Time to grow up, Huggy.  You are on your own in this vast universe.

You care to provide evidence to back up that claim?

My position is that there is no god until I see some evidence of its existence, pretty much the same as my position on everything else.



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

So nothing exists until you see evidence of it...

Of course I have, on multiple occasions in this tread.

just because you say so doesn't mean it didn't happen...

Lying for jesus again, huh?

The steadfast failure of religitards to demonstrate that their particular fairy tale has any basis in reality.  If you ever find some feel free to present it.  I will give it a fair hearing.
I hope you do better than a light smudge on an old photo.

A "light smudge" on an old photo that was thoroughly vetted scientifically, backed up by audio recording and eyewitness testimony mind you, and the best you could do was a lame attempt at character assassination on the eye witness.

Color me unimpressed.
