Whatever. Your implications were very clear. You basically said "why believe it? It was one single-parent birth, unnatural, with the humans who were there being long dead, unable to be interrogated, and scientifically ignorant".
No, that is nothing like what I said, and it is not even close to citing "evidence virgin births cannot happen", like you either erroneously or dishonestly claimed I did before.
You are carefully avoiding making, what I call, "a statement of truth" because you know you'd be called out on it for some sort of evidence.
I make true statements all the time, genius. It is unreasonable to believe that the story of the virgin birth ever happened in reality. That is true, for the reasons I've given
ad nauseum.
Saying its "unreasonable" is only a opinion, and that effectively absolves you of providing evidence to back your claim.
No, it is a fact. Any reasonable person would reject that story as an error for any of a hundred reasons. It is unreasonable in the same way it is unreasonable to believe a leprechaun stole your car keys when you can't find them. The only people that believe the story are those that make an exception for it because they
want it to be true.
??
Not at all. I was countering you.
Bull fucking
shit. Your argument expressed incredulity at the proposition that the
beginning of the universe did not have a creator (presupposing that a beginning exists), then you falsely claimed that you had "counter[ed] with evidence that everything ... had a beginning
except the natural universe." You are either too stupid to remember your own statements, or you are lying.
If its unreasonable for me to accept a virgin birth because it simply didn't have the science behind it, then I can reasonably reject an "ageless" universe because everything in our natural world had a beginning.
That doesn't follow
at all, and you are an idiot for thinking it does.
So matter has always existed?
Do you know what the first law of thermodynamics says?
Ok, I am effectively confused.
No, you are literally confused, in so many ways.
In what way has the universe always existed?
There are no values of time where the universe does not exist. The universe has existed for all time.
Certainly not in the form it is in now, right?
Why do you think the universe has a "form"? What would that even mean?
I didn't accuse you of anything, I asked a question.
Then I'm telling you how you can answer it yourself. If you can't find an example of me "labelling something fiction," then what do you suppose the answer to your question is, boy wonder?
I'm trying to understand what you mean by "snopes.com" didn't exist way back when, or video evidence.
You seem to be saying that since we don't have digital proof (totally disregarding the limitations of the time period), we can say those things recorded didn't happen.
Your reasoning and reading comprehension are some of the worst I've ever encountered on the internet, and I've been debating this stuff for
decades.
We don't have video evidence fir a TON of things we believe are true...you seem to arbitrarily apply this level of evidence to the Bible.
No, I don't. The point is that your specious argument that the miraculous stories in the bible can be believed because someone would have "fact-checked" them if they weren't true is flatly preposterous. How do you propose that "fact-checking" would have been conducted, oh master historian?
Can I rightfully say that we cannot believe aliens exist because we have no video, photographic evidence?
No, and that is in no way analogous to my argument. PAY ATTENTION.
This argument is again, inconsistent.
What the fuck would
you know about it?
