I refuted your argument, dp. You can pretend I didn't, and you can pretend to stand on some kind of pedestal of intellectual superiority, but it's fairly obvious from your vacuous reply that you are left with nothing else but empty rhetoric.

I disagree, D-P. I think he really is that fucking stupid.
Yeah, sad to say the depth of Christian fucktardary has no known floor. Just when you think you've reached the deepest level possible, they find a way to dive to new undiscovered reaches.
Maybe I should try a different approach...

In the name of Nature's God and Sweet Reason, I command the foul demons of stupidity to begone! Release this mind, what remains of it, and return from the pit of stupidity from whence you came!
The power of Reason compels you, vile demons of willful ignorance!
The power of Reason compels you, sinister spirits of brainwashing!
The power of Reason compels you, fiendish foes that fetch fucktardary.
Begone and trouble this innocent but feeble mind no more!

We need one of the mods to make us a banner or something out of this, D-P.
With all the idiotic believers running around loose we have good need of it.

Good. Hopefully you will shut up for ever, and fuck off.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.

He makes Statler Waldorf look scholarly, smart and rational.

1.) Science by definition is falsifiable and therefore has the ability to be wrong.
- The example given in the video is a perfect case of this occurring. It has been observed that particles can and do travel faster than the speed of light. It has also been observed that space has [edit:] the capability of traveling faster than the speed of light. The theory of relativity is not as simple as the video wished to make it seem.
2.) Philosophy by definition is mostly always wrong, but none-the-less is the cause of most, if not all, natural and physical sciences.
- As was stated many times earlier, an argument is only sound if the premises are true. It is possible for a philosophical explanation to be logically sound which would give it equal weight to any reasoned scientific explanation.
In short, science and philosophy are both able to be wrong, neither has the upper hand in a conversation of existence or causality unless one is not logically sound. Empirical evidence is not proof of (non)existence, nor is predictive evidence based on past observations. If you want an explanation as to why then look into cosmology or any science really, and observe how many times it has been wrong. Our knowledge is current and we would be naive to believe that we can say anything with complete truth.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
