So, for some reason, my philosophy prof has taken it upon himself to devote one-third of this term to debating the existence of god. Everyone's sick of it but him, but it keeps going. Anyway, in philosophy discussion I committed both of my favorite kinds of heresy ( Read more... )

The next time that girl says God isn't a douche, point her toward the book of Job, which is pretty much God saying that he gets to be a douche if he wants to be one.

I would have LOVED to sit in on this discussion. I would have brought popcorn and tea and laughed through the whole damned thing. Seriously. Bravo! :D

If you're talking about actual documented proof (hard evidence), I don't think David Copperfield can make the lame walk again, or restore sight to blind people, or cure people of leprosy.
DC can maybe get people to pretend like they are lame, blind, or lepers, and then -poof- cure them, but then you can't really provide evidence for the miracle.

Well, the evidence we were discussing was if people had recorded diaries or we could get other eyewitness testimonies. Either way it would be difficult to differentiate between making the lame walk again and hiring someone to pretend they were lame.

Actually, someone brought up feeding five thousand people with two loaves of bread and a fish, and for some reason we ended up talking about that for the rest of the class. Why the heck did he need two loaves of bread and only one fish, anyway?

If I understand correctly, the two loaves of bread and one fish was just all they had. It's not like Jesus went, "Fetch me two loaves of bread and one fish." Rather, some guy said "Oh no, all we have is two loaves of bread and one fish," and Jesus was all like "Don't worry, it's cool."

"Well, sort of. I haven't updated in a long time because about 70% of my time is either boring or of a nature that most people don't want to hear about."

Technically, that was the case before, but it didn't stop you then.

Yeah, except back then I spent about 9 hours a day sitting at my computer, 3 of which I had no idea what to do with, so I did stuff like that. Such is no longer the case.

I can't believe you've already been in BC for two months, and I still haven't found the time to go visit you.
