Yes, a belief in the betterment of people would require the extrapolation of what that means, but to follow that with a god is to neccessisarily presume the god before the betterment of people, resulting in that axiom being ungrounded and being a follow if the axiom of the god. Like I said, if it were more modern and was capable of change, I wouldn't mind as much, but that's not we typically talk about when we say religion
What the hell does any of what you just said mean lol, this is an epitome of a word salad
You just basically said "if its contrary to my axiom, its not solid"
No, I used an example of an axiom being ungrounded by the religion
Your example was terrible, just describe what you mean yourself instead of bringing up non sensical examples
Is this hard to understand?
You tell me, if you understood it you could just explain it instead of bringing up non sensical examples
A theologian presumes a god before the axiom
Then its not an axiom if there is a "before", before the axiom
An axiom is the most foundational fundamental core to your belief
Which is unjustifiable
Exactly
if there's something prior to it, its not an axiom
which is my point
What??
It's not a well-grounded axiom
I just rebutted your sentence
My point is that its not an axioms
If there's something prior to it
You interrupted me
Because an axiom by definition is the foundation, if something is prior to it, its not the foundation, but that thing which is prior to that thing you say is an axiom, is the real axiom
That's what I was already saying
I'm correcting your assertion
"A theologian presumes a god before the axiom"
Yes, so you'd need to necessarily believe a god is real before you could say that what they believe is right, but that's a metaphysical discussion that.
You're literally repeating what I've said.
You're not understanding how what you said was flawed
hold on
"A theologian presumes a god before the axiom"
X is god, and Y is the thing you call an axiom
If x predates y, then y would not be an axiom to begin with, X would be the axiom, as an axiom is the foundation, Y is not the foundation as there's something more fundamental to it which predates it, which is X
So what you said was a contradiction
Yeah, on the specific example I gave. No, I have my context
What?
Are you deliberately being non sensical or what
Do you wish to remove the statement from the context of the "betterment of people" I was discussing when I brought that up?
Wihch statement?
I think you and I aren't on the same page. It sounds like you got lost
Yeah because you keep on saying non sensical things lol
I demonstrated how what you said was a contradiction, and now you're talking about some statement in context of your previous example, which has nothing to do with what i demonstrated
""A theologian presumes a god before the axiom"" I simply demonstrated this statement to be wrong as its a contradiction
So first we started with a specific example
yes, and then I told you to describe the thing you're talking about yourself, since if you understood it properly, you'd be able to describe it without relying on non sensical examples. Which you did. And then i rebutted your explanation and exposed it as a contradiction
What's not clear, i dont understand
