“ad hominum”, according to the dictionary term , is not a fallacy. You appeal to faith every day in ordinary every day living. You refuse to define faith according to your personal opinion, so I cannot have a discussion with you until we have an agreement as to what faith is. It’s not my fault you refuse to dialogue, and come up with such a redundant non-response as this. I would be happy to explain what Catholic faith is, and what it is not. I am certain you haven’t a clue because your atheist cult leader Richard Carrier doesn’t have a clue.
.

Noun ad hominem (ad hominems)

1. a logical fallacy, arguing that an idea or concept is wrong because its proponent is flawed
2. an attempt to argue against an opponent's idea by discrediting the opponent himself
3. a personal attack

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Ad_hominum <<that is called posting your source


look at the bold type in your quote come on.... the one right there

have you researched Carrier? do you know his background? or are you making a presumtion based on your bias agianst atheists/naturalists?

because if you did or did not reasearch his back ground and made that comment...
that is an ad hominem fallacy right there have a nice day


P.S. I worship no man, nor woman. I do not worship myself, nor do I worship money, I do not worship period.

I will say I am faithless (in any god or supernatural being)


You could say I have faith in my driving abilities and I have faith in my marriage and such like that but that is a different faith they are not one in the same.
