If one assumes no knowledge about the metaphysical can be transferred to the real world, it follows mathematically that man must be wrong about every assertion about the metaphysical.

Sorry but the only thing I find easy to see and hard to overlook is your intellectual ego to be honest.

Maybe we didn't get what Jesus' message was all about.

If we had, our world would have been much better.

Of course, this is just a question, it may not be true, but anyway let's think out of the box just this time.
excellent question. my answer; I'd rather be wrong for the right reasons, than right for the wrong ones

Unlike you, I prefer to know something about a subject before I speak about it.

dunno if that's right or not.

My metaphysics prof threw me out of class for cheating on the final. He accused me of looking into the soul of the girl next to me.

Your knowledge is expressed in the form of meaningless gibberish, leading me to assume that whatever you know was copy-and-pasted from some blog.

meaningless?

You've just dismissed all of the history of philosophy and all notable European and Islamic philosophers and thinkers?

Typical of you.

Gibberish?

Yes, I'm sure it must seem so to one so ignorant, uneducated, ill-informed and downright unintelligent as yourself.

You should not let your mind wander about -- it is far far too small to be allowed out on its own.

Drop the condescending sneer and realize that there are people in the world who are smarter than you on some things, Mr. Politician.

See what I mean? You resort to personal attacks because you have nothing better! Save your accusations of stupidity for people who really deserve it. Like Phil Jackson.

Phil Jackson was the best professional basketball coach since Red Auerbach. Why should I call him stupid?

You, on the other hand, are simply a fruitcake with a personality disorder.

You are probably not even an Arab. Everything you say smacks of fantasy and untruth.

I started a thread like this some time ago, not realising that the idea has been kicking around for a long time. It's called Deism.
