Fallacy

Here is some interesting information for you... Buddha's ashes can be found encased in a shrine in Nepal where Tibetan Buddhists pray. Moses' sarcophegus can be found in a heavily guarded tomb, caged inside a Jewish temple, exactly where the Bible says he was buried. Mohammed's bones can be found i...

But if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

I can't really see how he would be trolling; more likely just spamming.

I, Dionysus, am writing this letter to whoever should read it. I want to explain the difference between believers and non-believers, in simple terms that you can understand. God has not given us anything special that no one can obtain. Believers are not possessed by the Holy Spirit to do all kinds ...

Fallacy

There is no reasonable proof that Christianity is true, and even evidence against its God's existence. That is why I'm an atheist.

I agree with her 100%. Too bad a lot of people don't.

Hey! Presto! It's the afternoon! :D Just back from a meeting and heading out again tonight, but here I shall attempt to respond to what has been said since my last post at (goggles) -- past MIDNIGHT?! Well, that being said. Here is something to ponder. The word morality derives from the Latin word ...

Fallacy

I disagree entirely, naturally. :) I have no problem with people claiming anything, either, although I would probably disagree with most people about most things. (You are talking to a Kantian who is a political liberal who is an Evangelical Christian who believes in evolution and the big bang. Go ...

Fallacy

Epicfaceofwin: Kantian deontology is duty or principle based ethics. In this ethical theory, there is an absolute morality. Today, the idea of an absolute morality is quite foreign in the age of Relativism, where truth and morality become subjective and relative. But if everything is true so long a...

Fallacy

I hate writing with a pen or pencil -- always have, even before I knew what a keyboard was. In my opinion, computers are vastly superior to paper in almost every way. EDIT: Well, that isn't exactly true. I actually don't mind writing with a ballpoint pen all that much, and I like using a tablet (tha...

Fallacy

And yet, I think for myself perfectly well, as do my siblings, and yet we never got 'Santa Claused'. All my parents did? Encouraged self sufficiancy, and more importantly, freely admitted they weren't always right. That's great -- I'm not saying that telling your kids about Santa Clause is necessar...

Fallacy

I'm a Kantian Deontologist. As a result, I believe that lying is always wrong. Nevertheless, this doesn't mean I have never lied in my life. If I tried to tell you I have never lied, I would be lying. But hey, I think we can all agree that no one is perfect (regardless of what they believe.) :EDIT:...

Fallacy

I thought it would be interesting to see what the percentages of people here that believe in what political ideology. I encourage you to elaborate and explain in a post. Me, I'm a socialist. It strives to make the most people the most happy, while maximizing personal freedom. If you aren't sure what...

Fallacy

I thoroughly love talking about life, being, knowledge, etc...I like to think that thoughts like these are what bring poetry about. Am I wrong? But I keep seeing errors that irk me, so I think I'm gonna be a reference guide. Categories: Theism Atheism Agnosticism Actually, that's false. Agnosticism...

Fallacy

And morals? These look like they're relative. Evidently, individuals operate on personal systems of morality. What's right to one person may be wrong to another. It makes you wonder, though. If one person decides that it's right for them to have another's pencil, these two moral systems come at odd...

Fallacy

I've always been told the truth by my parents, they never did the 'tooth fairy' or 'Santa Claus coming in the chimney deal. I think I prefer it that way. It means I know I can trust what they say. Ah, but think about this: is it really a good thing to know that you can always trust what your parent...

Fallacy

In my opinion, morality should be based upon real-life consequences. Lying is only bad if the consequences of said lie are bad. Of course it's more nuanced than that, but I think that's the basics of it. Saken raises a good point -- we "white lie" in society all the time, and no one seems ...
