Is the Bible Literally True? No, of Course Not!

You cannot prove a negative using positive predicates. That forms a negative proof fallacy (Example: You draw two marbles from a bag of marbles. They are both green. Therefore, the next marble cannot be any other color than green.).

You cannot require or force one to prove a negative using positive predicates either. That forms the attempted force of negative proof fallacy (Example: guilty until proven innocent; or using the above example, prove the next marble won't be green.).

You can only prove a negative using negative predicates (Example: If you check the marbles in a bag of marbles, and find no green marbles, allowing someone who doesn't know what marbles are in the bag to a draw marble from the bag cannot result in a green marble.)

Man, you just bring the brain dead to every topic.,

If i say 'Trump never said X' and you say 'yes he did', then only you can prove Trump said 'X' by quoting it. I cannot quote anything that proves Trump did not say 'X'.

The burden of proof is on you, since you say the bible does say it.

You CANNOT prove someone never said something. You would have to quote the entire life's statements and show it was not said and since that is impossible you CANNOT prove someone never said anything.

You can only prove they did say something by quoting it.

For instance you prove now i have never in my life said out loud the word 'Yakuda'. Go.


Do you see how stupid you always end up being in these discussions Yakuda? Do you get tired of being schooled.
