the slippery "F" word - my solution

[solja247]

One of the most time-consuming and frustrating things a theist can do is say something like "you have faith that the sun will rise up tomorrow - thus even you have faith, so how can you be critical of my faith in god" - while it's possible to go into dictionary definitions of the multiple way the word can be used or go the route that one has no faith at all in anything in the believe without evidence meaning of the word, what I have found is that it is best de-obfuscated by dissecting the F word into something a computer might understand:

Indeed, it does require some level of 'faith'. We all have 'faith' in people and in science.

This is what arguing with Christians is like, and it's why I try not to do it anymore because it tends to give me headaches.

Not always.

If there are two different wave lengths of light that would be perceived by people with normal color receptors in the eye and no special indoctrination in conceptualizing color to be of two different colors, could indoctrination from birth cause a person with normal eyes to no longer be able to perceive difference at all between these two colors? Not just think the difference between these two colors makes no difference, but really unable to perceive any difference despite differing input for them from the retina?

The sky is not blue, we percieve the sky being blue because that is the highest wave frequency we can see. Other animals see it as being red or ultraviolent.
