You rang? Thinking

The belief that science is capable of addressing what it currently defines itself not to address isn't a strong position IMHO. And if science should widen it's scope to include the metaphysical I would welcome you gladly to belief in God.
And if you hold the belief that the metaphysical doesn't exist then you deny your own everyday life and experiences.

But you are correct to accuse me of the belief that the lack of physical evidence for any metaphysical subject should actually be, in any common sense understanding, impossible.

Over to you to explain the validity of your position.... Wink

Back on topic. The questionable post was not spam, and may have been preachy, admin's have been made aware. The following entire page of non-topic related one liners were just as annoying to admins as the wall of text was to you. Thank you Fr0D0 for attempting to get back on topic.
Let's get back on track or I'll have to lock down the thread. Thanks and have a nice day/night. [/end modhat]
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

DBP, I know one fundie shithead who wrote an entire paper based on the idea that because there is no evidence for the exodus that means it happened.

So yes. They are that fucking stupid.

It's 18 pages and there is no more "evidence" presented than there was on page one.

Delusions are not evidence...of anything other than the person having them being delusional.
