Unless she can prove that she is merely an automation whose actions are the result of Google's input, her pursuit of the unearned will be an exercise in futility.

It's not the role of any disbeliever to disprove your claim that a god exists. That's absurd.

Are you familiar with the burden of proof? If so, where is your "overwhelming evidence" of god's existence?

So far, much has been asserted - nothing proved.

Evolution is a proven fact.

Creationism fabricates facts to fit the book of genesis.

You seem to have missed my point. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough.

Concerning the issue of abortion - by what right and under what authority does anyone claim the power to deny the fundamental right of an individual to choose for herself? Regardless of the circumstance or whether you agree with her choice.

By the way, kudos for speaking your mind when creating this debate rather than opting for the hackneyed "cutting and pasting." That would be somewhat trite, don't you think?

I don't suppose you have any plans to force others to embrace your views at the expense of surrendering their individual right to decide for themselves, do you?

1 point

Any religion that disregards an individuals right to choose, without coercion, condemnation or force, can hardly be considered the source of morality.

1 point

For the superstitious, it depends on which religion is being rammed down their throats.

For the apologist, it depends on how he rearranges his prejudices.

For the theistically impaired, it depends on what others tell him.

By what right and under what authority does anyone claim the power to disregard the personal choice of another?

Far be it from me to dictate to any woman what she can or can't do with her own reproductive system.

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able, and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able, nor willing? Then why call him God?" -Epicurus

1 point

I will add this: To consider humanity "guilty by nature" can hardly be viewed as moral, since doing so invalidates the very concept of morality.

Many may hold that religion is the arbiter of moral rectitude, but the notion of original sin negates that claim outright.

The Big Bang is a cosmological model that is heavily supported by scientific evidence.

Creationism is a primitive myth which assumes the truth of its claims in the absence of evidence.

1 point

It's not the role of science to disprove the existence of any god. That kind of logical absurdity is typical of religionists. The onus is squarely on those who claim that a god exists.

2 points

Theistic evolution is the doctrine that monkeys evolved from theists.

3 points

I don't know what constitutes as a "true Christian" since there is no universal agreement among and between differing denominations. I'll leave that for the theists to figure out. I do, however, know a few Christians who actually believe in evolution.

5 points

As Carl Sagan put it "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."

3 points

This question appears to assume the truth of its assertion. Remember the burden of proof that is so often overlooked? It would be of benefit to know how you define your version of god.

I will say this, however, in any attempt to reconcile natural phenomena through "supernatural" means, it is the one who asserts the supernatural that is left to the peril of his own delusion.

A thought exists as a mental content. It is the early stage in the process of forming concepts. If a thought or concept of an individual can be validated and verified by reason and logic to what it represents in reality, then it is given cognitive legitimacy. If a thought or concept is unable to fulfill these requirements, then it can only remain a notion, illegitimate concept or contradiction.
