I do not need to prop up the blindingly obvious truth that our conscious self awareness is not an accidental unintended by product of unguided molecular activity from the debris of an exploded star. Just trying to share the truth of our God given spiritual nature.
Non sequitur in there. How we have missed your fallacies.
In my case, with massive relief.
For 'natural instinctive awareness', I would read 'evolved cognitive bias'. Awareness derives from perception, perception derives from sensory information capture, external sensory information would register on suitable inanimate and unbiased detectors.Glad you enjoyed your holiday, welcome back.
oh, I don't know, it reminds me of those old seaside amusement arcade games where something pops up and you have to hit them back down with a hammer again. Alans assertion and fallacy generators are a bit like that, he keeps them coming a pace and we keep knocking them back down.
I do wonder if some religious people, who give it large about their faith, are trying to convince themselves as well as others as to its merits.
you are the evidence, Floo.
Spot on, Floo!!
Do you think the same of atheists? Is Richard Dawkins really a closet Christian?
It is not surprising that many people in our increasingly secular world have their natural instinctive awareness of God quashed by media and peer pressure.On our recent cruising holiday (our first cruise!) we were in Malaga on the feast of Corpus Christi. We wanted to attend a church service, so I tried to look up service times at the big cathedral in Malaga. All the internet sights I tried said the cathedral was closed. The service desk on our cruise ship also said the cathedral was closed that day. On further interrogation on the internet I found on a Q and A forum that there were five services taking place that day, all open to the public. Apparently the tourist industry no longer recognise that cathedrals are still used as places of worship!So we enjoyed attending a packed cathedral celebrating the great feast of Corpus Christi.
It's like worrying about Crewe Alexandra. Aagh, I am one of the damned!
Tripadvisor. A tourist internet site. Did you try that? It was the second hit on Google when i searched for Malaga cathedral mass times!!!Took me less than two minutes.By the way. The first hit was thecatholictravelguide. It didn't have the mass times?!?
But in your scenario, there is no physical definition of what it is that captures or detects the sensory information you describe.
Such blasphemy warrants an eternity in the fires of Hull.
Just to note that it took me less than 15 seconds to find the link below of mass times at the cathedral in Malaga on 'festivos'.http://www.misas.org/p/santa-iglesia-catedral-basilica-malaga
Try biology, Alan (such as the bit between your ears).
Biology comprises physical reactions of material particles, but no definition of how these reactions get perceived into a single entity of awareness. Complexity does not define perception.
'Single entity' and AB goes full on into the begging the question fallacy. It is his bitch, his go to fallacy. He chooses it, and he chews it. He licks and he sucks it. It begs, he pops the question. Harder it asks, he is like, so hard.
It is amazing what my uncontrollable, naturally driven, deterministic brain cell activity can generate.
And woo, he throws off the tired begging the question, and goes for him, the unobtainable, he looks unbelievably good, too good. It is so so so hard to believe how gorgeous that big old incredulity fallacy is. He is a throbbing, pulsating, veiny fallacy of salty goodness. No wonder Alan clings to that!
