Some answers

Posted by: Db0 in Internet, Religion, tags: Christianity, Q&A, reason

Quick note: Scott Pruett has started answering the initial refutations to his 10 questions and in his latest post he has started including answers from the ACP. Unfortunately I’m on vacation at the moment and can’t answer but feel free to take a shot at it.

Very shortly: This time he is tackling the answers to the ‘Order’ question. Unfortunately his answers can be simply surmised as him falling back onto his ‘Creation’ question. He turned the question from “How can the universe be finely tuned to human life” to “Why have a universe that can sustain any kind of life rather than no life” this is aking to saying “Why is there a universe”.

And my answer to that question is the same as before.

    Mmm cherrypicking. I like how he only quoted half my point and made a definitional retreat as a response. Slippery, slippery.

    I also enjoy how he feels it is necessary to make himself sound scientific. by throwing around terms.

    Oh my, this guy really doesn't know. The anthropic principle is useless. It violates the very scientific rules it uses to describe the constants. It's simply not falsifiable. He could just have said "God exists!" and he would have made exactly the same point.
