[Town Heretic]

with nature everything must die except rocks but they are not very interesting

Well, things that aren't alive don't tend to die or be very interesting.

in nature we see order

You can see a pony in the clouds sometimes, faces in leaves and wood panels or light sockets. We see patterns, provide contexts that reflect what we're experiencing.

and
that demands a designer
common sense should tell you that

Common sense would tell you the earth is still and the sun moves around it.

Causality/contingency is a better answer for the necessity of God.

the gif was it

you see it carefully 'designed' a well crafted basket for carrying fruit, pipes, etc..

so then this basket proves that there is a designer, correct?

even atheists believe in Nature-Physical the only difference is their choice of Designer ours being God theirs being Gravity, so this should be a piece of cake.

//...presuming you believe in cake

*insert the cake is a lie joke here*

to recap:

1. they believe in Gravity
2. you believe in God

3. IDW's third choice, why not both.gif?

there is chaos in you mind
simply because you don't put limits on anything
nature has limits
you need only to recognize them

[chrysostom]

nature
is
life
is
procreation
any interference with procreation violates natural law
unless
it is necessary to sustain life

[chrysostom]

yes
no
ok

Which part of Nature does the 'soul' fall under?

would it help if you defined Nature, BEFORE you start describing, categorizing it...?

or i suppose we can all just start debating it, even if we have no earthly idea of what ANYone is even talking about...

would be about par for the interwebs-society

/nevar gets old

I already defined nature as life which is procreation and the law that governs it

I would be more interested in this thread if I didn't know I was being baited by a punk. It's an interesting subject.

^^ THIS ^^

I predict this thread will get to be 15+ pages long with the constant rabbit hole trails of fresh questions.
