With gene mutation almost anything goes, guided by this one rule: where one thing is enhanced, another thing invariably lessens.

Congratulations. Looks like all your hard work payed off in a big way. And that's an awesome job. :) well done boss. I'm a little sad myself but news like this is definitely cause for cheer! Woot! :)

Mass Dispersion Overlord. =p

I've already started the debate by correcting your misuse of two terms, one being significant in your defense of the existence of God. Please, feel free to counter. By properly defining your argument as teleological, you're left with nothing but an exercise in metaphysical theorizing as opposed to dealing with observable facts. So your argument that God exists based on empirical evidence is invalid.

As for mormons, Jeannie is absolutely correct. While the core of mormonism is a belief in Christ as the Son of God, there are- quite naturally, a number of mormons who don't actually believe that, or at least don't agree with some core doctrines. It's common across several faiths, if not many. I won't speak for the ones I'm not familiar with.

As for me, I know there is a God. How I've come to know what I know is for me to know for my own benefit and for others to find out for themselves if they want. Pontificating about it on dating forums doesn't help anyone.

The point being, ucheaa, that your implication that I'm a believer of a non-belief is also invalid, since I was exposing weaknesses in your arguments. I'm an advocate for belief in God, but a prosecutor of obviously unsound arguments.

And one more thing- your argument is a teleological one. It has nothing to do with empiricism.

But apparently you have more than enough time to write a bunch of jargon, prop up your ego and ignore reasonable counters. It's hardly going to assist your silly crusade against atheism on a dating website, just so you're aware.

Also, you misspelled *argument*.

You know what Christ liked Ucheaa? Serving others. Perhaps it would be wiser to serve God by serving others instead of trying to get under people's skin and turning them off to the idea of a faith. How many people have you persuaded with your poor choice of words? Zero.

oh, lol, my bad sir. I totally misconstrued what you said. I'll direct the research I'm compiling to our mutual friend boaz then shall i? =D

Moe, I'm not saying that didn't happen. I'm a mormon, I believe the Bible, but we can't go around saying it's 100% scientifically accurate. And if you are going to say that you need to use sources to back up your claims so that they can be contested and proven or no one can be convinced of any truth and we'll just continue a long and fruitless circular debate. We're not talking about miracles here, we're talking about the soundness of Biblical record. If you just say "well it's true" and side with an opinion without substantiating that opinion with sufficient evidence then people will assume you're choosing to believe something just because you want to, and not because you love truth and seem to have searched it out and found it.

So again, do you have sources you can bring up to legitimize your claim that the bible is 100% scientifically accurate?

Oh? Alright then. Let's be fair to each other and put this claim to a test of legitimacy. What sources are you turning to in order justify these facts yours? I haven't seen one listed. So, if you will, please present them and make your case.

And I'll make you a deal: if you show me yours I'll show you mine.

Absence of belief = No belief


Atheism = absence of belief


Therefore atheism is not a belief.




Not only is this argument according to all modern parameters valid, but it is also sound in accordance with the current epistemological definition of sound.

lmao, hahaha, you DEVIL you! =p


There isn't a single type of coffee I've had. Since racist acts are distinguished by hatred towards a particular 'race' no one will know if I am racist since I hold all races in equal contempt. xD

Just take things slowly. If you have a relaxed pace and let a relationship grow naturally you will see the person's true colors come out in patterns of behavior, and it doesn't take a great deal of effort to notice.

Have fun, enjoy each other, just be aware. It'll make for a far more enjoyable dating experience, even with people you'll ultimately not want to date! =)

So you're justifying your position by using the adage that 'one man's trap is another man's treasure'? An adage I'm not sure actually exists anywhere but on this message board-

And you think merely understanding a person and 'keeping the relationship' (whatever that means) is enough to bridge hearts hundreds of miles away? And 'not minding chatting with each other' is somehow supposed to help?

I'm sorry, but this line of reasoning is total bull. No one I've met has ever developed a complete relationship because of this sort of thinking. Like, ever.


And I agree with paintedcards, lol. =)

Never had coffee in my life.



YOUR CONCLUSION IS FALSE!

Centipedes and katydids,
But mostly chewed up little kids.

I usually do a lethal take down and consult Siri on the ideal hiding spots for the body. Prevention is always the preferred route to this sort of thing. xD

He uses a dildo for a toothbrush!!! D=

SORRY PEEPS!

I just started believing in classical liberalism. I believe all people are equal in value. That means YOU. All of you. =)





So yeah, f u c k this rating system

You and me both sister, we could start up an entire orphanage with my growing pile of misfits. xD
