@josephw saidYour strong faith [and faith-based assertions attendant thereto] aside, neither of us know whether there is a creator entity or not.
Your logic fails you because you don't know whether there be a creator God or not.

@josephw saidAdmitting that we don't know something is an honest and rational stance to take.
Arguing from a position of not knowing is irrational. No excuses.
@josephw saidThanks for telling me you believe this.
God created faith. Faith comes from God. Faith is not defined by you, but by the one that created faith.
@fmf saidThat's the other fundamental flaw in your argument.

@fmf saidThat's not what I was talking about, nor was it what I inferred.

@fmf saidIf that's all you got out of what I posted, then you are fooling yourself.
Thanks for telling me you believe this.
@josephw saidI defer to your knowledge of your religion, its texts and whatnot. But neither of us know whether there is some kind of entity that created the universe, your strong faith and religious zeal notwithstanding.
You're merely projecting your lack of knowledge of the existence of a creator God onto someone else.

@josephw saidI don't think there's any problem with my personal integrity.
That's not what I was talking about, nor was it what I inferred.
And you know it. Speaks volumes with regards to your personal integrity.
@fmf saidSpeak for yourself. Stop projecting your lack of knowledge.

@fmf saidIf you deflect from and infer something I didn't say it calls into question your personal integrity, sincerity and authenticity.
I don't think there's any problem with my personal integrity.
@josephw saidYou believe there is one. You are using the word "know" im a hyperbolic way.
I know there is a creator God, and you can't know I don't.
@josephw saidI responded dirrectly and honestly.
If you deflect from and infer something I didn't say it calls into question your personal integrity, sincerity and authenticity.
@josephw saidCould there be a creator entity? Yes. Does either of us know that there is one? No. You believe there is one: fair enough. I understand.
The greater question is whether or not all that exists was created by a being of infinite power.I say yes, you say you don't know.
