Apologetics 301 Guidelines

If you think this is the area where you tell everyone you are sorry for eating their lunch out of the fridge, it probably isn't the place for you


This forum is open discussion between atheists and all theists to defend and debate their views on religion or non-religion. Please respect that this is a Christian-owned forum and refrain from gratuitous blasphemy. VERY wide leeway is given in range of expression and allowable behavior as compared to other areas of the forum, and moderation is not overly involved unless necessary. Please keep this in mind. Atheists who wish to interact with theists in a way that does not seek to undermine theistic faith may participate in the World Religions Department. Non-debate question and answers and mild and less confrontational discussions can take place in General Theistics.

    An oversight?
    Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

I gave you a line by line logical layout of what the trinity is, why we believe it and where it is taught in the bible.

        Your response was "duh! you said it was hard to understand! that proves I wuz right!"
        Saying that the Trinity is logical doesn't make it logical, Sparko. It isn't logical, it's completely illogical, and if you can't see that then you don't even understand what logic is. And no, my response was that "it's hard to understand because it doesn't make any sense whatsoever." You have 2 choices, you can either recognize it for the illogical nonsense that it is, or you can continue believe it because that's what you've been taught.

          Those are not the only two choices, except to a very limited mind.

            It is logical. I laid out the logic for you, piece by piece. There is no contradiction. Yet your response is simply to hand wave it away and repeat yourself. You haven't gone through one bit of my post to show me where the logic fails. And I don't believe it because that was what I was taught. I already told you I did NOT believe it at first and did my own research on it and that article is the result of what I discovered.

            Your dismissal without any actual rebuttal on any point is therefore dismissed itself. You are a low intelligence moron who thinks he is a genius. It's pretty sad to watch. Maybe you should stop posting drunk or whatever the hell is going on.

                Your so called logic is that the idea of the trinity comports with certain passages in the bible itself, not that it comports with logic, you dope. We're discussing the logic of the trinity in and of itself, not whether or not it comports with certain passages in the bible. The idea of the trinity is an illogical idea whether you can find passages in the bible that you think supports the trinitarian view or not.

                  That's true, which is why I pointed out how it was illogical. Not that I should have to point out something so obvious.

                    It doesn in Jimmyworld. He just has to repeat himself enough times and it magically becomes true. For him at least.

                      So show me how it is illogical instead of just repeating that it is.

                          Actually, you just called a dog's tail a leg, and claimed you had a five legged dog.

                            Well, no. Every once in a while, you actually put some effort into your posts. You're much more interesting to interact with when you do. Please consider doing so more often.

                              But it is illogical though. The deity cannot be logically 'one' and yet consist of three persons, unless he suffers from a 'multiple personality disorder'. The same applies to the absurd Christology of the Hypostatic Union, i.e. Jesus being fully god and fully man at one and the same time.

                                jim,

                                What do you understand is the difference between being a person and being a god?
                                . . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

                                . . . that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: . . . -- 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV

                                Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: . . . -- 1 John 5:1 KJV
