Here you go with another red herring fallacy. Bye, bye. :popcorn:

I've explained to you the nature of how you commit red herring fallacies. Your comment here is related to the fact that you do not understand the nature of a red herring logical fallacy and how you commit it. Please quit your use of red herring fallacies and then we'll have something to work on.

This is another red herring fallacy. You did not answer the content of what I wrote at #22 but were off and running with writing about what you want. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

junobet, You stated: 'I know that I know nothing, but I am very much certain that Moses did not write the Pentateuch'. The Merriam-Webster dictionary's definition of oxymoron is: 'a combination of words that have opposite or very different meanings'. Therefore, what you wrote was an oxymoron...

Yep! You got it in #78.

What you are missing is that this is another red herring fallacy. In backquoting my #92 post, you did not answer a thing about what I wrote in #92. Don't you get it that this is erroneous reasoning?

Tom, You also are not understanding the serious nature of what happens when logical fallacies are used in conversation. They involve fallacious/erroneous reasoning. They divert attention away from the content of the conversation. Attacking Dave Hunt with an Ad Hominem fallacy does not nullify...

Here you go again with another Ad Hominem logical fallacy. When will you stop doing it so that we can have a rational, responsible conversation? When you give up the use of logical fallacies, you can then begin to address the content of the issues. Content! Content! Content! Not avoidance of...

That's what I have done here. Backquote the person to whom I am replying. Use the 'Quote' icon in the bottom right of the post to which you are responding.

That's why it's best to backquote.

To whom are you referring?

junobet, You say 'you'd hardly write of yourself in the third person'. Who said? I write a daily journal and have often said to friends, 'He wrote', when I'm referring to myself. You might not do it, but I have done it. Besides, to constantly write 'I' in autobiography may sound egotistical to...

Stan, Dr John Millam (not William) has reached a wise conclusion. His article, 'The Genesis Genealogies: Are They Complete?' makes an excellent concluding statement, in my view: Augustine wrote in City of God (Book 11, chapter 6), However, Augustine did promote some contradictory views on...

kepha31, You continue to engage in the use of an Ad Hominem fallacy with this language, 'vicious, under-educated, biblically illiterate bigots'. Please learn what an Ad Hominem fallacy is at The Nizkor Project. Here it is: We cannot have a sensible, reasonable conversation when you attack a...

I explained what an Ad Hominem logical fallacy was and how kepha had committed it. I think it's time you learned the nature of logical fallacies. My description of the logical fallacy that kepha used re Dave Hunt was accurate.

kepha, With that statement about the late Dave Hunt, you have committed an ad hominem logical fallacy. By that fallacy, you have introduced an irrelevant fact about Dave Hunt, which was an attack against Hunt's character. You wanted this attack on Hunt to be evidence to support your claim. It...

Albert, This week a friend alerted me to the Acceptance Speech by Elie Wiesel for his 1986 Nobel Peace Prize. In this speech he stated: I found this to be a profound statement, remembering that Elie is a Jewish survivor of the Holocaust. Some of his relatives did not survive. His plea is that...

Which means?

God, in his sovereignty, determined that was not to be. So this is a pointless hypothetical.

Tom, Australians are commonly known as Aussies or the people from Oz. My Christian name is Spencer, hence the OzSpen. It's as simple as that. Oz
