Hold on, one argument at a time. You just brought up the first-cause argument, which has been dealt with already. If you want to go back into that, let us do so. Assuming that God does exist, with those attributes. No, that is blatant circular reasoning, among other things. If you want to go...

Excellent, I am glad to hear it

(I am not sure if the above post was sarcastic or not but the US has one of the highest crime rates in the world, I believe.)

I understand what he was saying, but I think that such beliefs come from a difference in social and cultural makeup. In Australian society - as with the western world - that is not the way we seek to interact with each other. Simply because people have different religious beliefs or religious...

I do not need to. Material evidence comes in many forms, as well as logical inferences based on such evidence. You do not have to be able to see something directly using just your bare eyes to prove that it is there. So again, the analogy is not relevant. (PS. I have not actually read books...

That point was quashed previously, by me if I recall. You can measure hunger. Hunger is not some sort of invisible mysterious force, it is constituted by the state of chemicals in your brain and the state of your distestive system. Specifically, it is determined by the presence of a hormone...

What is harmful about it? Desiring a women, even intently, does not mean the person is going to rape her. I do not know where you get that idea from, but in my mind that is quite absurd. Can I just note that your idea about nobility, purity, etc is just the result of a construct. There is...

But suppose that you are not married or with someone, then what is wrong with that? What might happen? Please explain what "free indulgence in women" means, and what "detrimental to her purity and righteousness means". I am attempting to understand the reason behind it but those are very vague...

Can I just ask, what is wrong with desiring women? If I see a gorgeous girl walk past in hot pants I am obviously going to find her rather alluring, but what is wrong with that?

I agree with all the opinions above Business would provide you with a nice context for working in the corporate law world, and it is the more practical choice, but if you want to practice law then you shouldn't be at a disadvantage for selecting one combination over another. While not of...

I would still place Nat over Ellis. ...and then watch the fun :p

Nat is a cutie

Brilliant ..

No credit for one and no quote for the other :( Sorry gentlemen, I was really tired when I was doing it - I must have mixed you two up :o

http://www.takefive.com.br/images/frustration_00.jpg I tire of this and I've said what I have to say, so no more religious discussion for me.

This should see a lot of people up in arms.

Well, you can't prove it - that's the point. Just as I cannot prove that I am alien. Hence you won't go around believing that I am one.

Of course I would, if it could be proven to me. Well no, because the existence of a deity does not in anyway illustrate the truth of what is written in the Bible, other than a deity exists. Hence why I find it funny that people assert so confidently that some deity exists, and then further claim...

Yes, it is - in terms of this argument. Just as the onus of my proving that I was abducted by aliens last night is on me. We do not assume that it is true until you prove it false. See shifting the burden of proof in the argument guide.

lol I have three actually: - 'War with the mutant spider ants' - 'Last run' - 'You are an alien' Not exactly the pinnacle of my literary explorations, but all gifts to me, I assure you :)
