God's Existence

My forfeiture of the previous round was a result of electrical difficulties in my area: no power = no computer. I apologize for accidentally giving the false impression that I had given up. First, let me say that I was hoping to keep this debate lighthearted- your accusations of "arrogance" and promises to "make a fool of me" demonstrate that you share no such desires. You also declared my arguments "hogwash". I take offence. Your vehemence disappoints me. Allow me to defend myself: You stated the following: "You have also ignored the possibility of Islamic god, Jehovah's Witness's god, Mormon god, Judaical god, Hindu god, and humanistic god." First let me state that both Jehovah's Witnesses and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints consider themselves to be Christians, and that the definition of Christian according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary is this: 1Chrisï¿½tian noun \ˈkris-chən, ˈkrish-1a: one who professes belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ [3] -Both the Jehovah's Witness organization and the LDS Church fit this definition accurately, therefore their God is the Christian God. (However most Christian organizations deny them as being Christian, they fit the dictionary definition). -There is no official "Humanistic God". In fact, many Humanists do not believe in a god. -The proper name of the Jewish god is "YHVH", or "Yahweh", who is the Old Testament God. -There are MULTIPLE Hindu gods, none of which are called "God". The defense of my "capital G" argument is that NO OTHER RELIGIONS refer to their deity as such. "God" is Christian, in the way that "Yahweh" is Jewish. I will now dismantle your counterarguments- 1. "should this scripture be interpreted literally"- It must be, or else it cannot be used to prove anything. If meanings are open for interpretation, then all conclusions are matters of opinion, cannot be reinforced but with more opinion. 2. "I would stop and ask you, what does God look like?"- Forgive my for not explaining my full argument. If one man and one woman are the antecedents of the entire human race, then their offspring would be required to breed with themselves. Such a small gene pool would yield children with remarkably similar physical traits. Today we have multiple races. Genetically, this is impossible. You cannot take a Black man and a White man and say they both look like God. 3. I politely ask YOU to explain to me how two people with zero physical traits in common can both look like God. You also attempt to use Michael Jackson to support your genetics argument, whilst not knowing that he had undergone multiple plastic surgeries and had also bleached his skin in an effort to combat the skin disease "vitiligo". The disease causes your skin to become lighter in irregular splotches, and it began on MJ's hand. This is why he wore a single glove during the "Thriller" era. [4] I would also like to point out that even though I started this debate, I did so on the terms of your previous terms, where you claimed that YOU could "undeniably prove the existence of God". You have given me no undeniable proof as of yet, and have merely attempted to shoot down counterexamples. I will not explain evolution, as it is irrelevant and I am running out of Characters. You have no right to improvise rules and declare that "I Lose" if I choose not to acknowledge your blind ignorance. I was under the impression that when you said "Undeniable", you meant it. My closing argument against your God is this, for lack of characters: "Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!" (Revelation 19:6). omï¿½nipï¿½oï¿½tent (m-np-tnt) adj. Having unlimited or universal power, authority, or force; all-powerful. [3] Can God create a task that he can not accomplish? Yes? Then he is not all powerful. No? Then he is not all powerful. Omnipotence is impossible by definition. [3]http://www.merriam-webster.com... [4]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
