You do real-eyes that I am a Lawyer, and I am the one who Teaches Burden of Proof Anywhere in the world?

The Universal Law Settled world over is "He who Alleges any Fact whether positive, negative or neutral, Has the Burden of Proving the Truth of that Fact"!

You do not fabricate or manufacture Burden of proof, we lawyers are the Scientists from whose lab Burden of proof is Tested and Approved to be fit for consumption, which is what The Law has Said!

Remember Expert Evidence and you are not the expert, I am.

Please, be respectful and do not argue with me about burden of proof, for you argue because your life is not in danger of certain death and great loss which you will only experience when you have been brought before, A Court!

Every lawyer deals with real life and death of souls therefore we know how an error in misplacing the burden of proof can kill an innocent, so we protect against making such errors with our whole soul and life and you do not.

So please be respectful and stay out of arguing this, for you know not Truly what you say and do.

When you have a real case in your life take that thinking, go to Court, do not engage a lawyer and use it to defend yourself!

If you are successful, call me up and i'll honour you!

At the proper time and the proper thread I would sit in your trial seat for cross examination.

Or better still, raise a thread for that purpose, I"ll meet you there!

But I have done that before with you and you could not proceed, do you remember?

But again I say raise a thread and I'll show you how you can not make me or Christ Jesus, The Lord God Who I Represent, to Validly and Truth Fully, Fall!

Only One Mighty Mighty God, there is None other!

On this thread you are the one on Trial and it can never be me unless I put myself in there, which I will never do.

You are Afraid! You know you will Fall!

Since you are the one challenging me, you have the duty to let the whole world know that you challenge me and the challenge must be open not hidden.

Let the whole world see me fail as you wish or see you fall (which you are Afraid of), one of us must be put to shame and the other "glowry filled"!

So open a thread and let us see betwixt us who shall receive everlasting shame and Ridicule!

Stop hiding in the darkness and running away, be a man and challenge me openly!

You don’t have to see God to accept him.

You just have to test him with a method that will give repeated results. For example we can’t see dark energy yet but we can test it, we can measure it and we know it’s there.

Now what method do you propose we used in testing god and that will give repeated results anytime?
Which god are we testing? We have more than 4,000 of them.

If it can be tested, then Big bang cosmology has won one of its hurdles. But that's not the case bro. You can't just come online to dish out misinformation and think folks are ignorant.
FYI dark matter is called dark because it is BELIEVED to be there when there is NO EVIDENCE for it. It is one of the statement of faith of materialists

You are really not worth debating as you are not interested in facts but misrepresentation that you read from your anti-God sites. Most of your assertions are straw man, making your points irrelevant.
And from experience, you tend to resort to name calling whenever you are refuted since you haven't done your research to see if it's necessary to use those arguments you read, in case they have been refuted and outdated. You could easily save yourself the stress of feeling being cornered with rebuttals if you had done your own research to see if there are rebuttals for the arguments you want to use.

To your statement, Holy Spirit did not have sex with Mary. It's a simple strawman that no serious skeptic of Christianity will ever use.
If you want to go into battle of worldviews, take your time to study diligently, arguments from both camps and not just rush to post something you see that makes you happy without knowing if it even hold substance

Half-baked educated sciolist.
Dark matter can be felt through its effects on the universe, especially through the orbital velocities of stars and gravitational lensing of light around "invisible" objects but there’s no instrument to directly test it but there’s a method to observe it’s effect. Without dark matter and energy, galaxies no do not have enough energy to stay together.
Thanks to scientists, sciolists like you would have immediately attributed it to god.

This cannot be said about your imaginary friend in the skies who cannot be felt in any manner. He can only be felt deluded and ill-educated lairs in churches. grin

There’s no method whatsoever to know that God exist, no one can provide any form repeatable method to that and there’s no amount of insults you pour here will provide evidence for your imaginary friend unless you give a testable method to detect him.

So what do you use your copy and paste to prove now? You claimed that it can be tested and I called you out for it, and you copy and paste what agrees with me, yet you resorted to name calling just as predicted.

Of course, dark matter and energy was postulated to solve some problems in the big bang cosmology. Just like the strawman atheist use that they call gods of the gap, we observe this and don't know what caused it, hence dark matter and energy are responsible for it.

Maybe I have to speak in idiot language for you to understand basic science, this is not God of the gaps. You just don’t know science. It’s just ignorance on your own part. grin

You can account for the extra energy required to put galaxies together, there’s a mathematical calculation to account for this extra energy which is about 85% of the energy we can acount for. Dark energy account for about 2.241×10−27 kg/m3 mass-energy density of the universe measured by the WMAP device to measure the cosmic microwave background. We know it’s there, the mathematical proof is there, we can feel its effects on galaxies , the effects have been calculated and seen in gravitational lensing but we cannot see the matter. Because we cannot see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, as long have we have other means of accurately measuring its present mathematically and otherwise. This cannot be said about your god, your god cannot be measured in any form, this is not equivalent to your invisible and immeasurable god. Just like Neutrinos, we knew it was there because there was an extra mass that couldn’t be accounted for in a decaying atom but we couldn’t be detected but it was there mathematically not until it was detected In 1955.
An example is the gravitational wave, it has been felt and mathematically proven long before LIGO was invented to detect it.
No one has observed any effect of your God, no maths to prove him and nothing whatsoever points to his existence. Even the best Christian scientists failed to provide any observable or mathematical evidence to factor him into he skim of things. He doesn’t exist until you prove it, until then you can’t force anyone to accept your lies.

There’s no gap here, dark matter have been accurately measured and quantified by different scientific methods.
It’s nobody’s fault if you lack access to information grin

I am not getting distracted with your red herring. The argument you made is that you said dark matter can be tested which you now know that it can't be. Mathematical model is a very important tool but can be used to model many things which is accepted or rejected mostly on worldview. So it doesn't do much, which is why research has been on for decades to detect dark matter or energy. According to the scientific method, it remains a fudge factor. No matter the copy and paste you do will undo that

You can’t simply engage a religious person with logic. He that believes in something that hasn’t been proven is already logically bereaved.

The problem is you don't understand what you copied and because you see numbers, you feel that you've shown yourself to be the prof here grin grin
You clearly don't understand what you wrote, else you wouldn't say that it has been tested by WMAP. It is in simple terms, the factor that makes an equation work.
For example, I can't mathematically say that 23 = 23. But I can solve it by adding x to the left hand side which can be solved to be 15. What you have is an equation that should add up to 23 but you can only see the value 23, hence, you can say that x is there even if you cannot detect it and will calculate the value of x. THAT DOES NOT PROVE THAT x can be tested

[/s]junk logic with fallacy faulty equivalence. Now you have willingly come up to showcase the gross decline in science education in our country. Probably that’s how you guys reason in church.

Your mathematics is grossly flawed as it doesn’t represent the case with dark energy and matter. The best illustration you would have given is when you have a mathematical expression x + 12= 20, we know the value the total energy in the universe is 20 in Thisbe case and the value for baryonic matter is 12, x is the value of dark matter and energy. We already know it’s there.

It’s not even rocket science, if you estimate total mass of the observable universe, we can expect an in-ward contraction due gravity but We see the universe expanding at a constant acceleration instead of contracting, it means that there is a force responsible for that acceleration which is greater than total force of attraction between galaxies. Dark matter has been felt in the expansion rate of the universe, using the expansion rate you can determine its mass and properties.
It’s not the nonsense evangelical and fallacious Mathematics you presented up there. grin
