Legislated is a good word here.
Laws are legislated.
Human "laws" are "legislated".
The "laws" of nature are descriptions of physical realities. They aren't "legislated". It's a different use of the English word "law".
You are playing with words.

Of course you are not interested, considering your position.
Originally posted by FMFWe're way beyond that now.
You said something about the word "supernatural" being a "quip" that misrepresented Jesus. In fact "supernatural" things are part of the very essence of everything you believe. So the "quip" riff was a half baked weak little angle you tried.
I said change the word QUIP to something else if you want.
We're beyond that.
Originally posted by sonshipI don't know. As I have said many times, if a creator God reveals Himself to me, then maybe I will then "commit". But just I don't know. As far as I am concerned neither do you.
What's more likely to you ?
Which would you sooner adopt as a reasonable position?
No position is always the easiest choice to defend.
The "reasonable position" is for me to accept and admit that I do not know.
Originally posted by sonshipNo. You haven't explained your peculiar riff yet.

We're beyond that.
You haven't explained this:
""Beef?" "Objection?"
"Major obstacle?"
"Unsurmountable barrier ?"
" Total showstopper to believing the Bible?"

Ok we disagree here.π
No E.T. 's will come before then.

Okay, FMF, Let's say I am monstrously vain.
Regardless, do you have something better than the Son of God and His teaching ?
Don't let my pride get in your way.
Contribute something positive here.
Don't be daft.

Originally posted by karoly aczelI doubt that is the reason why we dont meet aliens... your reason sounds like science fiction. The reason is that communication is simply beyond our ability, and theirs as well, at this time. Time will change that.
