Also, every atheist child knows that the dinosaurs died in the big bang.

Thanks. What I was taught in school was completely different from what you said. I was taught in public school that the big bang theory is what created the universe and the Ice Age is what killed the dinosaurs. Then somewhere along the way men came.

Point well taken.  Since you say no evidence, then what is your personal opinion as to why the Arabs guard those places that some say these places are and will kill you if caught going to Mount Ararat? If there is no evidence of a global flood, then what happened to all the ice during the Ice Age that scientists say killed the dinosaurs?

You don't get killed for going to Mount Ararat, that's just silly. You can contact the Turkish government and get a permit to climb Ararat. It generates quite a lot of tourism income for Turkey. Arabs are NOT guarding the alleged 'burning bush' - it is located in a Christian monastery, as I've already told you.

Please list the scientists who say an Ice Age killed the dinosaurs.

Yes, but you'd better buy us a nice meal first.

Ding ding ding ding ding! We have a winner!

Ok, then. Since I am wrong at my guess, please feel free to educate me if you will because apparently I have missed something or public schooling has failed to do their jobs. Enlighten me.

Scientists believe it because they have discovered them. They created experiments which demonstrate that a nucleus, electron, photons and neutrons exist. What's more they actually make use of these discoveries. For example, if they were wrong then nuclear power stations would not be supplying us with electricity. We wouldn't have nuclear bombs so Hiroshima and Nagasaki would not have been blown up. This is evidence that we can see and measure.

There is no evidence for God that we can see and measure in this way. There is no experiment that can prove the existence of a god whereas there are plenty of experiments to prove the existence atoms and sub atomic particles.

Two Shay on the Turkish deal. On dinosaurs, Dr Gregory Price and Dr Elizabeth Nunn in the Norwegian Svalbard where they made their discovery. They say the temperature had dropped and wiped out dinosaurs.

*if the earth was completely covered with ice,

Water expands when it turns to ice. So if you have enough water to cover the Earth up to the highest mountains, then you will have even more volume taken up if it then freezes.

We're currently coming out of an ice age and no models predict that when all the ice melts the entire world will be covered in water.

Welcome Blondie

I'm afraid your definition fails to be meaningful once you say it's something we can't conceive of. Once you say that, any further information you give has been undermined as guesswork.

If we can't conceive of it, then anything we do conceive about it is wrong. We can't possibly have any idea if such a thing exists because we can't learn anything about it.

I don't much care if there is a "God" or not, whatever it may mean. What bothers me is when people claim to have lots of information about it that they can't possibly know.

Two Shay. Now since there is no experiment to prove the existence of God, where is the proof outside of human logic and excuses do non-theists have?

Just fyi, it's touché

I didn't understand your sentence above, I don't know what you're asking.
