Role Reversal

read the posts on this thread you will see the atheists are scared to death to consider any alternative to their view point. they sound exactly like funides being set upon by an artiest. I sound like the atheist trying to tear down their safe little ideology that dominates their minds and gives them illusion that they know everything that matters.

they are so resentful of having thier view pionts challenged that they can' make a single straightforward observation about it. they go immediately to reducible mode.


what set them off is this book add I quoted:

Today the majority of philosophers in the English-speaking world adhere to the "naturalist" credos that philosophy is continuous with science, and that the natural sciences provide a complete account of all that exists--whether human or nonhuman. The new faith says science, not man, is the measure of all things. However, there is a growing skepticism about the adequacy of this complacent orthodoxy. This volume presents a group of leading thinkers who criticize scientific naturalism not in the name of some form of supernaturalism, but in order to defend a more inclusive or liberal naturalism.

you an find the book through the add's link above. Also here.

Look at how belligerent and ranting they become immediately. As of this point there are no rational arguments back it's all like this:

Oh no, naturalism is doomed, doomed! Only the majority of English speaking philosophers are proponents, and a small number of philosophers want to replace it with a slightly different version of naturalism!

Where does this stuff come from?

Meta, when I'm off my meds, I'm a basketcase. I understand. Honestly. More than you know. You should consider the possibility that you need some kind of medication.

that same guy adds: "My dislike for you has turned to pity."


O yea they are not a cult are they? They can't tolerate the slightest challenge to their world view.


the thread goes from bad to worse. I quoted the book ad that says naturalism is the majority in philosophy. Then I quoted the quote by Quentin Smith saying theism is running all over secular philosophy. First they point out these are contradictions. Well it's a book ad. It's made to sell books. Smith is not selling books, he's writing an arithmetic in a journal. I didn't quote the book ad to document a point. I was just calling attestation to the books.

Now they go on a big ridicule spree. they call me a liar they accuse me of making things up and fabricating the religious experience studies.

they are such little brain washed ninnies they can't argue fairly. The cowardly custard who can't reason. They make brave bold statements about how Superior their reasoning abilities are to those of Christians then when one confronts them with a philosophical challenge they reset to lying, reducible, slander, they just go to pieces.

that's the nature of atheism.
