Read the studies and prove yourself right.

My science teachers said he was not real.

The same science teachers that taught you that evolution is a fact?
Or did you have your ears plugged up for that bit?

Not just behaviour; beliefs too. Remember the half-atheist half-theist brain I posted a couple pages back. What else is personality, other than behaviour and beliefs?

What would that evidence look like? What evidence would a non corporeal link between a physical body and a transdemensional being look like?

Why would Anyone think that any hypothsis has any foot hold in reality? It accuratly describes the relationship between Mind body and Spirit the bible describes, at the same time not conflict with what is currently known of the brain.

Uh, yeah... I'm sort of seeing a few words here that conflict with reality. Namely, "spirit," and "bible."

just because your personal version of reality has not been able to incorperate the spirit and the bible into it's realm of existance does not mean it does not exist.

For where were viruses and bacteria before they were discovered? Did they not exist simply because popular 'reality' did not recognise them? If you close your mind to the unknown, the unknown will remain that way.

You would need to demonstrate the reality of the spirit, and the historical accuracy of the bible, before one can claim to accept the existence of either and still hold onto any shred of rationality.

And if you accept the unknown before it has become known, you're no better than those raving homeless men standing on street corners. You could say this crap about any supernatural claim; don't beleive in the Egyptian goddess Bast? If you close your mind to the unknown, it will remain that way!

Not a believer in Allfather Odin? C'mon, give the unknown a chance!

What, you don't dedicate a pre-warmed solstice dildo to Prefnia, a fertility god I just made up? What do you have against the unknown?!

Drich, don't pretend that you're actually open minded here; you're just trying to cover for the fact that you have a presupposition that you can't possibly justify even vaguely, by any acceptable means, and yet you want to seem rational. The truth is, you don't accept all unknown claims as possible, because you're specifically obeying the religious edicts of a specific god, to the exclusion of all others.

My science teachers did not believe in evolution. They were to smart to be conned.

Then your teacher has nothing to do with science and was simply smart enought to con you onto buying his nonsence.
He doesn`t even deserve the word teacher, but conman.

Why do you bring this up when every single antievolution claim by your kind of desperate fanatics has been proven to be a complete and utter attempt of decepting people into believing nonsence and nothing else!
