Ok...
but I still don't see how that's not an assumption.

By assuming I would have to have blind faith. I don't assume the existence of God. I am aware of the existence of God. Like C.G. Jung said in 1960, "I don't need to believe. I know."

The unicorn argument is soo 1990's Swami.

So by being deliberately obtuse, you are saying that you can find no flaw in my logic? Why, if a man has the guidance of God behind him can he not answer a simple question?

As if you would know why anyone finds God in the first place.

Is there any Christian love in that statement? It sounds quite negative and devoid of any compassionate wisdom.

I'm not a Christian, Swami. I don't even relate to Sunnism or Shiism. Beyond Sufism, I don't see how one can be any more compassionate.

Was I being uncompassionate? If so my apologies.

Substitute God-like for Christian and derogatory for uncompassionate.

Noise aside, I would STILL like for you to directly answer why you find my analogy to be flawed. If you cannot, then merely say so.

Elaborate your anology, swami. Referring to unicorns as a point of position doesn't give much even for Markos to work with.

The analogy doesn't need to be expanded. How will muddying it with more words clarify a simple question? Substitute any mythological creature for Unicorn if it makes you feel better.

Now stop the dodging and answer or admit you have no response.

To be honest, my mouth is killing me from getting my wisdoms pulled and I really don't have the energy tonight to run around in circles with you Swami. Take this however you want, at this moment I honestly don't care. :shrug:

Good luck with you post operative progress man, my wisdom teeth were so badly impacted that they had to be surgically removed under general anaethesia, and remember(if you haven't slept since the operation) that: A little bit of blood, and a lot of saliva looks like a LOT of blood, especially when it's on your pillow when you wake up  :crazy:

Heh yeah they had to knock me out for my wisdom teeth, too.

I had FIVE wisdom teeth...does that make me incredibly wise? Or just a freak? :grin:

I don't think anybody in the world would claim to believe something, but not know it.

Belief is thinking that you know something.

Well Bom, you gotta understand my surgery was pretty nasty, i had sticthes in all of the affected gum areas. Upon waking and seeing my pristine white pillow drenched in blood(which really was only a lot of saliva mixed with a bit of blood) my first thought was that i had broken some stitches while i slept. Apparently having one's entire anatomy doing weird stuff after general anaethesia is fairly common like puting my entire mouth into slack jaw position and letting all that gunk out of my mouf while i slept  :crazy:

And knowing is knowing without the need of thinking or believing :smile:
