My idea of Hell.

Spending eternity on your knees, bum in the air, facing a mythical being & kissing the ground. Then running around with your hands in the air singing, "F'reeze a jolly good fellow."

I’m sorry, Craig Minns, but I don’t think they are.

<<… what I "seem" to do in your mind and what I "say" on paper, "seem" to be at odds.>>

And I don’t think you could give an example of what you’re referring to either.

You have placed quotation marks around the word “seem”, which suggests that I used the word often enough for you to conclude that any further discussion is useless due to an alleged inability on my behalf to understand where you’re coming from, or a penchant for putting words in your mouth. Yet I only used the word once in all my responses to you, and as an invitation for you to clarify what you’ve said at that. Any request on my behalf for your clarification is accompanied by a good explanation of why what you’ve said is vague.

I may have said some things that were “at odds” with what you meant to say, but I don’t think I have said anything that is “at odds” with what you have written.

Your post to Luciferase does nothing to suggest that we have a communication problem here either. Take this for example…

<<My position is simply that the religious explanation satisfies a particular human need to explain things which is shared by science. I am prepared to accept that somebody else's explanation may use different words for concepts that we share and try to fit my own grasp of their meaning to their own usage.>>

This is perfectly in line with my responses to you regarding your incorrect application of the concept of “faith” when referring to the hypotheses and hypothesising of scientists; my pointing out to you that atheism isn’t an “activity”; my reminding you that theists don't investigate their beliefs honestly or reliably like scientists investigate an hypothesis; and my request for you to explain how the weirdness of QM is in any way similar to, or as unexplainable as, religious experiences.

Continued…
