Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence
#30
RE: Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence
I remember one guy on here said he was more certain God existed than his own parents.

The gulf between the strength of belief and the nonexistent evidence is astonishing.

But because god never actually shows up and does anything, the belief doesn't get challenged. It remains as an underlying assumption of no purpose. Until you shine the spotlight on him, of course. Then he's gone with the wind.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
