Muslim Hate Group Gives Death-threat to South Park

Why would I need to prove they don't exist? I'm not the one claiming to know they don't exist.

I gave you a real response. Your entire argument is nothing. Simple as that. so instead you try to play some completely unrelated card. Read again: your logic is completely fallacious. Means I don't have to say anything more, because you have nothing.

By showing that his argument doesn't really exist, you actually answered his question.

Good job :2wave:
 
I guess that's why I stick to the philosophy section. People outside it are incapable of serious logical discussion, and rely on the emotional support of others to make an argument rather than sound reason.

Take a Logic 101 class or something.

If you'd taken a Logic 101 class, you'd realize that you can't prove a negative.

That's what I've been saying this entire time...?

He claims he knows something doesn't exist. Not believes it, knows it. This means he has some completely normative proof that it cannot be the case, otherwise there is not certainty, and he can't know it.

My entire point is he cannot possibly claim to know a negative, like Allah does not exist. Hence why I brought it up.

ON the other hand, the existence of God hasn't been proven, either. Get busy.

p.s. I believe in anonymous. They are legion.

What the hell are you talking about? Strawman much? I'm not the one claiming to know God doesn't exist, nor am I claiming to know God exists. Please tell me you can see that's a complete straw man.

I don't know where the confusion is coming for you guys. He can't know a negative, that's why I asked for proof, because I know there is none. Sure enough, his "proof" is fallacious, because of the very reason you can't prove a negative.

You seem confused and a little agitated.
 
I am confused. If you agree with me that you can't prove a negative, why the disagree above?

The only points I made from the point I asked "How do you know?" is "You can't know unless you remove all certainty", "You can't be certain until you've proved it", "It's impossible to prove a negative", "So you don't actually know Allah doesn't exist."

Then people who agree with me start posting to disagree with me...? So am I getting a serious response? It can be frustrating to make simple point yet have a bunch of people go over the top with their responses without actually just reading.
 
To be more clear, it is 99.9345908340934083409% certain that Allah was a figment of Mohammed's schizophrenia-addled imagination.

Happy now?

Well, now I'd be interested in how you calculated that number. :)

But yes; now get stekim to realize I "didn't get schooled" (a post you thanked, for whatever reason), that his argument is fallacious (which means I don't have to prove or demonstrate anything until he fixes his argument), and be a bit more rational than claiming to know a negative.

I dislike irrationality, be it from theists or atheists.
 
I would say this language conveys much less of a threat than much of the rightwing rhetoric against the Obama administration or Congress

Ya what with all of those crazy conservative pundits killing tens of thousands of people every year, rioting over cartoons, stabbing people through their arts, etc etc.. :roll:

... Islam is not a monolithic entity.
 

Dang. Sounds like ****'s going to hit the fan. I wonder what's next?

And I wonder if the media will cover this in the next 24 hours? If anyone hears anything on the news, please post it. I'm curious what they have to say. THIS is news worthy.

That and the Revolutionislam.com hack.

BTW that hack is epic. I'm rooting for Anonymous
 
... Islam is not a monolithic entity.

So then Muslims deny the existence of the Ummah? But yes I do agree, however, the Muslims who I usually find who are actually liberal tend to have bounties on their heads, supposedly liberal Muslim organizations or prominent individuals usually turn out to be anything but E.G. the un-indicted terrorist co-conspirators in CAIR who talk out of both sides of their mouths and who are affiliated with the grandfather of every modern Islamist terrorist organization; the Muslim Brotherhood.
 
Look at these angry Muslims hinting at violence!!!

Oh, wait. Never mind.

You don't even have to prove a negative. The mere fact the positive cannot be shown to be the case is sufficient enough.

And when did I say I "knew"? I merely said Allah does not exist. Let me clarify what I meant. That's far easier than letting you decide what I meant. Based on the evidence at hand (or total lack thereof) one can only logically conclude that no such thing as an Allah exists. Therefore, as of right now, the statement "Allah does not exist" seems pretty darn accurate to me. However, should Allah appear and smote me thus I will happily change my stance given the new evidence. Does that mean my current thoughts on Allah are opinion, belief or fact? I don't know and I don't care. Label as you wish I suppose. It does not change anything, i.e. there is no evidence such a thing exists, so one can only conclude it does not.

Congratulations. You found a pic of some redneck holding a sign.

That sure makes the terrorist death threats A o.k., doesn't it! Thanks for reminding us.
 
South Park had an episode years ago with Mohammed mentioned, yet CC did not refuse it. Why is this time different? Extremists were no different a few years ago. It is Comedy Central that has lost its guts.

And I have no idea how people jumped from discussing South Park to whether Allah exists or not.
