Re: All of our knowledge is conjectural; evidence cannot certify or

All of our human knowledge is conjectural, not just what comes out of

the power to certify or justify our universal conjectures as true or
even probably true.  About the best it can do is justify our belief.  

this does, i suppose, include our beliefs about god...and the bible.


So Earle Jones's position that the existence of evidence (or lack of
it) represents a demarcation line between what is (and is not)
bullshit is itself bullshit.  No one has found a way around Hume's
argument.  

including his views on god...


One additional thing to consider:  All false theories have some true
consequences so all false theories can garner evidence.  As a result
Earle Jones's entrance test of "evidence" lets in every false theory
as well as those that might be true.

then how do you know they're false? not too bright there, tony.


Finally what comes out of Ray's mouth (or Earle's) should be granted
scientific consideration if it solves some real world problem needing
a solution, can be connected to the real material world, and prohibits
some real world event from occuring (making it falsifiable).

since creationism is prohibited, we can apply tony's test and
determine creationism is wrong.
