you when and how you suddenly began singing my own song. grin
