I must enjoy this as I'm getting drawn back into your idiocy.
*MY* idiocy? I'm not the person that can't tell nouns from verbs. I know 3rd graders that can do that.
I don't believe what atheists believe about the origin of life.
You don't know what you believe. You simultaneously believe that life always existed and that life came from non-life.
And no I shouldn't need to establish that life had a beginning when every person here believes that it did. Including you.
You must've gotten that from my repeated insistance that I don't believe life had a beginning. It seems you are insistent on believing the opposite of what is plainly true.
Yes with the assumption that there was a time that life did not exist.
Yes, if we assume there was a time life did not exist, then its totally reasonable to believe that there was a time life did not exist. Is that how your thinking actually works?
It had nothing whatsoever to do with a claim about life always existing or not existing.
How can you possibly assert that an "assumption that there was a time that life did not exist" "had nothing whatsoever to do with a claim about life always existing or not existing." Are you fucking serious?
The statement makes no sense if life has always existed.
The statement makes no sense because there is no logical contradiction with an infinite regress, of which the negative integers are an example.
If life did not exist then my statement is perfectly true.
No, it is still bad reasoning. Your problem is that you did not understand that I was attacking your argument, not necessarily your conclusion. You immediately projected a position on to me that I do not hold and then tried to argue with me about it.
If life has always existed then it is absolutely meaningless.
No, it's bad reasoning, regardless of the truth of the conclusion.
No, you're being stupid again.
That falls a little flat, coming from you.
