[ QUOTE ]

So, the works of Nietzsche and Heidegger are part of Theology. Correct?


[/ QUOTE ]

They deal with many of the same questions as theology.

[/ QUOTE ]So, they deal with k, which is part of P, while k (as you say) is also part of T.

And, from this, you deduce that set P is a member of set T.

Can you see the error of your ways ?

[ QUOTE ]
Nietzsche says there are no absolutes. Theology says there are.

[/ QUOTE ]So what's that supposed to mean?

I'm genuinely puzzled. Since both endeavors, philosophy and theology, concern themselves with the issue of absolutes, this means ..what exactly about which one incorporates the other?

[ QUOTE ]
I believe that theology is greater than and includes philosophy, but that's of no consequence.

[/ QUOTE ]What is of consequence, is your use of the operative word : you believe, indeed, and actually have noting else to base that contention on, i.e. that philosophy is ...part of theology. Jesus Christ Almighty.

[ QUOTE ]
[Atheists] don't want the God of the Bible to exist. They may want a senile old grandfather in the sky who will overlook their faults and give them all the presents they want, I don't know.

[/ QUOTE ]Again, I point out the operative words : I don't know. Truly, you don't. As stated many a time, Man has come to realize that the gods of the past are his own creation, instead of vice versa. It cannot be denied, nevertheless, that a world with a God as prescribed in Christian religion, or even other monotheistic religions (which are, in any case, quite similar) would be vastly preferable for Man to the God-less world we actually inhabit. And for many reasons, too, which have been already presented in other threads. (It's really elementary stuff.)

[ QUOTE ]
If atheists don't believe in God, they don't believe in Satan either. And if it turns out God does exist, why would atheists turn to Satanists?


[/ QUOTE ]
I didn't say anything about satanists.

[/ QUOTE ] Well, you said "Atheists just don't want God to exist; but if the God of the Bible does, they want Satan to win." People who prefer Satan over God are called Satanists. I will accept a retraction but cannot accept that the definition of Satanist has changed.

Oh, and you also said "[Atheists] may hate Satan more but still want him to win since he's the underdog."

You must be confusing atheists with long-shot bettors. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
