Oh Christ, we've got a rampant religious zealot derailing threads.

Honestly, religious discrimination is not ok.

If you're stupid enough to believe fairy stories, you should be pitied.

We shouldn't make fun of those with low intelligence.

 

admire your pluck moneider

would you consider mentoring biffo on his (currently destructive) path to enlightenment?

 

I'm meeting Real Madrid players at a press event today. I'll see if Ronaldo is available.

Can you tell them I thought their game on Saturday night against AS Roma was one of the most boring exhibitions I have had the misfortune of sitting through. $160 a seat for that rubbish was laughable.

I'm pleased we have diversity on this board and some Christian members. It confirms my Atheism isn't the root cause of the MFC's woes as I'd often wondered.

Look at all my posts. They are all responses to peoples criticisms. Would you prefer to block your ears, or have those who disagree with you to keep quiet?

If the soccer missionaries want to convert us heathens they should at least play three man forward lines and second rate goal keepers.

The only thing undercutting the existence of god is the complete and utter lack of evidence.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. The burden of proof is on you

etc etc

Yawn.

When you think someone has potential, how do you "prove" it?

Have a little faith. You might not be as grumpy all the time :P

 

If this is correct, you could never be rational in believing a report on the morning news that the winning pick in last night’s lottery was a certain number. This is because it is an extraordinarily improbable event and therefore you should never believe a report of such a thing. But clearly that’s ridiculous.

In establishing the probability of an event, you must consider more than simply the inherent probability of that event. You also have to take into account the probability of the evidence be just as it is, had that event not taken place.

So, with respect to the miracles in the resurrection of Jesus, the question would be what is the probability that we should have things like the empty tomb, post-mortem appearances of Jesus, the sudden origin of the disciple’s faith (facts which are widely accepted by New Testament scholars), if in fact the resurrection had not occurred.

Also I think there are some very strong arguments for God existence, in addition to the inner witness of the Holy Spirit. This would take way too much time to cover though. Type ‘reasonable faith’ (for beginners) on google if you’re interested.

Mods please ban me. I love arguing about these thing way too much, and have horrible self-control :P.

(Written in word. Hence the different font).

Someone wins lotto most weeks. I know 2 people (personally) that have won 1st division.

I don't know anyone that has been resurrected, whats more I don't know anyone that knows anyone that has been resurrected.

Is that the best you've got? No wonder I don't believe.

Yawn.

You can see potential. And you can be wrong.

Faith starts when intellect stops. Read into that what you will.

personally, i'd use a voltmeter :lol:

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
