It's a conclusion based on you not being able to provide an answer to the question just a series of avoidance techniques and fallacies

Are you talking about yourself here?
I have asked you questions and then you disappear; and never answer the questions.

I posted some more questions and repeats on the thread where you said Paula suggested that the cardinal not be allowed to speak. This was clearly not said by her and you were shown this by me and several other posters. And yet you kept saying the same thing, despite being shown you were wrong.
I agree with Diacanu.

Fides_et_ratio:

Why was the Cardinal's lecture given such prominent billing on a national news programme AT ALL?

Clearly an admission that the Cardinal's response to Richard Dawkins et al should not be given a public forum. As I've said before, what is really being said is, I disagree with what you say, AND your right to say it.This has more than a hint of the totalitarian about it.

Listen, you obstinant, obtuse, obfuscating, obdurate mooncalf: You are wrong.
You have been answered by myself, Paula, epeeist, Dr. Benway and perhaps others. This conclusion of yours has been shown to be incorrect and yet you continue to draw the same wrong conclusion.
To repeat an assertion that has been demonstrated to be false is not reasonable. But you are not using reason are you? Your feelings are the arbiter of truth for you.
Why do you post here at all?
You see, that question is similar to Paula's question about the cardinal. Why should anyone who spouts nonsense and is immune to reason be given a PROMINENT forum to speak?
You will also notice that no one is banning you or saying you can't speak your nonsense. I am calling into question the validity of your comments. Why do you post if no matter what is said in response is ignored? Why should we listen to you when you do not listen to us? It has been demonstrated again and again that you and your cardinal are nonsense speakers. Why do we need to provide a forum for this at public expense? Why is the nonsense of the cardinal afforded such respect?
Those are the questions that are being asked and need to be answered.

BTW: Will you answer my question as to why you assume Richard wanted to be treated differently from a politician by the interviewer when there was no evidence of this whatsoever?

I can't speak for others but when I said, "Thanks for the summary," I was joking.
I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer but I'm not a spoon.
I'm not sure that many posters actually thought the article was real. It was semi-funny. To treat it as though it was an actual recount of what the cardinal said can be a form of humour. To treat the absurd as actual can be funny.
I do not know for sure if that was the case with all posters but it is a possibility.

Now, I've heard that hell is just an absence of God. If that is the case then we don't have to worry about warm beer and cold coffee. I think we need to kick the party planning into high gear.
We have lots of roasted meat and booze and someone mentioned potato salad. I make a wicked (ha ha) Greek salad. The secret ingredient is honey. I add a little bit to the dressing.

listening to RD this morning asking John Humphries to treat Cardinal Cormac like a politician, whilst expecting John Humphries to treat him anything like a politician. It showed a peculiar grasp on logic from a slef-proclaimed champion of reason.

Do you mean anything but like a politician?

If so, how do you come to this belief?
What was it that Dawkins said that enabled you to see into his mind and discover what his personal feelings were?
Is this mere projection on your part?
I'll listen to the interview again but I don't remember Richard indicating that he did or didn't want to be treated as a politician.
Do you always make stuff up like this?

You interpret this from Paula:

Why was the Cardinal's lecture given such
prominent billing
on a national news programme

as this:

The Cardinal (speaking on behalf of millions of people whose faith Dawkins has made lots of money criticising) should not be given a platform to respond.

There is a difference.
I'll explain it for you.
It has to do with the words I bolded. Why is the cardinal given such respect? Why are his views not questioned as would the views of any other guest? Why is the cardinal allowed to spout nonsense and not be called on it?
No one is saying his views should be censored. People here are questioning why they are given such respect.
As I suggested earlier, his views are as substantiated as those of an astrologer. Many people look to their daily horoscope for guidance during the day. Many people feel comforted by the assurance that the daily horoscope brings to their lives.
The astrologer is not given a prominent spot on the morning news programme. The astrologer's views are not given the weighty respect afforded the cardinal.The astrologer's views are as substantiated by evidence as are the cardinal's.

Fides et Ratio:

shouldn't he be given a public forum to respond to the man who was given a public forum to criticise his beliefs?

Yes and he should be subject to criticism of his beliefs, as Paula has stated.
However, once it has been demonstrated again and again that claims are being made which have no evidence whatsoever to back them up, we may begin to question whether or not he should be given a forum to speak publically.
I mean you might have an astrologer on a national radio program for a bit of fun but not to be taken seriously.

Goldy, Rev. Dark, raindouglas, BE, Quine, and everyone else who is arguing with txpiper about the Flood.
You are arguing about the Flood.

The Flood.

The Flood and Noah's Ark.

Seriously, step back for a moment.

Who do you need to convince? Do you think that anyone with an ounce of critical thinking skills would not see the story of Noah's Ark as just plain silly?
Anyone who believes this has to make such mental contortions that it becomes clear that it is not reason that it driving the person.
Do you really think there is any evidence that would convince someone who has decided that the story of Noah's Ark is real, that it is not?
The fucking Flood!?

You know you may be able to convince someone that they don't have to believe in the literal truth of the Bible to believe in God. Maybe that's it.
txpiper, look at it as a metaphor, okay?
The evidence is not on your side. Francis Collins and the Pope and a lot of other believers in God do not take the Bible as literal. That is just silly. You can still believe in God; just not literally.

Comment #177046 by Frankus1122 on May 8, 2008 at 1:50 pm

Richard, I would do the show, but unlike AllanW's suggestion, I would answer specific points made by the Archbisop. I am aware that politicians take a question asked and manipulate it to make whatever point they wish. This infuriates me.

Address the points made by the Archbisop directly.

You cannot use reason and logic to say that faith is beyond reason and logic and that therefore it is something in which we should put our trust.
There is a great deal of fuzzy thinking that needs to be brought into the light.
If there is no good reason to believe something then the obvious answer is not to believe it.
Morality, good works, social cohesion can all be seen as pluses for religion in some circumstances (if you ignore a lot of bad stuff). However, it does not make God any more believable. This is a point that needs to be made.

I say take every opportunity to get the truth out there.

Comment #176974 by Frankus1122 on May 8, 2008 at 12:08 pm

Okay.
I just got back from viewing all the projects.
I am in a bit of a better mood.
Two guys built a bicycle that will purify water. The idea is that you go to a water source a few kilometers from where you live and fill up the container on the front of the bike. As you pedal back home the water is pumped through a filtration device and fills up a container on the back of the bike.
Two more of my girls did a project on colour degradation. They wanted to determine which colour will fade the fastest under which light source. They had a log book that was 125 pages long. They tested the colour degradation by scanning the coloured paper and measuring its colour value using Photoshop every 2 hours for 10 days.
If you want to keep the colour of artwork or photographs don't expose them to a lot of sunlight; especially if the art predominantly black or blue. Although this is something that we sort of know already, these girls now have some hard statisical data as to the rate of colour degradation for particular coloured papers under specific light sources.

I am sort of happy now.
There is some hope.

Comment #176951 by Frankus1122 on May 8, 2008 at 11:31 am

I'm guessing they didn't do it either of those ways though, did they?

Nope.

They provided a list (Christianity, Buddhism, Hindism, Scientology, and Islam) and then asked the question.
Then they provided 'facts' about each religion, including what they believed was true (humans are sinful -just look at the world today) and false (to their credit the virgin birth was called into question). Then they asked the question again. The sample size was about 20 people.
Uncomfortably for them, Buddhism was found to have the slight edge over Christianity.

Stein is doing nothing less than helping turn a generation of American youth away from science.

He is not alone.
I do not teach science but my students brought in their science fair projects today. Two very religious girls brought in their 'science' project. What was their 'scientific' problem to solve?

Which religion is the most believable?

I am not sure if they are antithetical toward science or perhaps just lazy.
I have been shaking my head all day about this.

imagine the outcry there would have been if he had depicted Jesus as a peadophile raping altar boys!

Outcry - yes.
Burning of embassies and over a hundred dead -no.

This sort of pathetic anti-religious propaganda is no better than pro-religious propaganda - they both fail to offer humanity anything useful.

Speaking out against dangerous nuttiness in an attempt to eliminate it does offer something useful to humanity. It is a call for people to break the bonds of faith when that faith leads them to behave in a manner counter to all sense and rationality.

About the Spirit:

but no religion adequately describes it and all modern religions have been corrupted.

And yet all religions claim to know the absolute truth of God. When your faith in things unknowable trumps common sense and scientific facts you will have problems. We live in a world in which there is no evidence of any god whatsoever. To insert a god into the picture and claim to know what the imagined being wants leaves the door wide open for anything to enter. Nothing can be crazy or unsound or unreasonable because you have inserted something that is outside the realm of reason.
To have faith is to believe something without evidence. Therefore anything can be believed.
You say all modern religions are corrupted. How do you come to this knowledge? Did the Spirit tell you? Do you 'feel' it?
I think the Spirit told the Pope he is doing a great job. I think the Spirit makes the imams feel all warm and toasty when they issue death sentences on guys who draw cartoons.
I think it is all made up.
I think Sam Harris is saying the same thing.
We have to stop letting people make things up out of nothing and forcing other people, through violence and intimidation and coersion, to adhere to the same beliefs or 'respect' them.

Regarding the ghosts and daemons that haunted your mind when you were a child: Yes. I had similar fears. I am an adult now and I know there is nothing to be afraid of.
Imagine that someone like David Robertson or the Pope, people who actually believe in the reality of the Devil, still harbour the fears of childhood.
They have their faith to protect them from non-existent beings whereas we have simply outgrown such foolish notions.
I don't mean to sound all superior but thinking about these men in this light does make me feel ..., I don't know, more mature (?).
I understand the fears of childhood. My 6 year old son will not go downstairs by himself. I tell him that monsters do not exist. He tells me that monsters do not exist. He still won't go into the basement by himself.

What is the difference between the Pope and my 6 year old son in this regard?

We are witnessing the foolishness of childhood. Some have not outgrown this.

Then the Exorcist came out and I was scared beyond measure of dark places.

He had continually refused blood transfusions that would have saved his life after a simple dental procedure to remove teeth went wrong.

All the JW blood transfusion refusal is because of some Biblical passage, correct?
Because of something that was written millenium ago by some guys in the desert, people are refusing life saving blood transfusions. Once you take that first step off the reason boat you really are subject to all sorts of absurdities.
It is interesting that even the instinct for self preservation can be overcome by indoctrination.
Of course the Catholics (following the one true religion) are not prone to such nonsense. They believe in evolution and transubstantiation. For Catholics, the Eucharist is the literal body and blood of Christ. Only it still looks like bread and wine. Why? Not exactly sure. It could be to test the faith of the faithful.
Or it could be because the Holy Spirit did not actually come down from heaven to do his magic and what the priest holds up is still bread and wine.
I wonder which is actually true?
I suppose that depends if I have left the reason boat or not.

Sorry if this seems off topic a bit. I am musing on a comment by fides-et-ratio from another thread. He said that only the most ridiculous religious topics are dealt with. He claimed there are far more rational religious sects.

I'll agree that the above comic is absurd beyond measure. It is disappointing that this is what we are forced to argue against. It is very rare indeed that anything more worthy comes this way.

In fact the only sects seeming to be gaining numbers are the evangelicals (http://www.inspiremagazine.org.uk/news.aspx?action=view&id=2306), and these are the ones that are more likely to reject science and specifically evolution. However it should also be noted what demographic these churches serve.

What seems to be happening is that "reasonable" religion is becoming a spent force. What we will have to face is the rump lunatic fringe, supported by people like Peter Vardy and similar exports from the US.
