James, You say, "...Christian theology is therefore preferentially selected by the known laws of physics due to the fundamentally triune structure of the cosmological singularity..." (You say this is because there is a cosmological singularity that consists of a three-aspect structure.)
By the same reasoning, then, shouldn't 3-legged chairs be in vogue? How come 3-wheel vehicles are not the norm? Shouldn't a ménage a trois be our primary mode of sexual interactions? For that matter, why don't most advanced organisms have 3 major appendages rather than 4?
Come to think of it, if you work your cuckoo reasoning backwards, it seems to me that you should be looking for a 4-part "structure of the cosmological singularity" and a religion that has 4 Gods in One. (And when having sexual intercourse, we should always involve 3 other people.)
This is why you don't comment on old threads. He has the "notify me" flag set. It doesn't matter what you say, he's just going to keep repeating himself. He doesn't know what empiricism or materialism or naturalism of epistemology really mean, but he has no problem telling some of the greatest minds in the world that they are the ones who are wrong. You can sound like you are doing science if can collect enough similar facts in your head then connect them. One requires only a slightly more amount of actual knowledge than James has to explain why he's wrong.
You're right, of course. I just didn't want him to get away with the (lying or, at best, pathetically erroneous) stunt of saying a lot of science-ish stuff and then saying
"therefore"... Christianity is "selected" by all the science-ish stuff.
Of course, this sort of BS would go over well with a niche market of Christians who want to try to make their religion compatible with a more realistic worldview. So we're probably just helping him market something by encouraging his canned responses.
Hi, TimB. My full sentence which you above partially quote from was "Christian theology is therefore preferentially selected by the known laws of physics due to the fundamentally triune structure of the cosmological singularity (which, again, has all the haecceities claimed for God in the major religions), which is deselective of all other major religions."
It is the parenthetical statement within that full sentence which addresses your above concern. The Cosmological Singularity is intrinsically infinite, and infinity in theology has traditionally been held to be a property unique to God (i.e., God is the only actually-existing infinity in physical reality). The Cosmological Singularity also has all the other unique properties (i.e., haecceities; quiddities) claimed for God in the traditional religions. Hence, by definition, the Cosmological Singularity is God. For details on that, see Sec. 7.1: "The Haecceities of God", pp. 35 ff. of my aforecited article "The Physics of God and the Quantum Gravity Theory of Everything".
