Let's assume for a moment life is a math quiz, A=7, B, and C, are either the right answer or your best effort.

Assuming the answers to life are based on math, do you think you would pass by always answering 7?

1+5=7
45+67=7
22200+550=7
55x12=7
66+1=7
552+3234567=7
3388288191928238347747473838x 334455238298938928398932839289=7

In case you didn't know, 7 is actually God, and the problems are the unexplained phenomenon.

There are always going problems you will never solve, that's just apart of life. There is an inherent arrogance in asserting the answer to every question without an effort in discovery. You have no intention of discovering the truth, simply because it's what you faithfully accept. If life truly were a test, I couldn't imagine the test creator making the answer to every question the same thing. Otherwise it'd be too easy..

Terrible analogy. This would mean that god IS the answer to MANY problems (infinite amount of them, actually). 3 + 4 = 7. 14 / 2 = 7. So on.

It's really more simplistic than that, which would be the point of any analogy.

Why does the earth go around the sun: God
Why is my left foot bigger than my right: God
Why am I here: God
Why did I lose that race: God

I appreciate the troll attempt and the post boost. Have a good night.

Which must put you below the common house cat, I feel like this response is easily the dumbest, most Ill-conceived sentence I have ever witnessed.

My point was to illustrate to you (who seems to be mathematically challenged) that there are an infinite number of cases where 7 is NOT the answer, but also an infinite number of cases where 7 IS the answer. Infinity over infinity is indeterminate, so who are you to say anyone is wrong?

The only arrogance and trolling here is from you.

This is an attempt at moving the goal post.. It's not a logical response. You change the question to fit the answer.. Good luck passing bro.

We don't know, because infinity/infinity = indeterminate. It's possible that you could pass by only answering 7.

Again, assumptions and apologetics. The nature of the analogy is simple to grasp, it's the point of discovering the answer and not the ignorant assumption that the answer is always the same..

I appreciate the troll attempt, and I appreciate the argument from the devils perspective, moving the goal post isn't going to debunk the point.
