Some people are so used to using anti-concepts that they do not realize that their arguments make no sense. An anti-concept is any concepts that does not have a reference in reality and cannot be proven but one chooses to use it anyway, as if by merely using it the object becomes real. For example, one can use honesty as a concept because in reality we can distinguish people who are truthful from those who fake reality. But the concept theos or God is invented and does not refer to anything in reality or anything that can be proven to exist, like the magic flying carpet.

It's all in what is relative to each ones own perspective. 2000 years ago Christ was the post modernist. Religion, science even ideals all change over time, some good, some bad, some indifferent. Reality itself changes over time, if it didn't at some point all and everything would cease to exit. In the greater scheme of things does any of it really matter. What is post modern today is just tomorrows memories. If there really is a tomorrow!? Think about it. 99.99999% of all we deal with in life are anti - concepts that have no reference in "quote" reality.

You can't prove honesty. Honesty is a relative term.
What keeps you honest is big brother, video cameras, lie detectors.
If we had honesty in the world we wouldn't need courts.
Can I put YOU on a polygraph machine and see how HONEST you have been in life!

OF course it can as it can blind you to whats right in front of you.
I would like an example of eveolution without something being created first.
The CREATOR of ALL THINGS does not exist to those who limit their thinking to what they can touch, feel, and smell.
The CREATOR created this reality that you say does not exist.

These people you speak of are called post modernists. It is much easier if you pretend that they, like their whimsical realities, do not exist.

So basically, evolution is an anti-concept because it has no factual basis. I get it now!
