[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The statement is that believers either:
1) believe innbiblical inerrancy
Or
2) only existence of a god can explain the "cosmos" (that can mean the universe or an orderly and harmonious system or univers, but whatever).

So your universal set of believers consists of groups for which at least one of these statements is 
true.

But (1) is a distinct subset of believers.  The majority of mainstream protestants and a vast majority of catholics don't consider the bible the literal word of god.

That leaves (2) to take up the slack. But, for example, apatheistic believers don't think a deity is necessary and that natural laws are sufficient to explain the cosmic origin and evolution. These are obviously not in the inerrancy camp.

The simplistic characterization is naive and uninformed. 
It hurts your arguments. You can do better.

TLDR - you don't want to follow any of the established tenets of your faith - presumably Christianity - so you've made up your own that you follow.

Like other belief systems, PPP wants you to believe like him because he says so.  [/quote]

Some belief systems are not proselytizing ones. In fact, some dgaf what others believe and have no interest in converting others. Different paths, dude or dudette. Shalom.[/quote]

Some belief systems don't proselytize, but many do.  They gaf what others believe.  Shalom.[/quote]

I presume you are a different PP than the one who wrote "like other belief systems PPP  wants you to believe like him"? Or is this just the weave?

Just don't make absolute statements. Leave your weave room from the start.

There is absolutely no God[/quote]
