You are displaying what is called 'cognitive dissonance'.

2019-08-14 22:11:48 UTC  

i asked you to prove that God created man

2019-08-14 22:11:54 UTC  

and you started talking about whether or not numbers are real

2019-08-14 22:11:55 UTC  

like

2019-08-14 22:12:00 UTC  

can you answer the damn question?

2019-08-14 22:12:19 UTC  

"In the field of psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort experienced by a person who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values. This discomfort is triggered by a situation in which a person's belief clashes with new evidence perceived by the person."

2019-08-14 22:12:35 UTC  

alright so we are going to continue to dodge the question

2019-08-14 22:12:46 UTC  

Well, seen as you love analytic data and modern revelations so much, I guess you the example of DNA.

2019-08-14 22:13:04 UTC  

And how this requires a Mind.

2019-08-14 22:13:04 UTC  

ok what about DNA

2019-08-14 22:13:12 UTC  

A mind independent of the world.

2019-08-14 22:13:17 UTC  

biochemistry is not my specialty but ill give it a shot

2019-08-14 22:13:21 UTC  

ok

2019-08-14 22:13:22 UTC  

prove it

2019-08-14 22:13:23 UTC  

<:groyper:515728068275601419>

2019-08-14 22:13:29 UTC  

You don't need to be versed in biochemistry.

2019-08-14 22:13:49 UTC  

You only need to have a basic understanding of information theory, as well as understanding the Mind vs Matter debate.

2019-08-14 22:14:12 UTC  

The problem with you is you've been trained all your life to only believe in sensory data. That to you is what is called science.

2019-08-14 22:14:34 UTC  

Darwinism actually rejects logic.

2019-08-14 22:14:57 UTC  

Modern scientists like Neil DeGrasse Tyson will even say things like how we don't need philosophy anymore.

2019-08-14 22:15:09 UTC  

ok so you arent goign to prove it

2019-08-14 22:15:24 UTC  

I literally just gave you some fucking information, tranny.

2019-08-14 22:15:25 UTC  

yoru sorta going off on a tangent here

2019-08-14 22:15:33 UTC  

oh boy we are resorting to insults

2019-08-14 22:15:42 UTC  

no, you didn't lmao

2019-08-14 22:15:46 UTC  

Come back to me and explain how we have information coded within DNA, and how they can be explained through a pure materialist worldview.

2019-08-14 22:15:56 UTC  

have you ever tried looking it up

2019-08-14 22:16:31 UTC  

I am a former engineering student. I achieved 100% on all my papers, including my physics modules.

2019-08-14 22:16:49 UTC  

ok?

2019-08-14 22:17:12 UTC  

The thing is this, I affirm metaphysics, and believe that science cannot be divorced from that.

2019-08-14 22:17:29 UTC  

I have a synthetic perspective of things. Perhaps a holistic attitude is a better word.

2019-08-14 22:17:42 UTC  

let me ask you something else

2019-08-14 22:17:47 UTC  

do you know what the CMB is

2019-08-14 22:18:23 UTC  

I explained to you that your countless theories which you regard as fact are irrelevant unless you affirm true knowledge and objective reality. This is because what you regard as 'facts' are in fact interpretations of data based upon presuppositions. Every human does this. They put on their rose-tinted glasses.

2019-08-14 22:18:36 UTC  

these arent theories

2019-08-14 22:18:39 UTC  

not in the way you put it

2019-08-14 22:18:46 UTC  

these are observations

2019-08-14 22:18:49 UTC  

the CMB is an observation

2019-08-14 22:19:05 UTC  

the CMB tells us that the universe was once very dense and very hot

2019-08-14 22:19:22 UTC  

Yeah. God farted.

2019-08-14 22:19:31 UTC  

This conversation is pointless.
