Actually coming to earth and spending 33 years is one obvious answer to your question.

Man, please stop insulting our intelligence.

That would be the stupid way and time to prove stuff. So it never happened.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

. . . that moment when everyone realizes that someone is using the book, "The Wizard of Oz," as evidence of the existence of the Wizard of Oz.

Hmm, indeed.

I'd like to see how these rules work for narrative being evidence of narrative before we state what book were discussing. Even if it was, it doesn't address the OP at all. It's just trying to convince us that the believer isn't completely off in cloud cuckoo land. I don't care if they are or not, if their beliefs have no actual relevance to reality.

Still very few theists even disputing the OP at all I see. How many have we had now, two is it?

One thing this thread has definitely proven is that Steve is a fucking idiot.

Steve if you're out there I'm pretty sure Hammy means that in the nicest way possible.

That would've been funnier if there wasn't an actual idiot named Steve in this thread.

I often wonder how much flack he takes about "Adam and Steve".
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Yeah, just like the claim that Muhammad was visited by the Archangel Gabriel in the cave and received the Koran is evidence for the truth of Islam.

Sorry, but your claim that the stories in the Bible are evidence, is laughable. I'm sure this has been said to you many times, but the Bible is not evidence for your god, it IS the claim.

How do you continue to make the same fallacious arguments over and over?

Is it lack of intelligence or lack of intellectual honesty?

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I think Steve has abandoned the thread...like they all do...all the time...and then somehow convince themselves that they "win debates", and are "never proved wrong".
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
