C.S. Lewis's Irrefutable Proof of Christianity (Or God)

[The Tiger Kingdom]

Logic is a good whore, she can be used to prove whatever you want. All you have to do is set up your goal, set up your premise and .... go.

Oh, how edgy you are.

[Esternial]

I hope everyone here realizes that C.S. Lewis was an Atheist for most of his life.
I bet that was already said.
Anywho, those are some of the most convincing arguments for the Christian faith I have ever seen. Better than anything I have ever thought of, for sure.

The guy contradicts himself, srsly.

Logic doesn't prove anything. Logic is only about the quality of the reasoning used. One can be illogical and right, and one can be logical and wrong.

Logic is like a mathematical function, it's only as good as the facts you put in.

As a fellow brother in Christ I'd like to remind you that we don't have to "prove" God. He already does that, (Romans 1 starting in verse 18). Just show His love to all people!

Yes you do.

Well, not really. I mean, they have to if they expect us to start accepting his existence, but it's not like they're gonna get locked up if they don't prove God.

Did...did you actually read them?
Or are you THAT theologically deprived you haven't ever heard a better argument?
Hell, I could make a better argument for god's existence, and I'm an atheist.

He could have had his reasons. He could have used the Holocaust, for example, to teach people lessons about things.

EDIT: As in, people learn from tragedy.

Like "don't be Jewish, Romani, disabled, etc, that way you won't get killed" or something. Yeah, there must have been some GREAT lessons God gave.

Hypothetical utilitarianism is so open-ended to be undeniable, because you can make the theoretical claim that something worse could have happened.

Prove that love exists.

[Mavorpen]

Yes you do.

Yes they will. If they don't...

Prove that love exists.

Porn and beer exist in the same universe.

Clearly there is a god that loves us and wants us to be happy.

[Xeng He]

But free will.

Wait. So God is guiding our lives, but we have free will. How does that work, exactly? How do I have free will if some omnipresent power is controlling my life and guiding my choices?

Pretty simple, actually. We can choose to take whatever course of action we want, but since God can manipulate anything in our environment and the physical outcomes of all we do...

Logic is like this metaphor that I'm making in that I'm actually using simile.

I accept this reasoning. PRAISE BE TO JESUS!

No, dumbass*, it's a joke. It's not that easy to convert me.
*Dumbass included only for people who thought I actually believed because of this.

[Genivaria]

Yes you do.

We lock up the people who can't prove they're time-travelers, we give them nice jackets so that the hug themselves all the time.

I think therefore I am

Im such a damn cynical bastard I cant even accept that.

[Valourium]

Ugh, it's this guy again. The last post he made about "Why Christianity is true" was a giant troll fest in which no actual evidence was presented for the side of Christianity.

Rule number one of NationStates!... You do not talk about religion!
Rule number two of NationStates!... You do not talk about religion.
Rule number three of NationStates: Shall you so choose to talk about religion, you risk your own sanity.
Rule number four of NationStates: You shall post at your own risk. AKA--it is your choice to feed the trolls. This may be a laugh riot for quite awhile, but will end up blowing up in your face.
