The best arguments atheists and religionists have been able to muster

I missed this one, so you've actually posted four times, none of which answer a very simple question:
Blatant lie.
Are you saying that, without the atmosphere, the high and low temperatures on Earth would be identical to what they are now?
RQAA
Before you falsely claim I'm pivoting, if you acknowledge that high and low temps would be different if the Earth had no atmosphere, then you would be acknowledging that atmospheric gases DO impact temperature on Earth. For obvious reasons, you don't want to admit that....so you avoid and avoid and avoid.
Blatant lie. RQAA.
 
@Into the Night @IBDaMann

I will make this easy. When either / both of you are ready to move forward, just answer the two questions below. Yes, I mean actually answer the questions, not pretend to answer the questions, and then claim you did.

  1. Does the Earth's atmosphere impact high and low temperatures on Earth?
  2. How does the atmosphere impact high and low temperatures on Earth?
Bump :rolleyes:
 
@ZenMode,

I will make this easy. When you are ready to move forward, just answer the two questions below. Yes, I mean actually answer the questions, not pretend that you have just thought of an irrelevant question that must somehow be answered and this topic derailed before you will admit that you have no counterargument.

  1. If Earth's atmosphere were to vanish, would Earth's average global equilibrium temperature change any?
  2. Under what circumstances does the Stefan-Boltzmann law's requirement that a body's radiance and temperature move in the same direction, somehow become false and cause earth's temperature to increase while earth's radiance decreases?


I'd like to add some evidence. God promised to never flood the earth again, and he gave us rainbows as an ongoing sign of His promise, and look, there are obviously still rainbows, and that's how I know that "sea level rise" is totally bunk and will never be flooding anything.
Bump :rolleyes:
 
What if there is no such thing as a Holy Spirit?
Then you are on your own. Good luck!
Melchizedek-Files.com is a fraud if they published a story that says definitively that such a being DOES EXIST...when it is just a blind guess about the reality. (In reality, Melchizedek-Files.com is just a web site run by a guy who thinks he is Michael the Archangel. )
I suggest you learn what 'reality' means and how it's defined.

His reality is different from yours (obviously). There is no such thing as a Universal Reality.
Margot, if you find contentment in your blind guess that there is a GOD and that the GOD is a trinity and that a part of the trinity has "chosen" you and this "completely unreligious South Toledo guy" for some special conversion...I am delighted for you and the guy. But if you try to sell it as fact here...you are in for more backlash than you can handle.
Learn what 'fact' means as well. 'Fact' does NOT mean Universal Truth or 'proof'.

A fact is simply an assumed predicate. They are not bought and sold.

This is why I don't think the apostles Peter, James, Paul, Andrew would have willing faced arrest and execution just for a tale they conspired to fabricate one evening while drinking wine in a tavern.

Their belief that they saw Jesus after his crucifixion seems like it must have been a consequence of one of the following reasons:

Mass hallucinations
They were all mentally ill
A genuine miracle occurred
Jesus never died on the cross and recovered temporarily from mortal injury
You missed one, Sybil. It could also mean that Jesus did die on the cross, and was resurrected, and is still living today, and will go on living forever.
 
As it is for everyone. One way or another we all end up dead. :thup:

FWIW, when I was a junior in HS, I had an NDE. This is a few months to a year after my religious intervention. Although the result wasn't immediate, the result was that I 1) began a spiritual journey and 2) was more likely to take risks such as downhill skiing, flying, "try anything once" sort of attitude.

People who live in fear, such as most JPP MAGAts, is not a good way to live.

"I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living or get busy dying." - Andy, The Shawshank Redemption

One day I'm gonna die
If something's gonna kill me, might as well be
What makes me feel alive
MAGA isn't a person, Sybil. You DO live in fear.
 
You are getting very weird, Margot.

One: Ask your Holy Spirit for some help with that.

Two: Why don't you choose a different avatar. Margot Frank should not be used for your kind of nonsense.
Apparently you don't know that The Holy Spirit is freely available to you!
Who would you suggest to replace Margot! ?
 
Where have I ever suggested otherwise???



There may be no YHWH. There may be no Holy Spirit.



All English words...most spelled correctly.

But they make no sense.

If this is too much stress for you...you might consider posting on something different. Maybe some comic book characters.
Best part of posting exactly what happened ,is you have done your best whether the reader agrees or not.

Close ,The Genesis of Melchizedek-Files.com
Is Dead Sea Scrolls 11 Q 13 that suggests
Michael the Archangel holds the office of Melchizedek!
How would someone named Michael claim he was Michael!
The Holy Spirit first told Mason about Michael the Archangel and Melchizedek,two people Mason never heard of! Till sent to the Books!
Where he finds both in the Bible and the connection with The Dead Sea Scroll 11 Q 13.
When Mason questioned the Holy Spirit how he was involved in all this! Michael Mason was told!
"What day is Michaelmas on"?
And one the only organized religion paper Mason has is his Baptism paper.
With two dates 10/11/49 birthday also
" Old Michaelmas"
And the other date 11/8/49
Michaelmas in Orthodox Christianity!
