Use collapsible tabs for more detailed information that will help customers make a purchasing decision.
Ex: Shipping and return policies, size guides, and other common questions.
Payment, Shipping & Delivery
Will I receive the same pattern, design, finish, and fabric material as shown in the images online?
At Nismaaya Decor, we keep updating our designs, and there may be some changes and variations in materials and elements used in comparison to what you see online. However, these changes will be minor, not affecting your preferences and design choices. As wood and stone are natural products, they react in a different way to staining, and thus they may impact their appearance in terms of colour, grains, and patterns. The handmade fabrics look slightly different in the photographs due to angles and lighting. Also, we confirm the availability of fabrics used in the furniture pieces post receipt of the payment.
Which are the cities where you deliver the furniture items?
We have spread our wings across India, but for overseas delivery, you need to check with us beforehand as it will be subject to customs regulation.
How much time does it take for delivery?
We process our orders within 48-72 hours of payment receipt. If we have the product ready, we will ship it in the next 48 hours. But if we have to customize it or manufacture it from scratch, then the delivery time will be as mentioned on the product page Staring from 2 Weeks - 4 Weeks. However, the actual manufacturing will start depending on the factory schedule and available time slot for manufacturing (which may be up to a month).
What are the shipping charges?
We offer FREE SHIPPING Pan India
How can I track my order?
To check the status of your order, you can login to your account and trace. Also, you can reach out to our customer support team via phone call, live chat or email us. All the contact information is available on our website. Once we dispatch your order, we will send you complete details about the tracking code or driver's number for your reference.
My shipment is delayed. What can I do?
Once we dispatch your order, it is the responsibility of the third party transporter to deliver the furniture on time. We will surely share all the details about the dispatch along with tracing code and driver's number so that you can get in touch with him and ask about your shipment. In case you are unable to track him, get in touch with our customer support team, and they will surely do their utmost to resolve your concern.
Will the transporter unload the furniture items from the vehicle, open the packaging, and install them inside my house?
When you place an order online, the transport is usually done through a third party logistics provider. Thus, the transporter will place the items till the ground floor and will not open the packaging and install your furniture. However, in case of bulk orders, the items may be sent through a dedicated vehicle and you can get the unloading done by paying some amount to the labour at that time as this is an additional service and will surely be chargeable. Please get in touch with our team to discuss this in detail.
What should be the next step if I get a damaged furniture item?
Though we always pack the furniture items in the best way possible to avoid any damage, still if you face such a concern, then immediately notify at the time of delivery on the delivery challan and consignment copy. Make sure you open and check all the furniture items for any defect/damage. Once the damages are reported, our team will reach out to you within 24 hours for concrete plan of action.
- Free door delivery of your products is applicable to the ground floor of your building.
- If you need delivery services to your specific floor, you will be charged an additional cost. This cost will be liable to be paid on the spot at the time of delivery.
- Be assured of receiving your order safely packed in a plywood box, ensuring protection from any damage during transit. Please note that we are not responsible for opening and unpacking the item.
Cancellation and Refunds
Can I cancel my order?
Cancellations are allowed for 24 hours once the order is placed. After that, we do not accept cancellations.
What is the process of returning the order?
All your furniture items should be opened and checked immediately for any defect/damage. Any such issue should be notified on the delivery challan and consignment copy. Any claim of transit damage will not be considered if you don't notify it at the time of delivery.
We had placed an order but the furniture we received is not of desired size, and is not fitting in the area where it was supposed to be installed. What should be done now?
At the time of manufacturing or customisation of your furniture items, we pay utmost attention to the measurement and size of the product. Hence, returns due to the sizes or usability in the area are not possible. In case there is any doubt, please feel free to connect with us. We will be happy to help you in case of any queries.
Can I return a product after some time if it is found to be defective?
If the product is within the warranty period, then we can surely repair or replace the defective product. For more details and clarity, please get in touch with our customer care representatives and share with them the order ID and images of the defective product.
When will I receive the refund or what's the procedure for the same?

FSFE Newsletter - June 2009
June has definitely been a thrilling month. Besides our ongoing activities with Fellowship meetings, participations to events such as the LinuxTag in Berlin, most of our energy and attention were directed at the General Assembly (GA) held in Miraflores de la Sierra.
This has been an important event for our organisation since, for the first time, it included a representative of the Fellowship; it presented our new Spanish team and gave the chance for community building during the social event, but more importantly, it put in place our new Executive Team!
Read on to get to know them!

FSFE participates at "LinuxTag 2009", Berlin, 24-27 June
We participated with a booth at the "LinuxTag", in Berlin, as in the years before. The event took place at Berlin's Expo Center from 24-27 June, and attracted about 10,000 visitors interested in Free Software at all kind of levels, 135 exhibitors and about 300 speakers. This year, our booth was coordinated by Lena Simon and Matthias Kirschner with the valuable help of 12 volunteers, who manned it over the four days event. This year our booth included some novelties such as brand new pdfreaders.org leaflets, an introductory comic strip to the Fellowship and the alpha version of a booth game named "GNUstav the GNU". Read more about it on Matthias' and Torsten's blog posts:
Social event and presentation of Spanish team, Miraflores de la Sierra, Spain, 20 June
On Saturday 20 June, after a public presentation of our Spanish team, all General Assembly (GA) members, Fellows and friends were invited to the "compile your own"-Cocktail-Party. Roughly 30 people adapted the four basic principles of Free Software to the art of cocktail mixing. The raw materials were deployed at La Cristalera and the party people were provided with the source code of various cocktails. This social event was a valuable chance for community building and strengthen of personal ties amongst colleagues and friends.
The account from the first Fellowship representative at the GA
Torsten Grote is the first Fellow elected to represent the Fellowship at FSFE's GA. In Miraflores de la Sierra, he had the chance to participate in high level decision-making process within the organisation. He has already reported with an e-mail to all Fellows, his views on the experience. Torsten said, "I was surprised how much influence I had on the decisions that were made". He continues "My concerns and proposals were not treated differently from the ones of any other member. This way I had considerable influence on all the decisions made and was able to check if the executive team does and will do its job properly." Torsten will keep his blog up to date to include more coverage on the GA. Don't miss it!
Two year Executive Summary (2007-2009)
In preparation of the General Assembly (GA) of this year, Georg Greve, former FSFE's President, drafted the biennial executive summary on the work of the organisation, which is now available on-line. The document summarises the cornerstone activities in various areas such as the Microsoft Antitrust Case, open standards, the United Nations and the legal work of the Freedom Task Force. The Executive Summary is a good resource to understand the current changes and further directions of our organisation.
Fellowship meeting in Berlin, 11 June
The Fellowship group of Berlin met on 11 June in the Newthinking Store at Tucholskystraße 48. At the meeting, Sabine Stengel from Cartogis gave a talk about OpenStreetMap, which was followed by an inspiring discussion. The preparation for the LinuxTag was another main topic of the evening. Torsten answered Fellows' questions about his new role as representative at the GA. About 25 Fellows and interested guests participated in the two hours official meeting, and also joined for a more informal social gathering at the pub.
It's time for the community to take charge of its brand
As the terms "Free Software" and "Open Source" are becoming more and more mainstream we are seeing many companies that want to 'jump on the bandwagon', branding anything they produce as Free or Open Source Software. However, it often happens that the mixed models they want to sell are far from what we would call Free Software. Georg published a concise post with the title "It's time for the community to take charge of its brand", which focuses on current corporate practices of mixing models and depriving the community of their meaning and understanding of Free Software.
In the spotlight
The new Executive Team appointed at FSFE's General Assembly 2009
Our yearly GA meeting was held in Miraflores de la Sierra, Spain, on 19-21 June. It brought about a lot of changes. Torsten in the role of first Fellowship's representative was there, our Spanish team, who hosted and organised the meeting, was formally presented and, most exciting, the new Executive Team was deliberated upon and formally set it up.
Karsten Gerloff, Fernanda Weiden, Christian Holz, Adrian de Groot, Matthias Kirschner and Reinhard Müller are the people who will lead FSFE for the coming years. They are, respectively, our new President, Vice-President, Executive Director, FTF coordinator, Fellowship coordinator and Financial Officer. Georg Greve, who founded the organisation together with others and chaired it during the past eight years says about the new team: "There is no doubt in my mind that these extraordinary people are a dream team to ensure both continuity and change towards a better, larger, and more successful FSFE."
The new Executive Team is well aware of the capabilities of the organisation and will work to strengthen it even further. Karsten, FSFE's new President, says: "Georg Greve and his team have done splendid work over the past eight years, building FSFE out of nothing into an organisation that is highly respected and trusted as an expert group on Free Software, and as a reliable partner in policy making and negotiations." Fernanda, FSFE's Vice-President, continues: "The people in this organisation have a deep understanding not only of technology itself, but also of its social and political aspects. Together, we can continue to develop cutting-edge thinking on how we as a society handle knowledge, and how we can best make the most of technology."
More information about the new team and how to contact them can be found here:

It happened in the past
Introducing the translators team
The international reach of our organisation demands that our information and documents are available in as many languages as possible. Five years ago we decided to give space for a flexible, responsive, and well coordinated translator team to grow. The decision has paid off extremely well. As of today, most of the content on https://fsfe.org is available in 27 languages. Thanks to our volunteers for their excellent job!
Upcoming events
FSFE booth at RMLL Nantes, France, 07-11 July
The 10th RMLL, "Rencontre Mondial de Logiciel Libre" (LSM, Libre Software Meeting) is taking place at Nantes. Rainer Kersten will organise a FSFE booth there. RMLL is the most important Free Software event in France and some 5000 visitors are expected.
Whoever would like to come and help is highly welcome. To coordinate, please contact:
Fellowship Meeting in Berlin, 09 July
The local Berlin Fellowship group will meet on 9 July at 7.30 pm at the Newthinking Store, in Tucholskystraße 48. This time there will be a discussion with representatives from political party youth organisations about Free Software. As always, guests are welcome to join.

A cancer diagnosis is no longer a death sentence for many people who get one.
The ranks of American cancer survivors are growing, and will increase from 13.7 million in January 2012 to nearly 18 million in January 2022, according to a report from the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute.
Though an aging and growing population helps explain why more people are surviving cancer, the study says that improvements in treatment and more people getting screened also play a part. (Not all screening is necessarily a good idea for everyone, though, as we've reported.)
The study was published this week in the journal CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians.
Elizabeth Ward, a national vice president at the American Cancer Society, said that the results are an estimation based on current trends in cancer survival. "But it's conceivable that if there is a major breakthrough in survival rate for one of these cancers, that in fact the picture in 2022 will look different," she tells Shots.
The study reports that in 2012, male survivors were most likely to have had prostate cancer, colon and rectal cancer, and melanoma; most common among female survivors were breast, uterine, and colon and rectal cancers. The American Cancer Society predicts that nearly all of those will be the most commons cancers of survivors in 2022, too.
"The reasons that some cancers are more common in survivors than they are in newly diagnosed patients is that the common cancers among survivors are typically ones that are fairly common in the population of new diagnosis," Ward said, "but they are also cancers that have a fairly high survival rate."
Ward said that although the study provides important data for the future of surviving cancer, there are still issues that are difficult to represent in charts and percentages. Many survivors struggle to live a normal life after treatment, she said.
"There needs to be more work on understanding more fully both the physical and emotional and social needs of cancer survivors," Ward said, "and physical rehabilitation—exercise interventions, to help regain ability to live daily life after treatment being immobile for treatment for a long period of time—regaining previous level of physical activity."
Cancer survivors must also be vigilant in the continuation of cancer screenings and preventative health, Ward said. "[This includes] dietary and physical activity recommendations and avoiding the use of tobacco because in some cases, it actually seems to have an influence on cancer prognosis, but it's also very helpful in avoiding other cancers and chronic diseases throughout life," she says.

Consider replacing your pillow or mattress.
Do you wake up with aches and pains? It could be time to purchase a new mattress or pillow. The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) recommends finding a mattress that evenly supports your whole body. There should be no gaps between you and the mattress when you lie down. When choosing a pillow, select one that supports your head and neck in alignment with the rest of the spine, whether you sleep on your side or back. Keep in mind that what works for your partner may not work for you— there isn't one mattress or pillow that fits everyone. Simple adjustments, such as adding foam padding, can help tremendously.
Re-evaluate your posture at work.
Americans spend an average of 44 hours at work every week— often behind a desk. To avoid poor posture that can lead to tension, back pain, and joint problems such as carpal tunnel syndrome, check that your chair is the right size and adjusted correctly, says the ACA. Do your feet rest comfortably on the ground? Does the chair offer lumbar support? Are you able to tilt or swivel easily while performing tasks at your desk? Also, be sure you have adequate light (so that you aren't straining to see documents or a computer screen), adjust your computer monitor so that it is at eye level, and wear a headset for longer telephone conversations. And don't forget to take frequent breaks and stretch throughout the day.
Learn how to lift correctly.
Many back injuries are caused by improper lifting of items such as luggage, backpacks or briefcases, storage boxes, or even groceries. But knowing how to lift properly can prevent serious injury. First and foremost, don't bend from the waist. Keep your back straight, and squat to reach the item. Then, keep it close to your body as you lift, and avoid twisting motions. When traveling, check all bags that weigh more than 10 percent of your body weight.
Eat right and exercise well.
Eating a balanced diet and getting regular exercise helps your body stay toned and tension-free— and promotes a healthy weight and a happier spine. Smart exercise and a good diet can also prevent osteoporosis, which affects over 20 million American women. To start, the ACA recommends eating out at restaurants less (to reduce the amount of unhealthful fats and sugars you consume) and adding more fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to your diet. Aim for a minimum of 20 to 30 minutes of exercise, three or four days a week.

Some Varieties of Disproof
30 comments:
- Unknown said...
Evidence is something that contributes to knowledge of what happened.
Proof is evidence that is sufficient to demonstrate the certainty (or truth) of something.
(Copi 28, Essentials of Logic)
Evidence is something that may lead to proof. It may not.
A posteriori considerations depend on their probability and on their respective explanatory power therefore they are not conclusive evidence
The criteria for judging inductive arguments are guidelines for judging the relative strength of an inductive argument, they generally do not give you grounds for claiming conclusively that an argument is acceptable. (Copi 334)

Right. Exactly.
- January 2, 2013 at 10:25 AM

Often discussions I have with Christians over their claimed certainty of knowledge will center on the words "know", "believe", and "trust". I strongly doubt that most Christians believe, have faith in, or trust what they claim is true. I use this thought experiment as an illustration:
You lose control of a car driving down an icy street, the car slams into a tree, crushing the frame, only the passenger door is operable. You are trapped. You are suddenly seized by a tremendous pain in your chest that radiates down the left arm. Still conscious, you recognize that there are just a few minutes to get aid to prevent death. You are relieved as you see two people approaching, the first to get to the car is a man waving a Bible who gets in the passenger seat and urges you to pray with him, citing chapter and verse, Matthew 21:22, "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." You begin to pray. The second person arrives, a women carrying a portable defibrillator. Do you demand that the bible-waver get out of the car and make room for the women? I argue that the person you turn to for aid reveals your knowledge, faith, and trust. - January 3, 2013 at 5:49 AM

Interesting post. I agreed with the paragraph saying "it is a mistake to reserve "proof" for only indefeasibly certain matters." As it turns out, I am currently in the process of writing a booklet titled "Does science prove God exists?"
In the introduction I note that we have two types of courts in the US. One is the criminal court system and one is the civil court system. The instructions to the jury in each court are quite different. A higher level of proof is required to convict a man of a crime than to decide between to litigants in a civil case.
In a criminal court it is "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" and in a civil court it is "preponderance of evidence" or "greater weight of evidence."
It makes perfect sense to me to use preponderance of evidence as the standard when deciding on the existence of God.
By the way, it was the science evidence that convinced atheist philosopher Anthony Flew that God existed. - January 3, 2013 at 9:11 AM
- Ron Cram said...
Interesting story. If I was the man having the heart attack, I would trust the man with the Bible to get out of the way since the answer to his and my prayer had arrived. - January 3, 2013 at 9:13 AM
- Unknown said...
Using the search engine at www.infidels.org for Antony Flew gives us a good idea of what Flew's conversation actually is all about. I am afraid that due to your Christian apologists, you have missed characterized the Flew argument.
Nick Covington:
"All over the Internet, Christian apologists have been ecstatic about "converting" long time atheist Antony Flew to belief in God. Of course, Flew only believes in some vague sort of intelligent creator, and he is still insistent that there is no afterlife and that all so-called revealed religions are false. Nevertheless, Christian Apologists such as Roy Varghese and Lee Strobel are over the moon about Flew's change of heart. Perhaps they think it adds credibility to their beliefs."
Raymond Bradle"
"On the one hand, you have been persuaded by some of the stuff you've recently read that naturalistic explanations of apparent design in the universe just aren't credible. In particular, you now subscribe to the idea that there are unbridgeable gaps in evolutionary history, gaps such as those alleged to exist between nonliving and living matter. And since, on your view, it is "inordinately difficult" to give a naturalistic explanation of the origins of living organisms, you conclude that only some nonnaturalistic explanation will suffice, i.e., that only the intervention of some sort of supernatural agent, to be called "God," can fill these gaps." - January 3, 2013 at 12:25 PM
- Unknown said...
If you are on trial for murder and a conviction is a death sentence, do you want a "preponderance of evidence"?
Dr. McCormick has characterized the sliding scale fallacy.
If God is the ultimate concern or the infinite reality and through is divine providence is the creator and savior, I want proof beyond reasonable doubt.
- January 3, 2013 at 12:39 PM
- Ron Cram said...
I have actually read Anthony Flew's new book "There is a God." I know the evidence he is looking at and the preponderance of evidence is on the side of God's existence. I don't think this is well understood yet and that is why I am writing the booklet.
You are correct that Flew did not become a Christian. At the time he and Roy Varghese wrote the book, Flew was a deist. However, Flew did speak very highly of Christianity in the book. I don't have the book in front of me or I would quote a few sentences. I would like to think Flew became a Christian prior to his death but I don't have any evidence of that.
But Flew's book is quite good. He talks about what he used to believe and why he changed his mind.
To answer your question, if I was up for murder I would certainly want the higher standard of proof without reasonable doubt.
Regarding the existence of God - If you understand probability theory as Pascal did - then you would certainly want preponderance of evidence. As I understand it, Matt is also arguing for preponderance of evidence or something roughly equivalent.
- January 3, 2013 at 1:16 PM

Without getting into the mess of Bayes Theorem, Pascal would probably accept the following argument from probability:
Let o be a statement to the effect the cosmos is ordered in a certain way. The conclusion, g, asserts the existence of a creator-god. pr(g|o) > pr(!g|o). The fact that pr(o|g) is high does not necessarily mean that pr(g|o) is high. There is no reason to believe(inverse probability) pr(g) > pr(!g) in fact it would be the other way around. So a priori, it is much more likely that there is no creator.
P(A|B) = P(A given B) = we know B occurred what is the probability that A occurred
The probability of god(g) based on the background information (k), where k is evidence without proof is less that 50% pr(g k) < .5
- January 3, 2013 at 2:44 PM
- Ron Cram said...
No. Pascal would not accept that argument, especially not in today's world. Pascal was not approving of the deductive arguments for God but he was very supportive of evidences for God. And the number and quality of evidence for God from science is much, much greater than in Pascal's day. - January 3, 2013 at 4:01 PM
- Matt McCormick said...
I'm never quite sure what the point of the name dropping of famous theists, or famous atheists who converted is supposed to accomplish. Is the argument supposed to be something like, "1. If X famous atheist converted, then so should McCormick. 2. Flew converted. 3. therefore, so should McCormick?" It's always possible to find outliers on the curve, of course. Famous Harvard psychiatrist John Mack was convinced that alien abductions of humans were real. Linus Pauling became convinced that mega doses of vitamin C could cure all sorts of ailments. Isaac Newton advocated astrology and alchemy.
But in general, education and intelligence are inversely correlated with religiousness. That is, as intelligence and education go up, religiousness drops off. What matters in science and academics is when an informed, broad based consensus develops in a relevant field of experts. Recent polling of professional philosophers shows the wide majority of them as atheists. The vast majority of the world's best scientists are atheists. So what is the believer supposed to make of this puzzling part of the theist's apologetic playbook? - January 3, 2013 at 8:55 PM
- Rick Mueller said...
Ron Cram - " since the answer to his and my prayer had arrived."
Not quite, per the scenario, the women with the AED was already there. You would have to propose that God "answers" prayers that haven't been prayed yet. - January 4, 2013 at 2:35 AM

But you're talking about people in our modern western world. The prevailing modern western metaphysic shapes our beliefs about the world. Moreover it matters not at all that the wide majority of professional philosophers are atheists, reject a belife in a "life after death", etc. What matters is the arguments they advance to support their positions. And in my experience their arguments almost inevitably attack the weakest concepts of a "god". It is not therefore surprising that they are atheists! - January 4, 2013 at 6:06 AM

"Furthermore, the description needs to it needs to be sufficiently superlative to warrant the "God" label," and, one would hope, it would have some semblance to the supernatural being that billions of traditional believers have advocated for centuries".
I'm sure you would like that. It's very easy to attack the beliefs of people who have never entertained a philosophical thought in their lives. Somewhat more difficult to attack sophisticated concepts of "God", but which might still be reasonably labelled "God", as advocated by intellectuals.

"A brief note about proof: Many people who haven't reflected on the topic much have the sense that we should reserve the term "proof" only for those cases where we have the most substantial level of deductive certainty".
Well that's simply what the word "proof" means. So it makes no difference how much we have reflected on the topic (and I have done so a lot).
"And many of the same people who feel this way about proof have the same impulse about "knowledge." We only know those things, they say, that we can prove. No other less certain matters should be called knowledge".
Indeed many people do. However I don't.
"For a number of reasons, I think it is a mistake to reserve "proof" for only indefeasibly certain matters. First, if we raise the bar on "proof" this high, then there remains little or nothing that we know".
Here you conflate proof and knowledge. Just because we cannot prove something doesn't mean to say we lack knowledge. - January 4, 2013 at 6:12 AM

No, that is not the argument. The argument is that Flew knew all of the arguments used here to disprove the existence of God. He fact he helped formulate some of them. But these deductive arguments ultimately failed, just like they always have through history. It took about 20 years for Flew to change his mind, but he made a commitment to follow the evidence wherever it led. Eventually Flew found the evidence from science supporting God's existence more compelling. Therefore McCormick should drop his attempts to prove or disprove God from deductive argument and make a commitment to follow the evidence wherever it leads.

I'll make a few comments interspersed:
"Famous Harvard psychiatrist John Mack was convinced that alien abductions of humans were real."
Sorry. can't comment on this one as I don't know the story.
"Linus Pauling became convinced that mega doses of vitamin C could cure all sorts of ailments."
This is quite true. Our knowledge of science and medicine is increasing all the time. Pauling was on the right track. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and antioxidants have powerful natural healing abilities. Different organs benefit from different types of antioxidants. The antioxidants in green tea are especially good for the lungs. The antioxidants in coffee are especially good for the colon, etc. There are two keys to living a long life - calorie restriction and a high level of antioxidants in your body.
"Isaac Newton advocated astrology and alchemy."
This is also true. I've never understood his attraction to astrology but his interest in alchemy is consistent with the level of scientific knowledge in his day. The truth is that lead and gold are made in the same way, inside stars. In Newton's day, they did not understand the process like we do today.
"But in general, education and intelligence are inversely correlated with religiousness. That is, as intelligence and education go up, religiousness drops off.

So what is the believer supposed to make of this puzzling part of the theist's apologetic playbook?"
Your statements here are not quite correct. The percentage of scientists who believe in God today is roughly the same as 100 years ago. It is true that polling shows the more educated people are, the less likely they are to be religious - but the reason has more to do with our education system than the quality of the evidence. Go to any major university and you are far more likely to find more atheists in the philosophy department than you are in the physics department or the mathematics department.
Regarding the apologists playbook, my guess is that the goal is to get people to agree to look at the evidence. Of course, it is not possible to argue anyone into the kingdom of God. Even if the person is willing to follow the evidence where it leads, as Anthony Flew did, that does not mean the person will bow the knee to the Creator. There is always a choice involved in faith. The apologist's goal (at least my goal) is to let people know it is not unreasonable to believe in God. - January 4, 2013 at 8:48 AM
- Unknown said...
I think you are being hypocritical by stating "my goal is to let people know it is not unreasonable to believe in God", but then try to convert atheist to your belief system and arguing about the preponderance of evidence.
Professor Kirby, who is a secular humanist, thinks theist do have an epistemic right to their beliefs. If we take William James' 'Will to Believe", Richard Taylor on Faith, Wittgenstein's fideism, Plantinga on reformed epistemology seriously then Christians can not be considered insane.
Instead of arguing about how philosophers have failed to prove the negative, you should be writing a justification of knowledge for Feelings (religious experience), Facts (natural theology) and Faith.

PS: Students of philosophy engage in epistemic discourse in an analytical approach to the writings, for instance, W.K. Clifford "The Ethics of Belief" versus William James "The Will to Believe".
Apologetics (from the Greek, a defense), which assume the premise "God exists" does not engage in such activity. To reiterate, if you are posting to a philosophers website, you should be more philosophical.

There is nothing hypocritical in my stance or actions. My goal is to let people know belief in God is reasonable. In order to convince this, I have two areas of activity. First, I have to show the errors in the deductive arguments against God's existence. Second, I need to explain the positive evidence for God's existence from science. - January 4, 2013 at 11:27 AM

Here is a deductive disproof of Aquinas' 3rd and 4th ways from Summa Theologia:
1)The universe exist only contingently.
2)If anything exists contingently, something must exists necessarily.
3)Something exist necessarily.
There is no grounds for saying (3) is an Omni-God or a personal being with moral perfection. This says nothing about just one being. It could be some cosmic force gravity.
A flaw in Aquinas thinking is in that he assumes that what exists contingently cannot exist through all time.
According to Hume, a cause must precede its effect. It is clearly impossible for anything to cause itself. For to cause itself, it would have to precede itself.
4)Existence is not a predicate (Kant).
5)Existential statements are second order.
6)No existential statements can be logically necessary.
7)A necessary non contingent grounding of contingency logically can not be an Omni-God

Nice work around.
However, quoting you "I have to show the errors in the deductive arguments against God's existence." and "I have already conceded that any attempt to prove God through deductive reasoning is doomed to failure".
Do you or do you not have to show why a deductive argument is a failure?
I maintain pseudoscience = df. "trying to explain the positive evidence for God's existence from science".
Let Ta = absolute start of time or df. T = 0.
Let Tp = Planck time = 6.4x10E-44 seconds.
In contemporary physical science there is no first instance Ta. In other words the universe is half-open in the earlier direction prior toTp. It is illogical to instantiate an archetype supernatural being, i.e. "god of the gaps", because such an entity would be eternal and therefore a potential infinity (Aristotle) before Tp.
If you think that your pseudoscience includes an anthropic principle and God has purposely created a "Goldilocks zone", Dr. Stenger and Dr. Krause have knocked that idea out of the ball park.
- January 4, 2013 at 8:23 PM
- Ron Cram said...
Well, I see you are at least familiar with some of the arguments regarding the Big Bang. This is a start.
Regarding the start of time, it is true that physicists and mathematicians can model the early universe mathematically going back in time to just after the Big Bang. They can model to t > 0 (about one trillionth of a second after the Big Bang), but they cannot model t = 0. The reason is the math breaks down due to infinities. But this does not mean that t = 0 (the start of time) did not happen. Logic and the laws of physics can take us back further than mathematics alone.
When we say we can only model to t > 0, someone may think t > 0 means a singularity that could remain static for an indefinite period. But the laws of physics say if something exists that is immensely hot and dense, it would immediately begin to expand and cool.
If someone, for atheological reasons for example, wanted to say that t = 0 never existed, he would have to exchange the miracle of creation for two miracles which are even more improbable. Instead of God creating the universe from nothing, you would have to say that a stable, non-expanding singularity existed in eternity past (the first miracle) and that for no reason at all suddenly lost its ability to remain hot and dense and began to expand and cool without any cause (the second miracle).
As you can probably tell, I don't have enough faith to believe the second scenario. Logic demands the t = 0 happened.
The Goldilocks Zone is only one small part of the fine-tuned universe argument from science. Stenger has written a book with lots of arm waving on the fine-tuned universe, but he only deals with a few of the observations of the fine-tuned universe and there are hundreds of them. More importantly, they are interconnected. This is a point Stenger evidently missed or did not understand. His argument is mainly about the isotopes of carbon. He suggests if one parameter was changed to reduce the amount of carbon in the universe that you could change another parameter and get the carbon back. The problem is that changes other parameters causes other problems. A full refutation of Stenger will be forthcoming. - January 5, 2013 at 2:32 PM

I have stated that I am a student of Philosophy with enough units for a minor. I am a retired EE(electrical engineer) with a masters degree.
I would like to know what qualifications you have, so you can be taken seriously, in challenging the likes of Dr. McCormick, Dr. Stenger, Dr. Krause, Dr. Drange, Dr. Rowe, Dr. Martin, et al?
You just proved that you are a pseudosciencist. A real sciencist does try to explain the unknown by instantiating an archetype supernatural being that peforms miracles.
David Hume's (1711-1776) Section X in his essay An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding regarding claims that miracles can never be justified. Hume's definition of a miracle is "a violation of the laws of nature". Swinburne agrees with Hume and states a miracle is "a transgression of a law of nature by a particular volition of the Deity or by the interposition of some invisible agent".
Here is Hume's argument:
1. Laws of nature are a posteriori considerations.
"all men must die…fire consumes wood…these events are found to be agreeable to the laws of nature"
2. Our experiences are very strong in support of natural laws.
"Conclusions as are founded on an infallible experience, he expects the event with the last degree of assurance, and regards his past experience as full proof"
3. A miracle is a violation of nature.
4. By definition, this is a breach of highly probable rules of the universe.
5. Therefore, it is not justifiable to believe that a miracle has occurred.
The FIRST problem is you have not established that a Deity or some invisible agent is a metaphysical reality.
The SECOND problem as stated in Dr. Matt's book in chapter 9 "Would God do Miracles?"
The THIRD problem I state as :
1) If there is a God, For an infinite time Tp₋ₓ God does not have the will to create, because God is perfection, and would not have needs or wants.
2) If there is a God, At some point in the infinite past of nothingness, God has the will to create (Why)?
3) If there is a God, Given E=mc², how can God bring about energy or matter out of nothing?
You understand that Georges Lemaitre a Belgian priest is responsible for proposing the Big Bang. The Pope heralded it as proof of Genesis, and then had to retract because it was science not theological.

@ Ron Crumb
thought experiments are our thoughts now about a possibility at another time. The woman with the AED is only potential aid (at the moment your heart is still beating, you're conscious)and not a guarantee of continued life. Her potential outside or inside the car with life resuscitation is equally effective. As you revealed in your answer, you mentally adjust the probability of survival to human, not divine, direct aid. The prayer is answered, bible-waver depart, let's get on with some real solutions! Your trust in humans outweighs your trust in the divine. After the accident, should you live, the rationale that God answered your prayer would be typical thinking for the Christian. If the AED was never used for your survival the thought that it was divinely planned would, I propose, drop from the "God saved me" narrative altogether. - January 7, 2013 at 4:28 AM
- ST Mannew said...
You have misinterpreted your own scenario (example), and therefore missed the truth of the example.
"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." You begin to pray", and did believe that God would answer your prayer."
And then God did answer the prayer because,
"The second person arrives, a women carrying a portable defibrillator. Do you demand that the bible-waver get out of the car and make room for the women?"
No since, you wouldn't have to ask me to move, since I would willingly get out of the way, because I would have recognized the "women carrying a portable defibrillator" has the answer to the injured person's prayer, just as I did here.
"I argue that the person you turn to for aid reveals your knowledge, faith, and trust."
And so it did, and you were given a demonstration of that right here.
How that for a dumb Christian? - January 10, 2013 at 5:33 AM

"I have already conceded that any attempt to prove God through deductive reasoning is doomed to failure. My point is the same applies to any attempt to disprove God by deductive reasoning."
So, can we conclude that we just don't know, that no one knows and anyone claiming to have this knowledge is lying?

Meeting Your Needs,
Not Ours!
Spread Light,
Bring Joy!
What does good oral hygiene mean to you: Flashing a pearly-white smile? Having fresh smelling breath? Feeling that squeaky-clean sensation all around your teeth and tongue? All of these are important indicators about the state of your oral health — and they're often the first thing people notice when they meet you. But getting your teeth, gums and mouth really clean, and maintaining that healthy state throughout the day (and in the months between professional dental cleanings) can be challenging.
Of course, there's much more to oral hygiene than just a bright smile. Take tooth decay, for example: Despite all our efforts, it's still the single most common chronic disease of childhood, affecting two-thirds of U.S. kids aged 12-19. It is 5 times more common than asthma, 7 times more common than hay fever — and it's almost totally preventable. Several other diseases commonly affect the mouth, including periodontitis (gum disease), which, if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss and possibly systemic (whole-body) inflammation.
In many ways, the health of the mouth mirrors the health of the body. Diseases in other parts of the body often cause symptoms we can observe in the mouth; likewise, oral maladies (like tooth loss) not only reduce an individual's quality of life, but may also lead to problems in other areas. That's another reason why maintaining good oral hygiene is so important.
Regular dental visits play a critical role in maintaining your oral health — not only to find and remedy any problems with teeth or gums, but also to assess the general condition of your oral health, point out potential trouble spots, and offer suggestions for preventive care. In between visits, the best way to keep your teeth clean and free of disease, your gums pink and healthy, and your breath fresh, is a program of daily oral hygiene. Your regular routine should include the following:
A major goal of modern dentistry is to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. By following a conscientious program of oral hygiene, you have the best chance at making this goal a reality.

Spring is on the horizon and we couldn't be more excited!
Chirping birds, blooming flowers, and warmer weather are just a few of the things we look forward to when spring comes around. We have to admit though, there is one thing about the season that's not particularly appealing, and that's allergies.
What Your Eyes Can Expect This Spring
The American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology states that approximately 50 million Americans suffer from seasonal allergies. Many of you have experienced it… you walk outside to enjoy the fresh air of a new spring day, only to find yourself sneezing and congested soon after. Not only that, but your eyes suffer too! If you struggle with allergies, your eyes might experience the following symptoms:
- Redness
- Swelling around the eyelids
- Sensitivity to light
- Itchiness
- Tearing, or watery discharge
We know that nothing can ruin your spring fever quite like an allergy attack, so read on to find out ways to protect yourself this season!
Tips To Help You Survive Allergy Season
The best way to treat allergies is prevention. Here are some tips to protect your eyes when seasonal allergies strike!
Avoid Allergens
This goes without saying. Be aware of the pollen count in your area and try to stay indoors when pollen counts are at their highest, usually mid-morning and early evening. Keep your windows closed and use air conditioning at home and in your car. If you have to go outdoors, wear wraparound sunglasses to keep pollen out of your eyes.
Try Home Remedies
Applying a cold compress to your eyes can bring a surprising amount of relief. This reduces eye itchiness and swelling. You should also remove your contacts if you feel your allergies are getting the best of you. Allergens can get trapped in between your contact lenses and the surface of your eye, causing constant irritation.
Use Over-The-Counter Medication
Artificial tears can help wash out any allergens in your eyes, so keep these on hand. You can also use over-the-counter allergy eye drops or oral antihistamines. If you feel that these aren't helping you, come into our office and we can write you a prescription for stronger medication that may provide more relief.
To get a more in-depth look at what causes those pesky allergies and what you can do to avoid them, check out the video below!
Don't Let Allergies Get The Best Of You
We know how difficult spring can be for some of our patients because of allergies. We want you to know that we're here for you!
Keep in mind that many eye infections can mimic the symptoms of eye allergies. So if you've never had seasonal allergies and suddenly experience them or you're simply unsure, come get your eyes checked. We're here to get you through allergy season with a smile on your face!

"This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends – they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything – they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them – actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."
