Ignorant, childish answer from an ignorant, childish man. So sad.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Judging by the quality of the posts, the evidence, and the arguments, you are incorrect.

And if there really is a cosmic thing-a-ma-jig why would it choose to communicate by the worst, most unreliable, and useless form of communication ever devised? Is your boundless being a complete blithering idiot?
First of all, I told you he does communicate with me. Why do you say it's the most useless form of communication ever devised? He managed to communicate it to approximately 1/3 of the world's population today. You can't hear him if you keep your brain closed though.

No, you just think he communicates with you. You want it to be true so badly that you have deluded yourself it must be true despite the realistic and logical evidence to the contrary.

Argumentum ad populum. A majority believing something is true does not make it true, especially when the majority merely has fallible faith as its supposed evidence.

Anyone can be convinced of anything so long as one forgoes with logic. The comfortable lie, unfortunately, is not something that should be valued. I can no more believe in god without evidence than I can believe in the Easter Bunny without evidence. I can no more believe in god without evidence than I can believe in Zeus without evidence.

Created the entire universe, manages only a 33% success rate with its people. That's supposed to be impressive?

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

That cracked me up. Do you have a t-shirt that says, "It's not a fallacy; it's just an opinion."?
Your opinion is based on that fallacy and you know it.

Then look at the variety of messages that the 33% are getting from supposedly the same source.
Very poor communicator.
