I agree with the implied content, but not the spirit, of your post. My thinking has become quite existential/absurdist in nature, and I am currently working on an Argument from Apathy, which I think is quite powerful.
But an honest approach to reaching such profoundly simple truths should be har istence is not the issue."

Originally posted by Wibble WobbleLOL! Boy, you are so very stupid! God's prophecies are being fulfilled right before your eyes. Russia and her Muslim allies are nearing attack of Israel. Iran has threatened to destroy Israel. The attack on Israel is imminent. It is God's Word! And, no one will come to Israel's defense. Only then will God intervene and show the children of Israel that God is with them, and He keeps His promises! Holy and Mighty is Jehovah!

EDIT: I very much look forward to seeing your "argument from apathy."
Originally posted by dj2beckerYeah, but then how did froggy's post come into existence? Are you honestly suggesting that froggy's body just somehow happened to incidentally activate the "post" button as he slumped lifelessly to his desk after consuming the poison? He would have to land squarely on the mouse button and the mouse arrow would have to be perfectly placed on the screen. Do you know how incredibly small the chances are of his post coming to existence through such accidental occurrences? I think we can safely say that the existence of froggy's post is proof positive that the God of the Bible exists.
It's a good idea not to drink poison just after you start a sentence. 😞

[b]Atheism is not a defining feature of existentialism...
That is exactly right. It is neither defining nor essential, nor here, nor there -- which I view as a consequence of what we already know, namely that the labels 'a/theist' convey extremely little information (and virtually no information of importance, I think now). The petty connotations ...[text shortened]... ty of room for doting on the profoundly useless philosophical aspects, ie., "moon gazing".[/b]
