Dear Theists

RE: Dear Theists
Wow. An article from Huffington Post. That site has become as credible as Fox News. It's always like that's where the journalists who got fired from other publications ended up.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Oh, please do enlighten us and tell us about how believing in angels and demons running around isn't delusional.

Tell us how believing in dark matter or dark energy(you know the stuff you can't see)isn't delusional. Four decades of contoled experiments and not one bit of evidence, let lone proof.

They do not know what it is, ergo the investigation. The term 'dark matter' was coined because they cannot see it it, but only the results. Can you see air?

There is no evidence for it, what is observed in space doesn't mean they have found anything, there are problems with the thinking on the dark anything, also I said it has never been seen, yet many believe it's there.

Is that a problem for you?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Standard reply for one who has no answer, atheist say Christians are delusional because we believe in the unseen God, yet atheist get a pass for believing that something unseen with no evidence is there. Try again, this time use your brain.

RE: Dear Theists
So...for clarity....is it your contention that there's something wrong with believing in things unseen and with no evidence?  Because if not...I'm fairly certain you don't have any objection to dark matter - on those grounds.

That's a completely moronic remark. Even if you believe that the Post leans far to the left, it doesn't lack credibility. They don't act as a mouthpiece for any particular party like Fox News does for the GOP and its base, white evangelicals and the extremely rich.
