@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Yup, youre right. Time started with that tweet. Love the neat rephrasing and slight strawmanning. Also almost like it was rage bait due to theists love to tell atheists non-belief is a claim . . . Night!
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Nope, just because u love being pedantic for the sake of being pedantic. Maybe that's because doing so makes u feel smart or that u won part of the argument, dont know. But its a popular tool of apologetics used to shift the burden of proof whether u use it that way or not. Night
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Context. Do u think atheists ever bring it up not in ultimate response to being told by theists many times over that their non-belief is a claim? Sometimes implying, sometimes outright saying, that means an atheist needs to support non-belief the same as belief or is a hypocrite?
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats And I just pointed out that you did and call bullshit on why you claim, at least most, theists do it. Or at least why you do it I guess. No one is making continue to converse except you probably know there is truth in what I am saying and you need to rationalize.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Lol. It never had to devolve. You are pitching your pedantry as a solution to a problem that doesnt need to exist. The understanding is that a "claim" of non-belief is nothing like a claim about a God being real so pointing out theyre both claims doesnt help at all.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Since claiming non-belief is a claim is a deflection meant to derail the conversation id say not arguing about it. Exactly what I said the last time. The OP bringing it up is kind of the issue and exactly my point as to why theists do this. Its old apologetics To derail the convo
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats I already said. It doesnt matter if his non-belief is a claim or not. Also why its funny you keep trying to get me to "defend" his statement. So NOT arguing over whether it technically qualifies as a claim would be good. Because its irrelevant. Unless you can tell me why it is.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Lol. U do love being a pedantic ass while ignoring the greater context of why he is saying what hes saying. But its what ur narrative demands. So continue I guess
What has been accomplished to futher the conversation? What is the next step if he agrees his non-belief is a claim?
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Is that what I think? Ok. Whatever you need to tell yourself. And yes, accuracy beyond the point of having any effect, an irrelevant level of accuracy for accuracys sake is indeed pedantry. Especially when used as a deflection from ones own claims. Have a good one.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats And he said that pro-actively, without anyone ever telling him his non-belief was a claim? Sure. Because context and common sense dont matter I guess. Lol.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats You not understanding my point actually makes sense. Have a good one owning those atheists on irrelevant word defintions with no implications or ulterior motives what so ever. Just protecting the English language from the evils of not being technically correct! Lol.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats So for the love of being a pedantic ass? That's it? If being pedantic with an atheist over an irrelevant issue that doesnt matter in the context of the conversation is what you need to feel better about yourself far be it from me to stop you. Have a good night.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats Ur the 1 who hates context & hates hearing that they hate it. Bad combo.
Im not him & dont care to defend something I didnt say. I only question ur actions, statements, & the motivations behind them. Again, what is accomplished if an atheist agrees their non-belief is a claim?
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats He proactively declared his non-belief to be a claim apropos of nothing, in a vacuum? Lol.Sure
Its still irrelevant. He is being the way he is, literally, because of the implication theists use when saying his non-belief is a claim. Whether it technically is or not is irrelevant
@LNeuhoff55282@RacoonPolitical@benitokatolik Whats the context of killing innocent babies and children of egypt? Sins of the father? A concept the guy doing the killing made up? That they'd grow up to be evil Egyptian? Hes a toxic, genocidal, baby killing psychopath.
@LNeuhoff55282@RacoonPolitical@benitokatolik Thats all in there. But its ok because God said anything he does is defacto moral. Even killing people because of a problem he knew about at the dawn of time. Neat trick. Like giving yourself a pardon.
@Vaulty_22@Freedom_man1234@MartinTweats I didnt defend a statement. I criticized ur actions & questioned their motivations. But whatever story u need 2 tell yourself I guess
Its fun how this guy must be taken literal & context doesnt matter. But the quote tweet, yeah, u know what he meant. Literally doest matter there
