Paul S. Jenkins's Discussions
ATHEISM is so YESTERDAY
I think that "denytheist" probably isn't a totally inaccurate description of my position. I'm an atheist in that I "lack belief in a god or gods" -- which means that I reject theistic claims because…

ATHEISTS, might I have a Word with you?
Todd: 1) It seems likely that Jesus was an itinerant preacher who developed a considerable local following, to the extent that he annoyed the established religion of the time, which got rid of him in…

So clarifying further here... I think I have what I would call sufficient evidence for a relationship with a real, existing God -- who has operated through the activity of a specific, redemptive experience (as defined by the work of Christ)
I would…
Certainly is. God cannot be placed in an experiment, and certainly doesn’t act automatically as you believe.
I don't claim that God acts automatically (because I don't think he exists) or even that Christians think God acts automatically. I claim t…
Paul: Hint: Tom's more intelligent than you:
Finally...we agree on something!
You too!

Oh dear. Can’t keep track of your own arguments, Paul? I’m not surprised, really, you’re fidgeting about so much in search of an adequate defence.
No: there are two different arguments at play here. Once is whether healing prayer experiments provid…
You’ve accepted that God is a person and that therefore God may choose to heal or not. Given this you have no necessity to your evidence.
Not at all, unless you think all choices are made at random. My understanding is that Christians would say tha…
Wow...I just read this long string and I'm starting to catch on (sorry, a little slow on the on-ramp).
To review:
1. If God exists, Paul believes He should be a short-order cook.
2. If God exists, Paul believes prayer is the stick and God the pin…

“No, but you apparently think it's clever or amusing to avoid saying just what your qualifications are. Despite your cunning plan to hide it, your use of the word provides evidence that you once studied mathematics.”
I don’t see that my C.V…

“Bah! I did claim it was”
Oh dear. Can’t keep track of your own arguments, Paul? I’m not surprised, really, you’re fidgeting about so much in search of an adequate defence. Perhaps you should retire for a little while and have a nice rest b…

“I claim that the failure of such experiments is evidence that (the Christian) God does not exist.”
That’s what I identified as your position. It doesn’t really matter whether you call the results evidence or not; you would still argue from…
WPaul.
“Feel free to point out where I have divided by zero, have argued that tails exists but no head, etc. etc.”
By the definition of Conditional ProbabilityRemember that? The existence of God is a binary question. Either G = 1 or ¬G without val…
WPaul.
“I didn't claim it was.”
Then you recognise that your experiment is pointless. Marvellous.
“I claim that if one thinks laboratory healing is evidence for God's existence, lack of healing is necessarily evidence against it. ”
That’s awful,…
I didn't claim it was.
Bah! I did claim it was, or rather, I claimed that most Christians think God sometimes answers healing prayers and so the failure of the experiments is evidence against that claim. Nevertheless, if you follow a sort of God wh…
Laboratory healing is not necessarily implied by God’s existence
I didn't claim it was. You seem to be having problems with conditional statements again, so I'll use bold type. I claim that if one thinks laboratory healing is evidence for God's exi…
Although it is implied by your experimental hypothesis that God will respond to some prayers and that if He doesn’t then you will conclude that He does not exist. That is what you believe.
But in fact it is not: I claim that the failure of such exp…
Hi Philip.
“Excuse me! I'm a YEC and I don't agree!”
Sorry about that. Style of argument does not necessarily imply parity of conclusion. Still, I expect that the levels of dishonesty and foolishness in the arguments of many YECs on many issues ar…
You caught me using the word “bijection”? Is it illegal to use the word “bijection”?
No, but you apparently think it's clever or amusing to avoid saying just what your qualifications are. Your use of the word provides some evidence that you once st…

Natalie Regoli, CEO said… - Are you on LinkedIn and Facebook?
I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more connections and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on LinkedIn and Facebook are usually about my fight or social networking tips.
