Maybe she just went to the wrong church. *duck*

-blam!- off. Don't relate religion (which you knew would cause a debate/debacle) into DESTINY A VIDEO GAME. That analogy in no way is representative of the xurners/earners problem.

We where created in God image making us in away miniature versions of God so she should use what we created in gods name

5 Odpowiedzi[quote]Edit: apparently people somehow think I am saying all religious people are idiots. This is not the case. I am simply saying that relying on God to do what he expects you to do is idiotic.[/quote] You've contradicted yourself in that very edit. Your fallacy of an analogy sucks, and you should have picked something better. Bias: prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair. This is bias. The way you describe the analogy comparing those with religious viewpoints with that of those who think they earned their gear. Essentially stating that those who acquired their their gear through gameplay means, and flaunt it, is the religious mother. But in actuality this leads to the fact this is no an analogy of any kind to debate this situation. The way you describe 'earners' and those that you relate to them is 'idiotic'. Which is in actuality what 'earners' are, you don't earn gear in the game , period. But equating them to people who hold religious faith? That's bias my friend. As stated above, it is nearly the exact definition. The analogy does [b][i][u]NOT[/u][/i][/b] make sense. If it were to be an analogy, both mothers would have a living child, as both 'earners' and 'Xūrners' have the item in question, though acquired through different means. Essentially what this fallacy of an 'analogy' equates to is that the religious mother who loses her child is the 'Earner' who retains their exotic, while scientific mother keeps her child as the 'Xūrner' does as well. Do you see the inconstancy? If not here's the TLDR. (TL:DR) -OP's analogy- Earners:Religious:loses < Xūrners:Scientific:endure -correct analogy- Earners:Religious:endure = Xūrners:Scientific:endure Verdict: OP can't make analogies.

5 OdpowiedziEdytowany przez użytkownika FLLPWR: 1/18/2015 3:29:07 AMGod supplies the way out. Sometimes, there is no way out. A man stands on his roof because his town has been flooded from a storm and he has no where to go. Another man floats by on a raft. 'Get in! I will save you!' 'No', the man on the roof says,'ive prayed and God will rescue me!' The man in the boat leaves. Soon, a man in a helicopter arrives. 'Get in! Ill pull you out of here!', he says. 'No! Ive prayed and God will soon come to rescue me!' Says the man. And off the helicopter goes. Eventually, the man drowns...once dead, he speaks with God and asks him. 'Lord, I prayed for you to come rescue me and you did nothing!' 'What are you talking about!?' Says God, 'I sent you a boat and a helicopter!' There's more detail, but you get the idea. What the lady who prayed to God in your story didn't realize, is that she had already been blessed with the means by which to help her sons ailment. It's ignorant and self-righteousness. As far as xurners and earners go. Everyone has an icebreaker. What does it matter how they got it at this point?

13 OdpowiedziI'm going state... I'm Christian and will be a nuclear weapons tech with the Air Force. No where in the bible does it state that science is wrong. Science hasn't proven God exist, but lack of evidence doesn't prove lack of existence. In the bible, Jesus even stated we'll preform miracles greater than what he preformed. Maybe this was a reference to scientific discoveries healing illnesses, correcting vision problems, and much more. Science didn't exist, physically on earth, at the time the bible was wrote. So if Jesus stated something, the general public wouldn't understand it. Galileo comes later, and has the first writings for science. I've never understood the whole church vs. science, faith vs. logic nonsense. Nothing is 100% guaranteed with science, so there's always going that margin of faith, hoping everything goes right.

3 OdpowiedziDefine "earn" Sitting AFK through a strike playlist? Running nightfall with people to carry you? Please explain to me why my gjallhorn from nightfall is earned, while those that bought it at the beginning haven't earned it. They worked for the strange coins. They did the strike. It's perfectly fair and you need to get over yourself. Some people do hard raid every week, nightfall, etc. and never get it. In a way they are relying on "God" to give them an exotic from these methods, where Xur is the system that "God" has created to give us what we want.

[quote]No it's not u saying that is like u saying that anyone who uses religion in an analogy is biased[/quote] First off, please learn to use correct grammatical form when debating, it makes things so much easier to understand.

To keep people from being angry, you should change the second part to "The 2nd mother uses the tools god has given her." So it doesn't seem as bad.

In this instance there are numerous other instances where science could not fix a child with cancer. And maybe a situation where a prayer's child was "miraculously" cured saying "see, you should have put your faith in god." Where, if you believe in a god, science should be the how god does what he does. not an atheist only practice

It is almost like you are trying to start religious beef on here... -_-
