My point about axioms is that they are not arbitrary, nor subjectively determined in any sense. You wrote that an axiom is: “an arbitrary supposition, an a priori absolute law, a personally decided starting point that is entirely yours and not universal, to your taste and not to everyone’s taste. This is pure solipsism, which is by definition narcissistic: me, myself and I.”

Now, now.

when one sets one’s self up as

GOD OF THE PSEUDO-INTELLECTUALIZATIONS

about the existence of God and the lack of Biblical support for said God . . .

one arbitrarily defines and describes the rules under which one wishes to pontificate under.

And if, at any time, said rules prove inconvenient or uncomfortable, one just changes them—even if in mid-stream.

Then one ?intellectually” brow-beats any protest into silence or disgust or bewilderment or . . .
