Evidence? Let me see this "god" you speak of and that will prove it all for me. Will I praise him? Depends which god. Definitely not the christian god. Forget that dude...

What, did Drich hijack your account?

No this is just parodying how most religions are.

Exactly, thus my response.

Now i shall take my leave i need to start making my logic and reasoning pamphlets and start handing them out of people before they go to church this Sunday.

Nice dyresand, you slapped religious bollocks down hard with that example

But religion is too stupid to realize you just knocked it's teeth out.

Subjective feelings are not evidence, and there's a simple way to demonstrate that: you feel that your god exists, and someone of another religion feels that their god is real. This is true of multiple religions, and at least a couple hundred followers. But they're all different gods, mostly mutually exclusive. Someone is wrong there. It's possible everyone is wrong there. But what's truly evident from that example is that "feeling" god inside you is not an accurate depiction of reality necessarily, because at least a few of the people reporting precisely the same effect you are, are by definition entirely wrong. So feelings produce, at best, both correct and incorrect results: how do you tell which is right?

Oh, and by the way: if I feel in my heart, as truly as you believe in your god, that rocks can talk, does that mean that rocks can talk? Or does that mean my feelings are factually wrong?

Hmm, I guess feelings aren't reliable evidence then.

If you have some false memories, it means memory is never reliable and you can never be certain of a certain memory?

Exactly!!!!! You can't rely on personal memory at all.

Good point. But it is also true that in the majority of situations one has no choice but to completely rely on ones memory. So undependable and altogether essential both.

I both enjoy and get scared at the ultra-solipsism, as I just named it, that I think about sometimes.

At every instant, everything could have only just come into existence, including you, and all your memories planted. You'd never know the difference.

Is it possible that the world only comes into existence in the future, but hasn't yet?

Erm... You broke my brain. I'll get back to you in 5-7 working days.
