The Abrahamic God is supported by Scientific Proof

Con fails to show how the actual Hebrew means 24-hour days. "Evening and morning" is understood by Semitic speakers as figurative (1). "The opponent states that I cannot proclaim that he exists, or trees exist, or that this website exists via science. Albeit I cannot proclaim that my opponent exists, I could use physics to prove that trees exist; I could use computer science to prove that this website exists. And this is all I ask of the opponent to do with God." My counter-argument is that science simply assumes the existence of things, not to prove whether they exist or not. Science is about HOW the universe works, not WHAT the nature of it's existence is which is up to philosophy. Secondly, while no direct evidence for God has been found, we can make an indirect inference. For example, Dark Matter cannot be seen, but we can detect it by the gravitational forces it emits in the universe. Same with God, which God exists? The theistic God? The hindu god? Simply by observation alone, we cannot determine which God exists. For that very reason, if the Bible is entirely accurate supernaturally, we can infer his existence. "Throughout his argument, the opponent commits a fallacy called anecdotal evidence" I did not use anecdotal evidence because i didn't expect that to be used as scientific evidence, simply to demonstrate why this experience is quite different from simply "feeling" the existence of something. My opponent fails to disprove the existence of a ghost dog, but simply provides an alternative explanation for it. According to Wikipedia, Noah's flood happened in Mesopotamia. What evidence is there to connect this grand Canyon with Noah's flood? My opponent appears to still assume the flood is global. "The opponent claims that the theory of Agent Detection does not explain God. However, Agent Detection requires human to find design in the chaotic orders that the world was created in. For example, Agent Detection (much like Fundamental Attribute Error) will lead men to believe in irrational claims, like "God" saved me in this instance. Agent Detection is universally described as a "survival tool" for humans, as it is a solution to the problem of mortality." Like i said, agent detection can be applied to anything: spirits, monsters, made up humans, etc. It doesn't follow to assume that the Abrahamic God has been disproven by this reasoning alone or otherwise it is circular.

The Abrahamic God is supported by Scientific Proof

While my opponent claims that the Bible is irrational and uses different views to attack the Bible with, he fails to actually attack the meaning of the word yom or day in Hebrew. 1st - The Hebrew word for "day" can last from a few seconds to millions of years (1). Therefore the big bang is still consistent with Scripture. 2nd - Linguistic evidence shows that Noah's flood was not global, but local (2). Therefore, not all the animals in the globe were taken. A local flood is entirely plausible. My opponent commits a fallacy: the ability to create or imagine something doesn't imply that everything is made up. Based on experience, God's existence was not dependent on my ability to make it up, he simply acted upon my life. If someone speaks to you and interacts with you, do you simply reject their existence and they will "magically" go away? No, they exist and that's the reality of it. If i make up a monster, will it suddenly come to life and interact with you? No because it's a product of my imagination. God independently exists because i have experienced him personally. Once again, the Bible doesn't say that everything came about spontaneously. God doesn't have to follow natural laws if he created them himself. As i've stated before, in Hebrew, a day is not confined only to a 24-hour period. The Bible states that God was before everything else came into existence, so essentially there was something before everything. If God made the natural laws we know now, who are we to say how they work? My opponent's conclusion is false and misguided. As i have stated in my rebuttals, the Bible is scientifically accurate. No other religion has the same level of accuracy as it's claims about the natural world. Sources: 1. Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, I:371. 2. Davis A.

Since my Adversary has no round next round. I will keep this pretty short. This is about who is the best artist all around. Lets just do a brief comparison(a)Both have good rap skills (b)Both have came from nothing(c)Both are independent. They have some similarities as well. The issue is when you compare lyrics and vocals. I think the weekend has a drastic edge in this. I am going to post a comparison video above. This isWicked GamesVsCoca Butter KissesI challenge you to listen to both videos and judge the lyrics on both songs and then the vocals. It will become apparent the weeknd shines in comparison. Some other LyricsThis part of his song the morning" [Verse 2]Push it to the limitPush it through the painI push it for the pleasure like a virgin to the gameA virgin to that moneyA virgin to the fameSo this my only chanceAnd when I'm over only pray that I flow from the bottomCloser to the topThe higher that I climbThe harder I'mma dropThese pussie azz niggahs tryna hold on to their creditSo I tell them use a debitWatch they image start to lessenI warn them like discretionWhy these niggas testing?Always fuckin twistedWhy these niggahs testing?Sht that I got them on straight bar hoppingTo the music of the ambianceGet sht poppingZombies of the nightNiggas ain't talking if they hyping to the crew get it in like pocketsDowntown lovingWhen the moon comingOnly place to find baseheads and hot women" [1]ConclusionI think when you compare both of these artist, both are talented in their own right. The thing is the weeknd is a better vocal artist with better lyrics. That is what this is all about. [1] http://rapgenius.com...http://www.youtube.com...http://www.youtube.com...

If post formatting was one of the things people could vote on, you'd get that point every time xP.Anyways, I chose Chance because he's quite honestly a poetic genius. His voice is a bit jarring for some people, but I think that the amount of emotion he's able to convey is astounding.Chance first skyrocketed to acclaim after he recieved a ten day suspension in his senior year of highschool, releasing a mixed tape aptly titled "10 Day." as with his new mixed tape, it's completely free, and can be downloaded here:http://www.datpiff.com... The first song, 14,400 minutes is both musically interesting, something uncommon in Hip Hop as a genre, catchy, and extremely well written. He's irreverent, but intelligently so, pointing out the irony of a system that perpetuates the very issues that it's plagued with.http://www.youtube.com...However, it is his new mixed tape, Acid Rap, where the twenty year old's talent really shines. It can be downloaded here:http://www.datpiff.com...One of the first songs, "Pusha Man," starts out energetic, but soon transitions over a twenty second pause to a hidden song, "Paranoia." This song opens with a hook that's nothing if not resigned, as if there's nothing one can do about the issue being adressed.http://www.youtube.com..."I've been riding around with my blunt on my lipsWith the sun in my eyes and my gun on my hipParanoia on my mind, got my mind on the fritzBut a lot of niggas dyin', so my 9 with the shits"The song itself is about Chicago and how everyone claims to care about how dangerous and crime ridden it is, but nobody ever does anything about it. It also features some of his best lyric writing, with one of my favorite lines:"Move to the neighborhood, I bet they don't stay for good, watchSomebody'll steal daddy's rollie, and call it the neighborhood watchPray for a safer hood when my paper good, watchCaptain save the hood, hood savior, baby boy, still get ID'd for swishersMama still wash my clothes, still with Save Money militiaI'm a still watch my brosTrapped in the middle of the map, with a little bitty rockAnd a little bit of rapThat with a literary knack and a little shitty MacAnd like literally jack"Moving on, my personal favorite song, "Cocoa Butter Kisses," is laden with genuine emotion and nostalgia. It details how Chance has become something that his mother hates, but that he misses the uncomplicated love that they used to share."Cigarettes on cigarettes, my mama think I stankI got burn holes in my hoodies, all my homies think it's dankI miss my cocoa butter kisses, I miss my cocoa butter kisses"http://www.youtube.com...This song is so excellent that my mother, who generally hates Hip Hop as a genre, fell in love with it and the rest of his music. I recognize he might not be for those who are more into mainstream music, but I can't get enough.

yeah you could have given a reason last round. I mentioned you could start the following round :)Well I am going with the Weeknd. This guy has kind of blown up this past year but with great reason. He has put out some hits that are just amazing. One of which is "The wicked games". After the release of this song people starting paying attention to him"He first caught people’s attention with a song called “Wicked Games,” above, posted to his Tumblr and shared on Drake’s Octobers Very Own blog. The song turned out not to be a Chris Isaak cover, but rather a pained and aggressiveness grind that finds him looking for “what he needs” in a strip club. His voice was otherworldly, and the song earned him endearment from fans of R&B’s other rouge figures, like Frank Ocean, the XX, How to Dress Well and Miguel."[1]He has some other noticeable ones as well such as "pretty"His voice is dynamic and the music video to this is amazing. You will see the link above for this video. NOTE : THIS IS EXPLICIT, AND CONTAINS ADULT CONTENT. DO NOT CLICK THIS OR SIGN IN UNLESS YOU ARE OVER 18.The video was mind blowing. It had a back story to it that matched and went along with his voice. It left me breathlessAll of his songs have a gloomy feel to them, with a very chill beat. Most of it portrays him trying to find loves in place he won't find it such as girls and drugs. He puts himself on a quest to be happy in alot of them, and goes everywhere to find it. He also refused to sign a deal with young money. He wanted to remain independent. Drake endorses him and he fought his way up, but he turned a deal down from them to be a part of the group. " HSK Exclusive - He may be known as The Weeknd, but Drake’s fellow Toronto-based artist is proving to not be a weak man. Know why? Because even though the Canadian R&B recording artist – whose real name is Abel Tesfaye – is endorsed by Drake, sources say he recently turned down a recording deal offered up by Drake and YMCMB Records. "[2]ConclusionThis guy has some great songs that are chill, relaxing, and just vocally amazing. He came out of no where and refuses to sell out. That deserves respect.

Screw them hardcore placard idioms. Believe me, there is a place in heaven for all. Not absolutely sure of that but hey existence is just that exist to be as one with each other within one's own self. Peace be with you and I apologize for every insult that I have insinuated towards you. I will still be a gay Christian. But not with you.

Have you not realised yet that this is what I do as to leave this place hopefully a little better then I found it before I die. https://sites.google.com... Why would anyone bother to do that as of course whoever has the most toys wins in this fiasco of inconsideration that generation after generation is convinced to lead with there left foot instead of there right? Screew everyone else and what's in it for me is all I ever hear from the majority. But hey lots of money fixes all problems even death and acts of war is glorified without even asking the returned servicemen that admit being professional murders. So lets all fight for peace and freedom shall we? From who for what for why for just for the sake of it resources religion? and of course, lets the fight for atheists to sit higher on their fence of excuses with Richard Dawkins that is now a "Richard Dawkins: I am a secular Christian". oops sorry, the d#ck head dorky millionaire from selling bullsh#t to fertilise the next generation grey, gray matter to believe in Charles Darwins parasitic wasp and don't forget to reinforce the dark side with the founding atheist club. http://www.bbc.co.uk... Have you learnt anything here today and you going to go away and consider what was just pointed out to you. Because it's not all about you and me it's all about us the human race that continually forgets to put an e on the end of human. Peace be with you.

What would I expect from a 19-year-old atheist fence sitter? Go away and play elsewhere and be as a child as in my day if you hadn't got your sh#t together by the age of 30 you never did. So I will give it a lenience of 10 years as today there are many more pits falls. So that is 40. You are communicating with a 52-year-old if you haven't noticed. Show some respect and you will get it back. If you are a know all know nothing with all the answers at 19 then just try me. A troll is most likely yourself.

These 5 as of late 6 permanent members of the united nations are at the very top of the scientist's tree of monkeys. The top and upper branches has the Psychopaths/ Sociopaths with money and power designing principles upon shifting sands that create unethical corporatism within capitalism, along with the scientists creating something new that we all must have and pay a fee to use, as to get the next grant for funding their laboratory's with blood money made from unethical corporatism within capitalism. The middle branches are B.F. Skinner's rat race propping each other up finding some security in there so called successes. Surrounding themselves with creature comforts along with the scientists that have to invent something new that we all must have and pay a fee to use so that they both can have their names up in lights as to move up the tree. Upon the lower branches are humanities humane and the educated undecided atheist scientists all working together as slaves, yes slaves that have no more then the basic necessities of life and then there are the people on the ground that shift through the sh#t that trickles effectively all the way from the very top and the only thing that varies is the depth. The only love I see on this tree is humanities humane and the educated undecided atheist scientists all as slaves working together on the lowest branches as not to drown in the rising sh#t. Saving who they can from being sweep away within tidal surges that continues to trickle down effectively poisoning the roots of the tree that creates an existence within a Skinner box materialist throw-away society.

SNES Vs Genesis

As my closing statement, I would like to point out my opponent's methodology, and why it is less valid than my own. I take two objective standards: sales and processing power. My opponent says these are not valid to judge the superiority of a system. Ok, let's grant that for a moment: then, what is the basis on which to judge a system? In place of sales and processing power, my opponent gives his opinions on why he likes Genesis more. He says the games are "better" --- which, clearly, is a subjective standard. So what he is actually doing is saying that a subjective standard is to be used to judge the objective benefits of a console system, in which case the entire argument boils down to one's personal preferences. I argue that all the Mario Franchise games, Metroid, F-Zero, all the RPGs (Chrono Trigger in particular), the 3D Donkey Kong Games, Firefox, etc. are all more enjoyable than the games he mentions --- but what does that prove? I like Nintendo more. So what? It would be pointless to argue with the opponent that he doesn't like Genesis better, as he is the authority on his own opinions, just as I am on mine. Rather, the debate centers upon which system is better. The SNES was better financially and better in terms of processing power. If sales and processing power have any bearing on how much the games are liked by the objective majority of people, SNES wins. My opponent has offered no objective basis for any of his claims. He says a game "looks better", or a game's bosses are better, etc. but on what basis, besides his own opinion, is he claiming that it is "better"? He cites nothing. I cited sources for my own objective claims. His one objective claim --- arcade ports --- was also unsubstantiated. Essentially, what he is arguing is that a technically and financially inferior system is better because he likes the games better. Yes, and my grandmother prefers putting puzzles together more than console gaming! So what? What the opponent could have done is pointed out that there are more games available for the Genesis --- which is clearly a plus --- and pointed out that critics generally favor multiplats on the Genesis to the SNES, or that Genesis games won more awards, etc. The expandability of the Genesis into Sega CD and 32x could have also been brought up (though these are actually pretty awful). If the Genesis objectively more award winning games and a clear edge on multiplats in terms of reviews, then a case could be made for its superiority --- or, at least, parity in terms of different benefits. Even if the Genesis is better, my opponent could have argued it more effectively. Instead, he merely stated his opinion, time after time. http://www.youtube.com...
SNES Vs Genesis

OK so round 3 will be about countering the others points Sales Just because a console has sold more than another it doesn't mean its the better console, for example the gamecube didn't sell as much as the original xbox but in my opinion it was the better console of the two. The SNES is the more successful console that is undeniable, but that doesn't make it better. Tech When it comes to the tech between the SNES and the Genesis factually the SNES was better, however having owned both I can tell you that they are virtually identical when playing the same game, and in some cases such as Aladdin, Mortal Kombat and earthworm Jim the genesis versions looked alot better. Like with Sales, the tech of the console doesn't make it better, the Xbox was more powerful than the PlaySation 2, but the PS2 is widely considered to be better than the Xbox. ("It is true that the boss battles may be better on Sonic, and it is absolutely true that it is faster, but consider the boss battles of Super Metroid, in comparison. And Super Metroid is incredibly epic, as far as 16 bit games go. And what about the boss battles and epic nature of Megaman X-X3? This is a cartoon game which I would argue beats Sonic on almost all accounts except for "speed") In response to my opponents argument genesis exclusives like granada and mega turrican and contra hard corps also have incredible bosses, better in my opinion than supermetroid's. In terms of games a little known game called pulseman in my opinion is better than megaman x games, in terms of its "boss battles and epic nature" "It is true that some Genesis games were better, but it is not true in all cases. Killer Instinct was far better on SNES than Genesis, as was Earthworm Jim and Street Fighter. Likely, for every game which was better on Genesis, there is another game on SNES to equal it out, if not exceed it. Yet the people's preference was for SNES as a whole" Actually the majority of multiplats were better on the genesis, games such as Earthworm Jim, Aladdin, Beavis & Butthead, Mortal Kombat, Jurassic Park, Strider, NHL `94, & NBA Jam were all better on the Genesis. This is due to the SNES being the first console to use a significant amount of sub processors and therefore made it harder for third parties to put their game on the SNES, compared to the Genesis. Exhibit D: Sports games --- I have no idea on this one. However, what about racing games? Mario Cart (as a 2 player, not a single player) and F-Zero are simply the two best racing games of that era. -Games like Joe Montana Football, the NHL games and Monaco was better on the genesis, true Mario kart and F-Zero are great racers but so are Super Monaco GP, Road Rash and Virtua Racing( a game that was revolutionary for 3D racers) Exhibit E: Arcade games - maybe. I dunno. It's not enough to make it superior though. I disagree, having alot of arcade ports make the games library larger and better I believe i have won this debate that the Genesis is better
