  Problems with Common Atheist Arguments

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the reason i entitled this "problems with common atheist arguments" instead of "the case against atheism" is that many atheists claim that atheism is not a belief system, makes no claims, and has no requirements to follow, so there's no way to argue against atheism itself.

  i will go along with this idea, and argue against the most frequently used arguments of atheists instead of atheism itself.disclaimer # 1: this is not an argument against atheism or all atheists.

  no, rather this is an argument against the most frequently used claims and arguments made by the atheists i speak to on twitter.

  No. She loved me. She loved me because I made her happy and I loved her because she made me happy.

  Hmmm...so why wouldn't she tell you when it was time to stop derping, then?

  Who or What is the Holy Spirit?

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  tradition within christianity has long been that any time the phrases holy spirit, holy ghost, or spirit of godare used in the bible (especially in the new testament), it always refers to the mysterious third divine person of the trinity, who is fully god, co-equal to the father and son, yet somehow distinct.. i want to present a simplified alternative view: let the context determine the meaning!.

  (one thing to keep in mind is that the meaning of the bible words used for spirit basically is unseen force or invisible presence.).

  the holy spirit as the mind and personality of god.

  Nice summary. We are studying about the Spirit at the moment because JW's don't really have it in their lives or really grasp it, and in our "innocent" questionings, they can't explain it beyond the stupid remote control illustration.
  It is clearly far more than that. Thank you for more scriptures to contemplate.

  Not one person can explain what it is, despite claims otherwise.

  Viviane, I gave you credit for saying something that was true. I said, touche! You come back with Derp. Do you know what Touche (accent on the "e") means?
  You want to sound hard nosed do you? Fine. Be hard nosed but in my book you're just trying to be what you are not. Ye protest too hard...
  My late wife did the same.

  Did she ever tell you to learn when to stop derping, er, digging? If not, she should have.

  You're trying too hard. It shows.

  I know. It's hard for me to ignore derp. Someone else might read it and not realize how derpy the derp is without me around. It's a public service, really.

  Amazing how quickly this serious, thoughtful, intelligent topic devolved into Viviane constantly repeating the word "Derp."

  Oh, sweetie, it was never any of those things. It was pure, unfiltered concentrated derp from your opening post.

  Just going by what you wrote, dear Lady.

  Oh, just because you derped the derp and I commented on your derp doesn't mean I am forcing you to derp some derpsumptions.

  An "intelligent" reply. And who are you trying to impress with that?

  Hmmm... some interesting derpsumptions in your comment.

  Viviane. you used a term I'm not familiar with, Derp. Could you explain what you meant by that?

  LOL, and this from a woman who espouses freedom of conscience and speech.

  In what way are you imagining that me suggesting that you stopping having an idea that you have a problem with is in any way related to freedom of speech or conscience?
