karl 12 Posted December 4, 2008 Author #26 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Lol, I found my new religion! ARGUMENT FROM BLINDNESS (II) (1) God is love. (2) Love is blind. (3) Stevie Wonder is blind. (4) Therefore, Stevie Wonder is God. (5) Therefore, God exists. Gilmoreguy-its pretty hard to argue with that irrefutable logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekorig Posted December 4, 2008 #27 Share Posted December 4, 2008 ARGUMENT FROM IMPERFECT READING COMPREHENSION (1) I have a 12 page argument for the existence of God. (2) Anyone who reads and comprehends my argument will be convinced that God exists. (3) You are not convinced that God exists. (4) Either you didn't read my essay or you didn't understand it. (5) You cannot refute my argument unless you have read it and understood it. (6) You cannot refute my argument that God exists. (7) Therefore, God exists. So true with some belivers, not necesarily christians, in this forums... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyver Posted December 4, 2008 #28 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Haha that's so funny. How bout some more. a. I always start useless threads with a common anti-God theme. b. Therefore God exists. a. I have anger issues. b. Therefore God exists. a. Anal fissures and chronic halitosis have robbed me of joy. b. Therefore God exists. a. I'd be much more comfortable frying in hell for eternity than getting saved. b. Therefore God exists. a. A creepy Pentecostal Lady with bad hair scared me as a child. b. Therefore God exists.

(4) Therefore, Stevie Wonder is God. (5) Therefore, God exists. He is responsible for the theme song to Jungle Fever.

SQLserver Posted December 4, 2008 #31 Share Posted December 4, 2008 a. I'd be much more comfortable frying in hell for eternity than getting saved. b. Therefore God exists.

The One Who Is Posted December 4, 2008 #32 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Haha that's so funny. How bout some more. [snip] You know, since those are more like atheism arguments, it would have been altogether funnier had you replaced "God exists" with "God does not exist."

Bez Posted December 4, 2008 #33 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Haha that's so funny. How bout some more. (1) I have a tissue to wipe away your tears. (2) Therefore God exists. You know Guyver, time and time again you take things so personal. Most of those on that site make sense. ARGUMENT FROM RAIN, a.k.a. PERCHANCE'S SISTER'S ARGUMENT (III) (1) I wanted it to be a sunny day. (2) I prayed it wouldn't rain. (3) We had two thunderstorms. (4) Obviously, God didn't want to answer my prayer. (5) Of course not! What a selfish thing to pray for! How dare I try to compel God to my selfish desires! (6) The rain was God's punishment for my selfish desires. (7) Therefore, God exists. This makes total sense of why people leave Christianity or never convert to Christianity. Religion has so many contradictions it makes me sick.

The God must exist comedic text wasn't funny It could have been funny but it wasn't Therefore, God must exist. Ya, they weren't funny. Very poorly written. It'd have been funnier if they'd use some real arguments that people actually believe, which very few of those were. For example, this is funny, which I got off an evangelical website which was supposed to be serious, proving that there are no atheists: If God exists, he is all knowing To know if God exists, one must know everything If someone says God doesn't exist, then they believe they know everything If one believes they know everything, they believe they are God Therefore there are no atheists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them were rather low quality, but I know quite a few people who among them have used many of those arguments seriously...

BlindMessiah Posted December 4, 2008 #45 Share Posted December 4, 2008 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deductive_reasoning what's scary is it's logically sound, although untrue. LOL! It actually isn't logically sound. If God exists, he is all knowing (unproven assumption) To know if God exists, one must know everything (one must only know if God exists) If someone says God doesn't exist, then they believe they know everything (they only believe they know whether God exists) If one believes they know everything, they believe they are God (even if being God means you know everything, which is unproven, knowing everything doesn't mean you are God) Therefore there are no atheists (claiming to know God doesn't exists, isn't even required to be an atheist, you simply have to believe God doesn't exist) So the logical chain is extremely fallible, which is what makes it so funny.

You do not understand the difference between logically sound and true. Something can be logically sound and untrue. When using logic, whether the base statement is true or not is irrelevant. that's what the link was for. Educate yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravergirl Posted December 4, 2008 #48 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) You do not understand the difference between logically sound and true. Something can be logically sound and untrue. When using logic, whether the base statement is true or not is irrelevant. that's what the link was for. Educate yourself. Agreed. But the flow from one idea to the next doesn't flow logically. even if the statements are logical conclusions or statements, they don't flow into a logical,um, block of statements.....like this Fire Trucks are red Because they've got 8 wheels and 4 people on them 8 + 4 = 12 There are 12 inches in a foot One foot is a ruler There was a ruler named Queen Elizabeth A ship named Queen Elizabeth sails the seas In the seas are fish On the fish are fins The Fins fought the Russians And Russians are red.

It's not true, But it is logical. If you can't understand that, YOU NEED TO EDUCATE YOURSELF. I'm not trying to insult you, please don't take it that way.
