Stephen Fry on Meeting God

offsetSammy says...

I don't think I've read something so imbecilic in quite a while. I actually started quoting you to point out all the ridiculous contradictions in your statements but then realized that, in the words of Wolfgang Pauli, "It is not only not right, it is not even wrong".

I'll simply say this: purporting to know something, while simultaneously claiming that no one could possibly know that thing, is an excellent example of intellectual dishonesty, which you demonstrate with an impressive level of obliviousness.

People think they can know God, or what he's up to. That's quite laughable.

You can't explain how or where consciousness came from. You have no idea, just as the average person can not know God. And if you knew God, you couldn't explain it.

Even a relatively superficial exploration would help you out, but your cup is quite full.

If you could answer the question honestly 'where did our morality come from' (and it didn't come from us) then you would be on your way.

I believe Wednesday should be wing night. "Wednesday Wing Night" rolls off the tongue much more easily and is clearly what Thor intended. If you disagree with me then we can settle it with a war.

I'm just saying, as far as religion go, I'm starting up the Church of Thor. Everyone is welcome, as long as you honour your ancestors and help chip in for Tuesday's Wing Night.

PS. Tuesdays are Wing Night, BYOB. =)

"The moment you banish God...eye-eating creatures cease to exist?"

Wow. I mean, we're both listening to the same language, English, yet your understanding of the words in the video seems to be completely different from mine! Interesting.

"What we have here is a failure to understand."

Yes, I believe this to be the case.

A friend of mine thinks Lord of the Rings isn't real, but I showed him how there's all these books about it, then sent him some quotes from them. If that's not proof, I don't know what is!

Revelation 1:17-18 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

This is the reaction of John, the beloved disciple, when he saw Jesus in His glory. He fell down at His feet as if he was dead. This is the reaction of the believer upon seeing God. The reaction of the unbeliever is going to be one
of great sorrow, and abject terror:

Matthew 24:30 Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory

Revelation 6:15-16 Then the kings of the earth and the great men and the commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains;

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

When we stand before God, everything will be in the open. There will be no secrets; you'll be exposed as the person you really are and not the person you present to other people.

What is in this video is all false bravado. No one can stand in the day of judgment except those whose sins are covered by the atoning sacrifice of the Lord Jesus on the cross. He died for our sins, and was raised the third day so that we can be forgiven and have everlasting life. He took our place and took the punishment we deserve so that all who put their trust in Him as Lord and Savior will receive forgiveness for their sins, reconciliation to God, and adoption as Gods children. That is the only way anyone can stand before God in the day of the judgment.

Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Romans 10:9 Because if you confess the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.

IQ quiz for idiots

Neil deGrasse Tyson vs. Conservative Media

offsetSammy says...

Scientific consensus is not a coalescing of mere opinions, but of careful analysis and experimentation by peer review. It is not the same thing as a bunch of people getting together in a room and saying "yeah I guess that's how it is".

You think scientists feel good about coming to the conclusion that the world is warming? Of course they don't, but it's the conclusion they have drawn. And we should listen to them, because they know much more about it than you or I ever will.

He never states that global (fill in the term du jour) is scientific fact. That is what the poster hopes you'll assume.
Further, consensus is not science. Centuries ago, the consensus was that the earth was flat and the sun revolved around the earth.
If you accept that global 'whatever' is man made, and the gov't s of the earth can do something about it, you have more faith than a whole peck of popes.

Bill Nye: Creationism Is Just Wrong!

offsetSammy says...

Scientific disciplines that young earth creationism contradicts (from Wiki, which has citations):

Physics and chemistry (including absolute dating methods), geology, astronomy, cosmology, paleontology, molecular biology, genomics, linguistics, anthropology, archaeology, climatology and dendrochronology among others.

Damn, this scientific conspiracy goes deep!

Bill Nye: Creationism Is Just Wrong!

offsetSammy says...

I am actually glad that shinyblurry appears to be interested in explaining his view scientifically. If he is earnest in his research, he will soon discover beyond a reasonable doubt that the universe is much, much older than he thinks.

I get the feeling religious folk think that scientists are "out to get them", that scientists have a preconceived notion of what it is they want to find, then bias their research towards that goal. No. Science is about discovering the truth of reality no matter whether we find it comforting or not. Pasting "alternate theories" that have not passed peer review as if they are equally as valid as experimentally tested, peer reviewed theories, is, well, unscientific. Many scientists present many theories all the time that are quickly proven wrong through peer review and experimentation. That's how we arrive at truth, by discarding all the stuff that doesn't fit and keeping the stuff that does. There's nothing "preconceived" about that.
