Evidence for why we know the New Testament writers told the truth.

This link doesn't point to "someone" levitating.

But some scientists say levitation of a person is possible in theory:

From the Telegraph article:

Physicists have 'solved' mystery of levitation

By Roger Highfield, Science Editor

"Professor Ulf Leonhardt and Dr Thomas Philbin, from the University of St Andrews in Scotland, have worked out a way of reversing this pheneomenon, known as the Casimir force, so that it repels instead of attracts.

Their discovery could ultimately lead to frictionless micro-machines with moving parts that levitate But they say that, in principle at least, the same effect could be used to levitate bigger objects too, even a person."

Skeptics should answer my hypothetical question (post 9152). It hurts your credibility not to.

It hurts your credibility not to acknowledge the answers that have been given.

That is to say, it would hurt your credibility if you had any left.

Here you go DOC:

9153, 9155, 9159, 9163, 9164, 9170, 9173, 9174, 9175, 9176, 9192, 9193, 9195, 9196, 9198, 9199, 9201, 9209, 9212, 9214, 9215, 9216, 9219, 9220.

Are you in the same thread everyone else is?

In which post did they answer either person A or person B.

So, not so much in 2005 or 2008 then?

And person A claimed he saw someone levitate in 2005 in Florida

And person B claimed he saw someone levitate in 2008 in New York.

<Snip nonsense>

So a quantum effect=levitation?

I guess then a resurrected frozen guppy=resurrection in your little world? Wow.

Skeptics should answer my hypothetical question. It hurts your credibility not to.

It's been answered. You just don't like it that no one takes your idiotic hypothetical seriously.

 

[Cleon]

In which post did they answer either person A or person B.

"Neither" is still an answer, even if you refuse to acknowledge it.

 

[paximperium]

In which post did they answer either person A or person B.

No where. It's been answered anyway. You just don't like the answer since it shows your entire argument concerning Ramsay to be nonsense.

Funny how the fundie nutjob in DOC's hypothetical can't get the atheist to say "God exists" even holding a gun to his head.

Your gun (metaphor for Hell, I presume) is shooting blanks.

Since this article says scientists have said levitation of a person is possible in theory this greatly increases the likelihood that the NT writers were telling the truth when they reported Christ walked on water and Christ ascended into heaven.

So Jesus used a Quantum effect to levitate?
Using your logic this actually greatly increases the likelihood that Christ was a Reptoid alien shapechanger using a molecular transmogrification levitator device to walk on water and fly off into space with his magic farts.

So Jesus had access to a 21st-century quantum physics lab?

There are simply not enough facepalms.

Walk me through the logic on this one, DOC.

There are some places Man was not meant to go, Robo. That's a deep, dark, scary maze of twisty passages, all alike.

No, Doc, it doesn't. For many reasons, none of which you would understand (or would simply refuse to acknowledge).

Doc: Any evidence that the NT writers were telling the truth?

I'm sorry, but this thread has already been a major contributor to the international facepalm shortage; and this post of yours, DOC, may be the final nail in the coffin.

The only logical explanation is that DOC is admitting he's a troll.

Calvin and Hobbes traveled back to Jesus' time? Could explain an awful lot...

The logic is self evident, but actually I don't believe God/Jesus is subjected to the laws of science, I believe God created the Laws of Science.

This argument about levitation is more for skeptics as a purely intellectual argument than for people who already believers.

Actually I'm dead serious about every one of my 4,414 posts.
