Linkara Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 As a Christian who tries to incorporate both faith and reason at the same time, I'd say that your friend was asking the wrong questions. ^^;; You gave the right answers, though, it would appear.

Well, if he was asking the wrong questions, then what exactly are the right questions?? And in what way did I supposedly "give the right answers"?

KendallJ Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Ambiv, Adding to the comments of Software Nerd. a. In general, you let the Christian drive the argument, looking for an opening in your reasoning. b. You misstepped at "idealism" and "making the world a better place". c. You gave him an opening at admitting your emotion at need to be with someone, which is potentially valid, but he twisted it to his ends, and you didn't correct it. d. "God" to fill the tiny gaps. Blew it big time. At least if you were counting on Objectivist thought to be your defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
