he belives that god created men and women and that god wants that. belief is subjective to persnoal opinion

2020-12-09 21:09:52 UTC  

and i do not believe that there is a deity out there

2020-12-09 21:10:12 UTC

You have a naive view of belief. If something is known to be true, you must necessarily believe it.

2020-12-09 21:10:20 UTC  

Imagine being so deep into a cult that you name your whole social life after it

2020-12-09 21:10:55 UTC  

it is not known to be true. your version of truth is faith

2020-12-09 21:11:17 UTC  

there are no different versions of truth.

2020-12-09 21:11:34 UTC  

Yes it is, you are suppressing the truth in unrighteousness.
Also your definition of faith is also naive. Faith properly understood means trust and loyalty.

2020-12-09 21:12:18 UTC  

Knowledge is true justified belief, but it is still a belief.

2020-12-09 21:12:35 UTC  

i see where u are coming from, the book of genesis is how u belive humans came to be. i belive in evolution. both are beliefs

2020-12-09 21:12:55 UTC  

Darwins evolution?

2020-12-09 21:12:59 UTC  

yea

2020-12-09 21:14:00 UTC  

Both versions of history recognize that clothing is not arbitrary. Evolutionists believe it was for survival and sexual selection; creationists believe that the created order has a purpose and that is to glorify God, create families stabilize societies. Clothing ain't arbitrary.

2020-12-09 21:14:26 UTC  

Either way, clothing has a purpose.

2020-12-09 21:15:05 UTC  

we live in a time now where survival is not the primary things on our life. unless you live in a third world country then it might be. but im going to assume you are american, survival is not ur primary focus

2020-12-09 21:15:22 UTC  

wdym failings of atheism

2020-12-09 21:15:34 UTC  

Survival? Like making money to survive?

2020-12-09 21:15:37 UTC  

atheism isnt a religon its just a lack of religon

2020-12-09 21:16:14 UTC  

Isn't staying alive all of our goals in life?

2020-12-09 21:16:43 UTC  

dont chrisitans put a large value on the after life

2020-12-09 21:16:47 UTC  

"Survival is not the primary things in our life."

Are you sure about that? Literally everything you do can be Darwinianly explained by survival. There is a field in psychology called evolutionary psychology. That field explains how even modern man's choices are traced by survival instinct. Just because you live in an appartment with an air conditioner does not mean you are devoid of survival instinct.

2020-12-09 21:17:12 UTC  

Yeah and?

2020-12-09 21:17:35 UTC  

@Smash Boy You explained it way better than I could have

2020-12-09 21:18:39 UTC  

Thomas Nagel would disagree.

2020-12-09 21:18:57 UTC  

i mean, i cant hang out with friends, i need to get food to survive or i cant watch this movie i dont have enough water in order to live. survival instict is natrual within us all and for good reason. ur body natrually says hey go drink water or go eat food. by survival i was last talkibg about i mean primitive survival, where your life is dedicated to getting food or finding shelter

2020-12-09 21:19:04 UTC  

thats how i interpret it

2020-12-09 21:19:45 UTC  

"Where your life is dedicated to finding food and shelter"
Literally all you said prior to that is precisely an attempt to find food and shelter.

2020-12-09 21:20:02 UTC  

And your interpretation is philosophically naive.

2020-12-09 21:20:14 UTC  

but It's like a decesion that we make invoulentarily

2020-12-09 21:20:20 UTC  

do you go hang out with your friends, or do you drink alchohol

2020-12-09 21:20:36 UTC  

False dichotomy.

2020-12-09 21:20:50 UTC  

I can do both.

2020-12-09 21:20:57 UTC  

Hang out and drink wine.

2020-12-09 21:21:17 UTC  

What? I'm a Paleocon Christian.

2020-12-09 21:21:17 UTC  

alchohol is inherently bad for survival

2020-12-09 21:21:40 UTC  

ouch

2020-12-09 21:21:44 UTC  

to both of us opp

2020-12-09 21:22:00 UTC  

"Inherently bad for survival"

All opiates are bad when consumed in excess. But it's more nuanced than that.

2020-12-09 21:23:44 UTC  

Are you talking about me?

2020-12-09 21:24:06 UTC  

I was responding to chleb.

2020-12-09 21:24:17 UTC  

I was rebutting his claims.
