Pontiac/AquaBlue on Christmas

[Polly Parrot]

Yes...BUT...unlike the TREE HUGGER thread where I never stood my ground. I sufficient ammunition (scientific data) behind to survive the bouts. I will definitively be the scrooge, but...I will be stand true in the end.

GRAMMAR! It helps.

Which bigger picture? Nobody here is arguing that Yeshua ben Yousef was, with absolute certainty, born on the 25th of December in the year 0AD. But if you want to make an argument for a scientific viewpoint, use arguments that make sense. Don't just throw out unconnected baseless statements and abandon them the second someone points out a flaw.


I thought you didn't want to call it Christmas?

One, my argument make sense thank you. Two, I am calling it Christmas because I am using your term; not mine.

Also X-mas means Christmas, then I will never say x-mas again. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[sparkchaser]

What argument? You are making several.

 

[-Carlos-]

Go one at a time. I am not a speed typist and I want to answer each of you.

 

[beer good]

One, my argument make sense thank you.

If you say so. List them, please. Starting with what, exactly, it is you're arguing.

 

[-Carlos-]

Oooo another Tree Hugger thread! Yes, please.

Also, resurrect the old one for those who weren't around to enjoy.

It is NOT another Tree Thread. I will be AMAZED if I stand ALONE when it comes to religion vs science.

O but you will using your 'arguments'.

 

[-Carlos-]

What kind of scientific data?

Ah...the question I have been awaiting. Yes!

What kind of scientific data do you require...be specific.

Oh, and...please declare yourself a ID backer please. I need to know who's who first.

 

[-Carlos-]

If you say so. List them, please. Starting with what, exactly, it is you're arguing.

OK. So I would think that the first argument should be this: Which is closer to truth (reality): religious myth or scientific facts?

Make your points first and then I will answer...in that order.

My choice is science. Your turn.

O, I thought you were bringing forth your arguments, which are always ever so convincing, and then have people respond to it so you can ignore them. Yes?

 

[-Carlos-]

Well? Do lean your logic more on religion than you science or vice versa?

 

[sparkchaser]

Ah...the question I have been awaiting. Yes!

I am...but...I answer your issues first.

 

[Polly Parrot]

I've no idea what "you science" is, sorry.

 

[-Carlos-]

O but you will using your 'arguments'.

From past experience, let me just say One Thing.........

Let Go Of The Rope! There is no one else up there.

Honestly? I think you're derailing the discussion into a ridiculous strawman argument which has nothing to do with the original statement that this thread started with.

But for whatever reason, yes, I consider the existence of a tradition which, in English, is named "Christmas" to be a scientifically proven fact.

 

[-Carlos-]

I've no idea what "you science" is, sorry.

I am trying to type as fast as I can since it's only some many of you and only one of me. I'll rephrase: Do you lean mostly on religious viewpoints or on scientific viewpoints. Sorry for the typo

 

[-Carlos-]

let go of the rope! There is no one else up there.

leave the past behind you

So then, you believe in God?
