And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and now already is in the world” I kinda half read the bible quote. It kinda makes the premise of the 'experiment' superfluous. As far as this quote is concerned to deny the hypothesis means that you are the anitichrist.  RE: Please participate in my experiment.

You have no evidence there is no God. I have personal evidence. And no it is not scientific observable repeatable evidence. That is something man created, and man flawed. A bigger question arises when you further this discussion as you have, if you are right and there is no God, what is the meaning to a debate at all? You cannot change my mind, but if you could, what purpose would it serve if we are just flesh and bones, soon to disinigrate and be forgotten?

Can't say I've ever heard of the other kooks you mention. The Heritage Foundation is a right wing think tank that is more politically minded and the Discovery Institute is specifically aimed at getting evolution and non-creationist science out of the school system. They are both on the same team, I will put it like that. So I think in this instance that you are correct. This is more a Discovery Institute type statistics fishing expedition.

Did you think you would come in with a trick devised to make atheists say they believe in god and the people here would pat you on the back? Fucking joke. [/quote] No trickery. Just referred here by a senior member, daily user, family relative to pose a question and let it go. If you read the initial post you would see I safegaurded against hypocrisy of the participants. But Insanity had noted early on, the experiment was flawed, as were my results, so we have improved it and I will find a new forum to pose the same question on, more appropriately. Thank you for your participation God Bless

Then that means god is flawed. And even if you deny that then the people that wrote the bible were flawed therefore could the bible not be wrong?

The meaning of the debate is that religion has no place in the modern thinking world. If you are incapable of changing your mind then I feel sorry for you. And there is no purpose.

Off to litter someone elses boards with your droppings? Wish there was some way to warn them before you showed up, troll. Typical bullshit, off to find another mark.
Buh-bye.
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. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. 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!
Oh you poor misguided soul. I pray you find love.

Because believers are trying to impose their belief systems on everyone else in the here and now. Believe whatever you want to believe, just keep it to yourself.
