Beliefs:I am really a Liberitarian-Conservative. My pet peeves in theological debates: The omnipotence paradox, in which a definition is contrived for omnipotence that cannot possibly describe something real, to declare that something called omnipotent must not be real. The law of conservation of mass, used against Genesis, assuming that because we have never seen anything create or destroy mass through natural processes, nothing can create or destroy mass, not even the supernatural. I'm always willing to debate either or these.

"It is no more likely that the tenth marble will be blue than it is that it will be red."

Vi_Veri

This is a quote from a packet over Francis Bacon. The full situation is that a man draws nine blue marbles out of a bag of ten. According to the packet, Bacon's contemporaries claimed that the tenth marble is just as likely to be red as it is likely to be blue. I am against this notion. The man has no idea how he obtained this bag. This scenario allows for speculation, but no speculations may be confirmed within the given scenario. As for definitions, blue and red are two very different...

With the exception of my first round, a player may only do something besides make rules to discuss whether one has bro...
