You are coming up with percentages on claims that have never been proven possible.
Probability is a mathematical concept that demands a verified sample from a total number of cases.
As far as we can tell non of the ideas you do compare have ever been supported by Objective evidence..
How can you ever talk about probabilities when you don't have a single verified case proving its possible nature? — Nickolasgaspar
Except God didn't made people sick, he gave them free will (freedom) and they made their choice to trust the snake right? — SpaceDweller
Right, and even though those religious books show all the evil that come out of trusting the snake you choose to follow the same mistakes of Adam and Eve.
My point is that I don't see why would God have to be blamed.
But consider if God gave us no free will, wouldn't that makes us hopeless slaves of God, wouldn't such God be unjust God? — SpaceDweller
A completely illogical comment!Scientific rigor has nothing to do with basic logic — Nickolasgaspar
You made a claim and you provided a statistical probability for a metaphysical hypothesis without being able to demonstrate Possibility first! — Nickolasgaspar
Let me help you with a simple example. — Nickolasgaspar
Now if you want to calculate probabilities of life in the solar system you wi ll need to compare the known case you have ont planets having life and those who have not and apply it to the total number of planets and moons of the system (number of planets and their conditions).
This is nothing scientific or special. We are talking about basic Logic. — Nickolasgaspar
What we can say for sure is that the Multiverse is a ar more reasonable hypothesis because we know that a Universe can exist, we have examples in the nature that more than one processes can occur and we have our Math from different fields of study pointing to the idea — Nickolasgaspar
God must have made the snake and allowed it to tempt Eve. — universeness
Yes it did make people flawed. god is described as omniscient so original sin was part of its design.
Free will cannot exist if the omnis are true. — universeness
A completely illogical comment! — universeness
-You are explaining why you used that way and I have no reason to doubt it. I don't have issues with your intention, I only point out that the way you decided to presenting (using statistical probabilities) is nonsensical and wrong...that's all. Again you can not assign probabilities when you have zero samples to study and compare.I assign 0.1% credence to the god posit as MY OWN PERSONAL way to explain to others my level of belief in the truth of the god posit. This is a perfectly valid position. The fact that YOU find it not mathematically sound means nothing to me and I doubt it means much to anyone else except YOU. — universeness
If you need to understand your error, you will have to focus on the example non my segway lol.!I suggest you first try to help yourself! — universeness
The snake is the devil embodied, and we know (according to scriptures) that God did not create the devil, instead God created an angel who later desired to be God and so he was cast out of heavens — SpaceDweller
God could have prevented A&E trouble with the snake, but then there would be no true freedom for A&E.
Freedom of free will clear - it's my own, and my own only choice - not up to anyone else but me — SpaceDweller
Again your opinion doesn't change the fact that Logic exposes your irrational attempt to define probabilities without establishing possibility first and without any samples to evaluate. sorry. — Nickolasgaspar

Its not an issue for you being mathematically unsound...but mathematically invalid (I hope you know the difference between soundness and validity). You can not conclude to a mathematical figure without first numbers of different cases out of a total. You have no numbers to arrive to statistical figure — Nickolasgaspar
Why is this so difficult for you — Nickolasgaspar
Sounds like a terrible dystopia
I am sorry.Don't apologise. — universeness
-And we call them irrational individuals. This is why most of us are really bad calculating probabilities and lose their money in gamble.......or believe in weird claims.In the REAL world REAL PEOPLE use percentages to quantify a belief level towards a particular posit all of the time. — universeness
-Finding excuses won't make your irrational attempt define probabilities in numbers!!!! on ideas that have no numbers to offer look better. I might have sinister motives...but your screwup stands on its own.You know this fine well but you choose to roleplay the indignant analyst and search for some points of minutia you can give the kiss of life to. You simply come across as a pompous ass. — universeness
Logic is employed in science, but in your case we don't need science to spot the error in your reasoning. So why using Science as an excuse for your mistake.Why is the fact that basic logic is very much employed in science so difficult for you! Mr Minutia! — universeness
I might have sinister motives...but your screwup stands on its own. — Nickolasgaspar
You should use Logic and its rules in all the aspects of your life...even when arguing against magical thinkers — Nickolasgaspar

I am 99.9% sure gods don't exist. — universeness
But how can you be so sure if you don't know if they exist in the first place? — Hillary
I don't need advice from Mr Minutia who has already admitted to having sinister motives.
Just in case you didn't understand my 0.1% belief level in the god posit, let me try to put it another way for you. I am 99.9% sure gods don't exist. Using a little basic logic to help you further. That means I am ALMOST 100% sure gods don't exist. I hope you understand a bit better now, you pompous ass — universeness
Many worlds is a posit I personally consider to have a higher credence to the 0.1% credence I assign to the god posit. — universeness
That means I am ALMOST 100% sure gods don't exist. I hope you understand a bit better now, you pompous ass. — universeness
All they have to do is show up and submit themselves to authentication tests. If they do that then we can both say hello to them. I think I will probably try to attack them for all the vile things they let happen in the past. We can release our responsibility for the actions of nefarious humans past and present, to them.
I would be happy to do that. Maybe that's why they don't show up. They are big fearties! — universeness
-The time to accept their existence is only after you have managed to objectively verify their existence...not a second sooner.I mean, they either exist or they don't. What's so bad about it if they existed? We should be lucky they created a universe! — Hillary
The time to accept their existence is only after you have managed to objectively verify their existence... — Nickolasgaspar
when in your initial claim you were give your personal value on the credence you of the claim itself — Nickolasgaspar
As I have explained to you, you can not do that. You can not provide a probability number on a supernatural claim — Nickolasgaspar
A percentage about your certainty, sure you can do that — Nickolasgaspar
-wrong? lol I thought you were not interested in convincing me? hahahaWrong, dear Nickolast... Their existence comes first. Whether we are able to "objectively verify" their existence remains to be seen. Their existence is for me objectively verified in dream and thought. — Hillary
what gods and universeness's inability to understand how we define probabilities have to do with a discussion on how Pseudo Philosophical solutions (Economics/Politics) have meshed up our lives? — Nickolasgaspar
As I have explained to you, you can not do that. You can not provide a probability number on a supernatural claim
— Nickolasgaspar
Yes you can Mr Minutia! — universeness
But then not say you are 100% sure? — Hillary
Then they are not very impressive. They created a 3D space they cant appear in.What if the can't show up? — Hillary
thought you were not interested in convincing me? hahaha — Nickolasgaspar
That would make me as dogmatic as theists! We have already had that chat! — universeness
Then they are not very impressive. They created a 3D space they cant appear in.
If I create a virtual world, I can appear inside it as an avatar. — universeness
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
