Great bit or reasoning, some what hypocritical. So Criags not here? Who or which toher authors or scientists that have been quoted, has ever been here? How much was summarized & provided. that came into discussion? Don't look foolish especially from someone who has little understanding, as you often say of me.
I am saying that in order to have a discussion about Craig's argument, you need to state the argument first.
I agree, that would be the case IF that was my intention. But here's the thing. You and Keith made your statements first, wanting that discussion, adding another argument. You both took from my post where I added alternative terms to Drew2008 the 'nature of the gaps' post, which have similar meanings, where they could be interchangeble.
And so I mentioned Craig uses one of them...so what?
You brought up Craig in multiple posts. This is the first post in which you referenced something Craig allegedly said, and you referenced him in several later posts as well.
I brought up OTHER terms used by theists. You (plural) tried to find an argument there. The post was to Drew2008... and quite simply...very simply, I mentioned Craig because he used one of the terms.
Adding to that, William Craig Lane has used the term 'science of the gaps' and I have heard someone use the term 'materialism of the gaps..'
Choices choices.
Then I asked you to summarize Craig's argument so I could address it. You didn't do that. You didn't even provide a link to your source. I am not a fucking mind reader, and I have no fucking clue what source you used to find this quote you referenced.
You asked me quite a few questions, and I still have to explain a little further, regarding other posters too, which I will.
You
created the false illusion, that I used Tigers post to explain goddit, IOW you were speaking for me. Rhea does this too. Making the false claim, as you so called, try to put it, by saying, "
you didn't answer." Answer what? That I claim goddit, quoting a mismatched response (
Like atheist I require evidence not just someone's word for it.) with a different context? A noticeable mismatched response - my post #204 responding to your post # 203. You edited your post #203, replacing it with the line "you didn't answer," as I've mentioned.
I'm wondering, why you didn't think to "answer that question for me, as well?" Similar to ventriloquism, which unfortunately doesn't quite work here,
especially when we are both speaking for me, but not in quite the same way,
so to speak. Saw your lips move btw
.
Yes, you are not a
mind reader but you do seem to act as if you do. Like our other friends, relating to the Craig discussion, you told me that he was wrong, being in disagreement with his use of the term.
I asked you (plural) which video or debate did you see, so we can get to see why you make these assertions - which is
so logically at odds, WHEN you're asking me for links, which you yourselves should have provided, as YOUR source, being of a great
advantage to your Craig "argument" -
highlighting WHERE a bout's in the video or debate, I didn't understand Craig's use of the "science of the gaps" term, or why Craig used it.
Ok, you don't believe I understand what Craig was arguing about, and, you (plural) asserted that notion, when there WASN'T any summary of Craigs argument, in the first place coming from me - which would have given you that reason for belief (correct term), indicating where abouts I didn't understand.
Your statement sort of resembles an internet phishing scam, or a magicians cold-reading trick. I provide you the details and then you can tell me after... why you thought, beforehand, the reasons I don't understand. Now I know you regard me as of a lesser reasoning individual, but even I would certainly not make that kind of statement.
I asked you summarize Craig's argument because you keep bringing it up, and I don't know what argument of Craig's you are referencing. You still haven't provided this information, and now you are accusing me of trying to scam you. Where is the scam? I am asking you to explain the argument YOU BROUGHT UP so we can discuss it. Why is this so hard to understand?
I've explained in the above.
I should have just said ... Can you quote the actual argument I was making regarding Craig?
