The Big Bang is a uniquely atheist position.
Evolutionists love to talk about who believes what instead of engaging over the evidence.

...Collins writes about the fine tuned universe, atheists argue against it.
Evolutionists love the genetic fallacy.
STRAWMAN ( and moving goalposts)Daedalean's_Sun said:Strange then that the Big Bang was first proposed by a theist, isn't it?6days said:Ahhhh....Very good DS! You are correct. That is what the 'fine tuned' debate is all about.
That explains why when a scientist such as Collins writes about the fine tuned universe, atheists argue against it.
DS, you are passionate about defending your beliefs...Too bad you aren't passionate about logic.
I'm not the only one who has pointed out your use of illogical fallacy arguments. Another example here...
Has anyone said a theist can't believe in the Big Bang?
You seem to insist on using all of them. :idunno:And yet your and Stripes analysis of what fallacy I'm supposedly committing seems to be all over the place.
You've implied numerous times that the Big bang is the domain of atheists. The fact that you apparently believe fine-tuning refutes the Big Bang, tells me that you think it a uniquely atheist position.
You seem to insist on using all of them. :idunno:
Evolutionists love arguing against what they think their opponent should say.
DS...you seem to have no sense of logic. Even when we point out your fallacy strawmans, you persist. You are trying to beat up on an argument that no one has made - other than yourself. So, once again....Daedalean's_Sun said:I'm arguing what has already been said, naàmely the Fine Tuning argument, which is in no uncertain terms an argument for the existence of God. The subtext here is that the Big Bang is the domain of atheists, and to prove God is to disprove the Big Bang.
DS...you seem to have no sense of logic.
Even when we point out your fallacy strawmans, you persist.
YES - The ' fine tuning' of the universe is an argument, or evidence, for the existence of God.
NO - The BB is not the "domain of atheists". Many theists believe that model including most Muslims. However, they also believe that the Creator was involved and designed this planet for humans.
Evolutionists love to talk about implications. Anything but a rational discussion of the topic at hand.That you are unwilling to acknowledge the implications of your argument does not make mine a strawman.
Evolutionists love straw men. They cannot resist.If both of these premises were true, then it does not follow that Fine Tuning refutes the Big Bang.
6D just got finished clearly declaring that there are theists who hold to the Big Bang and he previously agreed with you that the fine tuning argument was a theological point.So either you actually were insisting that the Big Bang is the position of Atheists, or your previous arguments were erroneous. I await your response.

As said before....you have a problem with logic... I think you have even lost track of what point you are trying to make?Daedalean's_Sun said:This backpedaling would probably be more successful if there wasn't a record of everything that was said.
The fine tuned argument* is evidence of the Creator.
There are some theists who believe in the big bang, but still believe we live in a fine tuned universe.
There are some theists who don't agree with the Big Bang.
Which again, if this were true then it does not follow that fine tuning refutes the Big Bang. So either you actually were insisting that the Big Bang is the position of Atheists, or your previous arguments were erroneous.
You are going from strawman arguments to outright dishonesty.Daedalean's_Sun said:Which again, if this were true then it does not follow that fine tuning refutes the Big Bang.

I'm unaware of anyone saying 'fine tuning' refutes the Big Bang. You are so anxious to protect your beliefs, that evidence and truth don't matter to you.
Jefferson did say that fine tuning is one of many evidences against the Big Bang. I have said theists believe 'fine tuning' is evidence of our Creator.
Are you able to look at the evidence of find tuning and entertain the idea that a "super intellect" may be responsible? Are you willing to follow the evidence to the Creator God of the Bible?
Fortunately most scientists are curious about WHY things are a certain way. If our universe appears designed...maybe it was designed.Jukia said:you can look at the universe and it may seem fine tuned. But since it is the only one we have I dont see that as evidence for your Biblical deity. It is simply the universe we have.
