I have read your comment several times and i don't really know what you are asking.
"What's in the bible has no bearing on whether it is the word of god or not."
You said:
How can you possibly say my arguments were random directed at nothing? If you disagree with my assesment then respond with couterpoints, don't just say "you're rambling about nothing." That's very frustrting because i am putting time and a great deal of thought into my responses, and if you are just going to dismiss them out of hand as "random statements" then i will stop wasting my time trying to reason with you. I'm not saying that to be mean, i just don't want to waste time debating someone who doesn't/won't acknowledge my points.
Yeah, the argument stating that you use circular reasoning when you use the bible to prove the bible. That's using the premise to prove the conclusion which is a flaw in logic and considered a fallacy. It applies perfectly to what we were talking about. How can i give a more convincing argument for circular reasoning? Give me an example of acceptable circular reasoning.ou’re just trundling out some basic arguments that don’t really apply.
I am struggling to even know what that sentence means. So for my example of circular reasoning to be valid i have to demonstrate that the bible is NOT the word of god? Idk if i am getting that right or not. But that would be a shifting of the burden of proof. It's like saying "you can use that circular reasoning argument, but first you have to disprove all of christianity." that's nonsense.i.e why there isn’t anything in the Bible that isn’t somehow linked to there being a God
Are you trolling me? lol. I said:The arguments you are offering here are just vacuous, they don’t allow for anything to actually be addressed - that isn’t an argument, it’s just a bunch of random statements directed at nothing in particular.

I explained why what is in the bible has no bearing on whether it's the word of god (because it's circular reasoning). That argument i put forth to you directly addressed your comment and i elaborated on it even further by giving a thought exmple of "i am god, how do you know, blah blah."That's an unusual statement - I would say that what is in the bible is essential to understanding whether it is the word of God or not. Could you explain what you mean in a bit more detail?
