I made reference to your fallacious reasoning to draw doubt upon your specific argument, not refute it. The proof of God is intangible, so I will not attempt to prove God's existence. "The jesus story is nothing more than the creation of the Council of Nissah, in 325 AD." The story existed before the Catholic Church came into existence. Christianity was originally a "grassroots" religion. Furthermore, Catholicism derives from the Bible. It is not solely based upon it. "But if all proof points to evolution, and the world is not really thousands of years old..." Go read the TalkOrigins FAQ. Biblical creationism and evolution are not incompatible. "What about the gaping holes in the bible. There is talk of the "messiah" in the new testament, yet there is nothing prior in the old testament." Except for a lot of prophecies that foretell his coming. "In fact, if you view the OT, there is the story of I believe Joshua who had 12 brothers, who was betrayed by his brother Judah, and he went on to become the king of kings... sounds awfully familiar does it not? " Now you're just inventing things. "Both stories are just tales made up to describe the 12 constelations... and their relation to the Sun... not the son." Correlation does not make causation. Do you have substantive proof of this assertion? "Bogus, made up material that billions of people waste their lives on... instead of appreciating the true heaven. The world we have today, that we can make a better place for ourselves, and others." Human nature will always prevent utopia.

I didn't realize you have no educational background in logic, which is unusual for someone claiming logic. The particular form of ad hominem that I refer to is an attack of the person based on the presumption of predisposition. I would normally explain it, but I would rather leave you to continue your humorous projection.

No other creature comes anywhere near humans on such a measure. We are also the only creature capable of understanding your narrow-minded philosophy.

What's gibberish is your terrible analogous reasoning in your post prior, which doesn't manage to refute the already incorrect argument.

You mean the oil that without which experts predict American society would utterly collapse? The very substance that your whole modern existence relies upon. You had better go thank the evil neo-cons for allowing you to continue to live your modern life based upon cheap oil.

It could be entirely arbitrary, or it could have some relation to the average retirement age of 62. Paul Ryan's father died at 55, so that could have relevance as well.

It's up to you to make claims or arguments that actually take more than a passing remark to dispel.

I read what you wrote. "I said that the marriage of Planned Parenthood and taxpayer-funded abortions isn't even real and yet that's what the right is all up in arms about. It's propaganda to the extreme -- Making stuff up in order to press on with their agenda." Unfortunately, both sides engage in this garbage; however, in both PP and school vouchers, the fuel is the perception of guilt, not actual guilt. This perceived guilt is founded upon the idea that any assistance whatsoever assists abortion or funds religion. Although this connection is likely (money would be diverted from abortion for other matters), it has contradicting precedent as you've indicated with SPU. I highlighted school vouchers as an analogous example, but it also reveals why I agree with Daniel's action. His action has no reasonable basis, but I agree for the simple schoolyard excuse: The other side is doing it too.
