Denial is not a river in Egypt. As usual you twist the response to fit your deceit. I will post the sentence you spewed that is the fallacy of the undistributed middle:

"So everyone you know in daily life has become a believer in Christ, right?" vladimir998

The sentence you responded so smartassy at was “If someone knows Christ, their lives will show it and people will see it.” That is in no way an error. The presence of God's Spirit within the once dead human spirit produces the behavior of a member of Christ's Family. In some it takes longer to surface than in others.

There was no fallacy in my statements.

You posted this:

“I will post the sentence you spewed that is the fallacy of the undistributed middle: “So everyone you know in daily life has become a believer in Christ, right?” vladimir998

But my comment was a perfectly logical one in response to metmom’s:

“If someone knows Christ, their lives will show it and people will see it.”

People might see a change in someone, but that does not guarantee that they will attribute this change to Christ, nor does it mean that they will concluded Christ is God, risen from the dead, the Messiah and so on. That was clearly what metmom was talking about: “A changed life is all the evidence an unbeliever needs to see in someone to know that the claims of Christ are true.”

Thus, my comment was perfectly logical based entirely on what metmom herself has said. There was no logical fallacy on my part at all.
