Nah the exclamation point was just fine, like you would know in the first place, you purposely quote people out of context.

Again, you didn’t quote me correctly. It was science hates religion but arose from religion, hence the use of the terms PARADOX and AS STRANGE AS IT MAY SEEM. Is that really that hard to understand?

I just regurgitated your same reasoning back at you, if you don’t like it what does that say about your original reasoning? Lol.

Type what you mean and mean what you type. I wasn't being dishonest. You're a prick for suggesting it when it is obvious you said science in other posts and only resorted to your op because you knew you had done so. You see how something as simple as rereading your posts can avoid all kinds of confusion.
It’s called telescoping. If I am writing a piece of work on “Islamic Fundamentalist Terrorists” I would refer to them as this in my introduction and then it is completely legitimate to only refer to them as “terrorists” later in the work in order to be efficient. This whole time it has been very clear I have been addressing modern science, it was in my OP and all of my quotes were referring to it. You are just grasping at more straws.

Actually Google census and find the oldest reference of a census being taken. I'll wait here. While you're at it, think about where your bullshit Inquisition death toll statistics came from.
How on earth would a census have anything to do with science (modern science) arising from religion? Red herring.

Using the word battle just implied you had actually responded with some quotes. Yes, I made the claim, and I supported it.

Yet science (modern science) and religion are mentioned in there not once.

Doesn't a census result in statistics? I'm sure it does. Furthermore, you have quoted, repeatedly, statistics deduced by modern scholars. You fucking know that your argument that they didn't have statistics back then is bullshit. Fucking troll.

Science is science Statler. Statistics was a lively area of study, and statistics were kept. I'm not nice like Shell, I'll laugh at you, and reduce your positions to the absurd until you give up...and you know it.

You wanted statistics about science (modern science) arising from religion, even if this were possible I am not sure what they'd even look like (x-y scatter plots of the number of people reading Bibles while simultaneously shaking test tubes? Lol). I pointed out that statistics were not used much back then; you made some red herring point about the census. You really think you are proving your point effectively? That's scary if you really do pseudo-mod.

Actually one thing I do know is that you are all talk. You talk a good game, but we all know what that is worth. I assume you were trying to be funny when you said you were not nice like Shell? If so, that was pretty amusing, I will give you that.

I didn't even say I wanted statistics. I said massive quoting will only be feasible as "proof" if backed up by something like statistics. What I asked for was an outline leading from religion to the origins of modern science.

Not a red herring, dude. I was demonstrating that statistics were used back then and as far back as the earliest civilizations.

I don't have a point to make. You do. Call me a pseudo-mod all you want, Stat.

I don’t remember you ever asking for this outline. I would think that the actual founders of modern science’s word that it was their religious views that fueled their science should be all the proof anyone needs. Unless of course you believe they were just lying and were secretly atheists whose atheistic worldviews drove their scientific endeavors? I could see you believing something along these lines.

Ok…whatever..dude. :-P I think we have beaten this dead horse enough. I will just take the founders at their own word, you can keep believing they were liars. It doesn’t make a difference to me. I just can’t believe I got the chance to use Dawkins as a source against an atheist; the universe must be out of tilt or something. :-P

Therein lies one of the problems. You have a book that you believe in. My lack of belief in god has nothing to do with anybody's book or opinion. If you want to use other people's opinions to prove a point, I suggest you choose sheep to have discussions with.

Really? Could you please show me where? I just can't seem to find you asking for an outline anywhere in your other posts.

I wasn't appealing to just an opinion, I was appealing to an expert on such matters. There is a difference. I don't see how the fact that your belief in the non-existence of God has no foundation outside of yourself has to do with anything.

Of course you don't. You keep making statements about how shocked you are that not all atheists bow down to Dawkins. I'm not sure how you could still hold that position in this forum, but hell, think what you want. The reason I mention that my disbelief has nothing to do with a fucking book or someone else's opinions is because you keep up with the Dawkins shit. How many goddamn times does one person have to tell you that they don't read Dawkins before you figure it the fuck out and get off that horse?
