How to recognize evidence for God

The much used canard of NDE’s was taken apart quite impressively by the Hitch in there:

“NDE’s are not accounts of what happen to you after you die, they are (anecdotal) accounts of what you may experience whilst alive, thanks to life saving scientific innovations.”

One of the most interesting parts for me in the exchanges between you and @sherlock was the way he attempted to dismiss your criticisms, firstly as a midge like interruption to his lofty thoughts, then as your presence grew to wasplike intensity he started to try to ignore you but the stings and outrage were taking their toll and his final week you had (for him) attained the status of a Japanese Death Hornet, I just had to laugh as his deceptive conduct and outright lies were exposed time and time again, along with his use of informal fallacies.

Captain Cat was especially appreciative of your patience (he says I don’t have any) and your ability to pounce on your prey as it shows its underbelly very good for a human. He says your claws need sharpening a bit so as to remove slabs of fur rather than just tickle the bastards.

Uh, hey, as a quick reminder, with some of those pics you have, make sure you mark them “NSFW” if you ever plan on posting them. Wouldn’t want you to get in trouble on my account. You’re welcome.

And what about the movie? 93minutes of edited footage set to music?

Oh, wow! You added music? :smiley: Thank the gods! All that constant grunting and heavy breathing got really annoying after the first twenty minutes.

It was more to mask the squeaking, clanking, grunting and barking. Oh and the pressure release valve right at the end. At least the pig was sedated. I had to cut the Bactrians’ scene, too much wobbling.

What! (sputter^%^ sputter #$#@ coughb%$$ cough$#@$ Burn those files! I have never had an original thought in my entire life! It’s all plagiarized bulshit that I stole from someone someplace! I don’t even remember where all the shit comes from anymore. Just a monkey on a keyboard. Yeah, I know, I sound pedantic as the next piece of dogmatic shit out there, but that comes from lecturing and teaching. I also got some great techniques for dealing with audiences when I catch them about ready to challenge me. (What a great question! Now, How do you think I am going to reply to that?) Ha ha ha ha ha. Who else would like to try and reply to that? Ha ha ha ha ha. So, where are you going with this question? What are you looking for? I did a lot of public speaking. Oh… and I curse while I am speaking… I curse in front of professionals and tell them to take the sticks out of their asses. (Actually, the goal is to not be offended and to meet clients where they are at. But also to be who you are. If you are phony, your client will know. People, even the most ignorant among us, can spot a phony. Burn those files. LOL

I tried, but just as Captain was readying the paraffin blocks and looking for matches…does anyone have those anymore? The FBI, Homeland Security and the Korean Christian Moralistic Society burst in, CC, with admirable agility, grabbed the files and leapt onto the exposed roof beams (very aesthetic here) onto the windowsill and disappeared into the night. He was followed at full speed by the afore mentioned functionaries and a rather weird character in hand me down underwear, blue shoes, and a red MAGA cap…so who knows what is going on Cog.
Oh…just an update: A person claiming to be a Moorish Attorney General from Speke Oklahoma and an American National from Somewhere, NC want to see you, something about missing license plates and overdue payment. Beats me what the hell they were on about.

And people ask me why I live in a banana tree in the jungle? Sheesh!

Botanically speaking, banana plants are technically gigantic herbaceous plants, not trees. They are not woody and their apparent “stem” is made up of the bases of the huge leafs.

Update: Captain Cat has returned, a slight singe to his tail and a chip out of one ear. I did not enquire about the strips of flesh hanging from his front and rear claws but he looks well fed and happy.

Oh, he just said " That Cog is a buffoon" I sad, “no he’s a chimp”…CC just hissed and walked off. I dunno, did I say something?

Update Update: The small man in the MAGA hat just returned. He seems to be missing a couple of fingers. Anyhoo, he asked when you were returning to live in the US, Cog, and left me a recruiting poster for the “Acquaintances of Liberty” featuring a free anti tank “hunting” weapon with 5 rounds when you sign up and a subscription to the monthly “Slaughtering Native Wildlife for Fun an Profit” magazine. He said you had filled in a coupon…

Oh I almost forgot: a sealed copy of “Shaved Bison and Plucked Duck for the Delectation of Gentlemen” just arrived with your name on it but Tin Man grabbed it and went off to his workbench area. The postie had to use tongs to deliver as UPS had refused to carry such “disgusting material”. Got very upset when I asked how she knew it was disgusting when it was in a double sealed packet with gum along the edge. She said she was a Southern Baptist and “they knew this things”. Ok seems legit.

Designed and created by a deity, of course… :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Damn, I knew that was going to happen. He wanted a subscription, and they refused to register a Tin Man. I suppose I will just have to change my address. If you get any of the other magazines, hide them right away, “101 Ways to Wok Your Dog,” “101 Ways to Wok Your Neighbor’s Dog” “101 Ways to Wok Your Neighbor.” “Don’t Wok Away.”

And they fit in your hand.

Take it to the Lounge….:slightly_smiling_face:

  1. The assertion is not a principle, or set of principles.
  2. It was not laid down by any authority, nor was any authority cited.
  3. No one asserted it was incontrovertibly true.

One of Sherlock’s more asinine claims there:

Atheism
noun

  1. disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.

Fairytale
noun

  1. a children’s story about magical and imaginary beings and lands; a fairy story.

@CyberLN’s assertion is simply an obvious semantical inference from an examination of the word definitions, though this would explain why it was beyond the wit of SH, as dictionaries seem to be anathema to him.

Well an actual phenomenon (a god phenomenon) would be nice for a start… once we have that we can start analysing it.
