    I haven't been following this latest "sub" argument. What was the claim, that since the founders mentioned and possibly believed in a creator, therefore there is a creator?

  2. What do you know about "written drafts" or what the founders intended? You didn't even know the word "God" is in the very first sentence of the final version of the Declaration of Independence. :D

    1. This is the beginning of the Declaration of Independence:

    "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."


    2. This the end of the new replacement Stu's Declaration of Ignorance:

    Well it's not really an argument so much as the usual thing where Et's newly delivered religiously conjoined twins draw some rather predictable conclusions that they can't justify or even be rational about.

    One is obviously a great believer in the circular argument works because circular argument works because..." routine by repeatedly re-posting the same lines from the Declaration of Independence.
    The other can do little more that post silly pictures in trying to get some time with the one braincell they share.

    Still it all passes a few quiet minutes now and then :)

    I see you've dug out your selfie to photoshop again. You must be joined at the ass otherwise Jem would also be in the frame.

    "Nature's God" is not the word "God" like "their Creator" is not the word "Creator" or the word "God"


    Do you even know what it is you're ranting about anymore. :p

    Stu is showing us troll playbook lesson # 4... When a troll is caught looking truly ignorant, adopt a strawman. Then change the contruction of the sentence and change the subject over a series of posts. Here is the example... on page 4:

    "Stu is not really the full of shit Stu because a stu being a liquid could never be a solid shit."

    I'll admit to not following this argument all that closely, but this statement has me completely baffled. :confused:
