That's all the equipment we've got friend. "Nothing" is a harsh description of its power to explain our predicament.Yep...all we have are descriptions from the human imagination.
We have nothing to go on. Nothing.
So, we are ALL atheists or agnostic, as NONE of us actually knows what a "god" is. Until we establish and prove what a "god" is, it's just fantasy.That's all the equipment we've got friend. "Nothing" is a harsh description of its power to explain our predicament.
don't have to get all defensive mateIf you say I'm not doing well that's calls for a well deserved cup of tea ;-) (Do keep telling me what I think though - it's really entertaining.)
OK big boy, the Master of Balliol may help you in your state of blissful ignorance on matters eschatological:don't have to get all defensive mate if you think i'm putting words into your mouth then let me know, i'm a big boy i can take it but whilst you make bold claims you don't back up with facts then i'll tell what i think you think(is that ok)
ignorance is bliss i guess
I was taken aback by your precipitate assumptions:A delightfully ambiguous response!
Since you don’t know me I assume that it isn’t a term of endearment and just accept that you have realised the error in your argument.
So pray for clarity?OK big boy, the Master of Balliol may help you in your state of blissful ignorance on matters eschatological:
"One who is in doubt about God may rationally pray for enlightenment about his existence and nature: It surely is no more unreasonable than the act of a man adrift in the ocean, trapped in a cave, or stranded on a mountainside, who cries for help though he may never be heard or fires a signal which may never be seen. And if there is such a God, then such prayer cannot be less pleasing to him than the attitude of a man who takes no interest in a question so important, or in a question so difficult would not welcome assistance beyond human powers."

Add an intercessionary prayer on my behalf by all means ;-)its your ignorance i was alluding to my friend
