Is this one of the new bots spamming people with different interest groups? A Christ GPT?
So the book tells you what to believe, including to believe in the book.
Any questions, the book is the answer.
Is there any reason to believe in this book? Yes, the book tells me to believe in the book.
Where do you get your beliefs? The book.
But humans wrote the book. The Book tells me to believe in the book.
Really?
You don't see anything circular in this?
You can literally make up anything and use this exact same logic to justify it. This is the basis of every religion. Just make it up, and it is self justifying. The religion tells you what to believe including why the source of the religion makes it the one religion.
- nickpsecurity 2y agoYou ignored most of my logical points, called me a GPT, and set up a strawman (believe a book cuz the book says). I don’t believe you’re a bot because many people reply that way to Christians. Christ predicted it, too. Have a blessed day.
- FrustratedMonky 2y agoYou are missing the point, that all of your points come from that book. What is the point of arguing point by point from the book if they are all self referential. There is no argument, if you believe in the book, then your points make sense to you. If someone doesn't believe in the book, then all of the other points are based on nothing. You can't argue with someone's beliefs. If you believe the sun revolves around the earth, and all you can see is the sunrise and sunset, how do I argue with you. You'll believe what you want. People reply this way "many people reply that way to Christians. Christ predicted it, too." Yes of course. Because people thinking with logic can come to these same conclusions, and respond this same way. I am sure you have heard this before. And, Christ predicted it? I'm sure he did. A lot of religious leaders say others will respond this way. It is a common trope to keep cult members in line, "ignore the infidels, they will question your true faith, they will cloud your mind with logic, but ours is beyond logic". Sorry. I've been down all of these arguments. I've stopped trying to argue with the true believers. Logic isn't going to win any battles with someone living in a dream world.
