    It very well could be. Depends on who you are conversing with.

    Between you and I, that is not a fact (since I don't accept that as a fact). Between you and Diablo, for example, it would be a fact (since you both accept it as a fact).

    No, a particular word is not what speeds the conversation up. You and Diablo's acceptance of "gfm7175 is a ridiculous tool" is what speeds up the conversation, since there is no need to form arguments about it because you both agree with each other.

    See above.

    No such thing. Either something is accepted as 'fact' or it is rejected, thus arguments must be formed.

    Yup. Anything may or may not be a fact. That, however, doesn't make a fact truth or falsehood.

    You have yet to define the term "fallacious".

    There is no "official" dictionary definition. Just dictionary definitions. Dictionaries tend to contradict one another...

    Not "imaginary". I already told you what definition I am using. A "fallacy" is an error of logic. A "fallacious" argument is an argument containing one or more logical fallacies.

    The Constitution itself is the authoritative source. I have referred you to the applicable sections of it. You simply deny the Constitution because you don't like it. You want fascism by oligarchy instead.

    The opposite is true, actually.

    You, like Diablo, deny philosophy.

    It’s a fact because by your own assertion, it’s just a short hand way of saying you’re an instrument of Trump,Putin and white supremest everywhere. Whether it’s true or not according to you, is not the issue. You are a tool.

    No. I’m not doing your work for you. It’s your choice to remain ignorant of word meanings. This isn’t grade school. You’re suppose to be an adult with responsibility to be truthful and accurate, not just make s.h
    I.t up.

    They claim and rant a superior position and SOP cant support any of it.
    and what do they respond with?
    They expect everyone else to support their rants claims for them. They know they are false
    Yes and yes, everyone else is answering the tough questions as we can see neoatheists have nothing of value to add to this thread because they are incapable of answering the easiest questions.


    They wont because they cant because their whole atheological premise is built on illogical, irrational fallacies, proven by their failures to support time and time again! (and they know it)

    They have yet to post a link to their top secret 'official' dictionary with all their top secret 'official' definitions!

    Conservatives have a history in believing illogical fallacies that no other political faction on earth believes in.
    And you call anyone else illogical ?
    From being for trickle down, against AGW, against universal background checks, against universal healthcare, for voter suppression; you're on the wrong side of history and logic.
    I suppose your preference for apartheid and dictatorial white idols makes you fell superior, but you’re not.

    I can imagine how difficult that is to comprehend, that should help.

    Kneejerk denialism does NOT alter factual reality.

    You are NOT entitled to your own IMAGINARY definition of terms.

    Just pointing at the Constitution does NOT support your FALLACIOUS allegation which are BOTH erroneous are ILLOGICAL!

    Too bad that all you have is denialism without substance in your posts.

    But that is your problem, not mine.

    Define "denialism".
    Define "factual".
    Define "reality".

    You use all of these terms as buzzwords.

    Redefinition Fallacy. (existing <-> imaginary).

    You also continue to deny Philosophy. How do you think words get defined to begin with? Hmmmmm, somebody comes up with a definition?? Dictionaries don't just spit out definitions on their own...

    More buzzwords...

    More buzzwords...

    Inversion Fallacy.

    I ignored them on sight. They are not arguments. Come up with your own arguments.

    No, that has nothing at all to do with governance. You're talking about decisions by individuals, not governance.

    The Christian god is king of the universe, and if you don't follow his will, you will go to hell for eternity - that is the model of governance we get from the bible, from Christian emperors, from western Kings and Popes.

    A government built on democratic representation, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, separation of powers, checks and balances, equal treatment under the law, etc. are the fundamental improvements our founders devised, and those did not come from our religious heritage - a heritage of religious intolerance to the point of torture and execution, justified by the absolute intollerance of God the King.

    Jesus didn't talk about civil rights of humans. The bible is about duty, not rights. Christians have duties.

    Claiming our government came from Christianity makes no sense. It came from the opposite direction - a direction built on the fact that humans have rights.

    If you knew history you would know our gubmint was invented by a country with a Christian King that actually had Parsons on staff.
    yep

    So much for trying to have a reasonable debate with neoatheists! So much for neoatheists answering any questions forget tough questions. Hell they cant even tell us what the words mean that they throw around. All they post throughout the whole thread is vague buzzwords that cant be used to form any kind of argument with substance.

    This is what an eight year old boy sounds like when he can’t get his own way.

    and that is what a thread that turned out to be a massive failure looks and sounds like!

    I'm still waiting for the link to the neoatheist top secret 'official' dictionary with all those top secret 'official' definitions!

    Except for the doubt part, the computer info that I stated is directly from an internet search. Your dependence on the woowwooism accusation has gone too far.
