Yeah, of course you can believe in something you're told even though you can't perceive it (or any kind of evidence proving it) with any of your senses... WITHOUT USING YOUR IMAGINATION.

yep if it's not true, then it's false.
You can either be alive or not. You can either be pregnant or not.
Now if we find a new ambiguous subject that doesn't fit either classification, then we're clearly not evaluating it properly and need to add a new possibility specifically for that case.
For example, you can classify organisms as either male or female. But there are also creatures that have reproductive organs normally associated with both male and female sexes.
Are they male and female at the same time? Nope, they are hermaphrodites.
Now in the subject of religion, it's not difficult to figure out they're just scams. It's pretty difficult to admit you've been caught by a scam though.

So in the end, it still comes to faith. All sides come together through the route of imagination. No matter which view point you represent, it's up to your imagination to make up theories and justifications for your own viewpoint. And that's why the debates go nowhere.
Actually things can be only true of false.
The debate goes nowhere when people use the 'cow-is-table' logic (AKA inductive reasoning), evaluating their proposition by making the state of a few individual subjects summarize the state of the whole set.
"Tables have four legs; cows have four legs; therefore tables must be cows. "

Warp, faith is not based on evidence. It's based on imagination.
How are we supposed to debate imagination?

On the risk of stating the obvious...
① Anyone likes resting, whether they're weary or not. When you wake up at morning, you are supposedly very refreshed and not weary in any way (at least if you slept well). In that situation, which scenery would you more like to observe, as you open the curtains: a busy street with chaotic traffic and honking, or this one? Which one would refresh you, despite you being not weary in any way? That's what God did: On the seventh day he rested (as in defense may rest in a courtroom), and observed everything he had created, which was good. And he set us an example. I don't see a contradiction here. (Tangential: The Finnish translation uses, rather than "was refreshed", a word which simultaneously means to breathe and something to do with his spirit/soul. The original Hebrew text shares this dual meaning, except stronger. However, I found this claim of contradiction perfectly debunkable without such detailed study.)
I would ask for a more detached interpretation.
'Rest' is indeed ambiguous but I don't recall any other part of the text mentioning God randomly resting other then after the creation of the world. The obvious conclusion here is that he is tired after all the work.
See Genesis 2:2 and tell me I'm wrong.
So God WAS tired. Cool story bro.
Bisqwit wrote:
② Logical argument: All things being possible does not mean all things do happen. Literally minded argument: The verse does not say that Lord was with Judah when he tried to drive out the inhabitants of the valley; only that He was with him when drave out the inhabitants of the mountain. The wording in the Finnish version makes this more obvious than the somewhat ambiguous English version ("for he was not able" rather than "but could not"). However, a relationship to God is not an open license to do-what-you-damn-please and he will bless you and you will succeed. It is always with a notion of "as long as you stick to my plans" (which, as Isaiah 55:8 puts it, are completely alien to men's plans). Which, cynically taken, really makes for a fantastic fatalistic counter-argument to almost any argument about God's actions.
Yes, the verse does not say that Lord was with Judah when he tried to drive out the inhabitants of the valley but it says "could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron".
Even though I agree that there could exist some other reason, it's not mentioned. And I'm not making nothing up. This isn't a battle of imaginations.

OK I was saving this one for a special moment because I think it's very funny
Isaiah 40:28
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding
It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed
Well, SOMEONE didn't know about that...
Also:
Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
And the Lord was with Judah, and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
:(

The bible is the ultimate truth. Except the parts I don't like.
New Testament is Bible v2.0. They patched some bugs but then those new fixes ended up breaking other stuff. That's why there's still people reliying on old Bible v1.0 or even other unnoficial branches.
