Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

Concepts do not exist independently of consciousness. Requiring consciousness to make a statement about a thing doesn't mean the thing's existence is contingent on one's having consciousness. You talk like "logic" is a "thing" that come before another "thing". You fail...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

This is a guy i ran into on youtube. He did message me later about this stuff and came off as a nice guy. It's just hard keeping your cool sometimes. I'll be in green. He'll be in red. A name is a label assigned to an object or person. We have a memory of such a label. Take that memory away from eve...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

I think i have it... Logic, or the statement we make about something CANNOT be a non-concept like Dillahunty put it. Think about it... Once he has to put that worldview into practice (non ceptual logic) he says he can't identify what IT is (what we put in a category, like squareness) but he can iden...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

A rock being a rock whether any people exist doesn't negate logic. I almost wonder what position he is arguing here. If logic is valid for God's existence, then it can not be tied merely to man's existence, but must transcend man. Which he seems to be saying it does. Odd??? Isn't this the same argu...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

There are the times I wish Jac was still around. The concept "A = A" is in the mind, but the essence of our concept is abstract. Whether or not we are there to concieve something does not have any effect on that something. Thus, A = A and is not, not = to A. A rock is stilla rock, regardl...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

Thanks for the clarification... y#-o . Yeah, I'd call their reasoning a certain word but I don't think its allowed here. Seeing the distinction it strikes me even more that its really a sort of delaying tactic and arguing about semantics instead of getting into a real discussion about the issue... ...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

Let me try to explain what I think is a knock down argument against atheism... before you perceive of something you see something. For a lot of people we take this for granted, you could be in a daze, listening to music and driving down the road and not perceive anything but rather see it... percept...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

This bugs me quite a lot when it comes to arguements on apologetics or debates - the debaters starting throwing semantics at each other and chucking back and fore the "burden of proof" baton - but never actually really answer the question and give us something concrete to take away. Sound...

Re: Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

I think there may be some misunderstanding on the part of the atheists on the significance of the laws of logic and other abstract ideas. Some apologists have actually made some similar points (not completely similar mind you) but for completely different reasons... I have some thoughts, but I'd ra...

Answering atheists responses to laws of logic

Okay i run into problems sometimes with atheists on youtube trying to talk about laws of logic... they claim that laws of logic are "non concepts," like the word "blark," blark has no definition, it can't be described, the human mind doesn't recognize "blarkness." They ...

Re: Presup Apologetics

Talking about presups can you guys respond back to my thread about the matt d/matt slick debate in the philosophical discussions? I had some questions that weren't answered.
