I have no idea what they're on about when they talk about this "great force". They honestly seem to think they're scientifically on the right lines, which worries me. Considering their statement is so vague, I've given up trying to refute it.

When was that? Ancient Greece?

That is what we call a good old fashioned manipulation of the truth to suit their argument.

Which is why you tell them that their fucking bible is a load of primitive shit and not worth the paper it is written on.

They do not handle outright scorn very well.

I prefer a more subtle approach. No need to descend to their intellectual and moral levels.
