Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence

[robvalue]

The usual problem with religious claims (let's be honest, where else is this going... I have tried to ask) is that they are almost always untestable and unfalsifiable. That literally means there can be no conclusive evidence, for or against. That is a problem for the person making the claim to either sort out, or to stop making the pointless claim.

For example: "Jesus (assuming he existed) was the son of God."

"God answered my prayer."

"The devil has corrupted the world."

Unfalsifiable. Untestable. Useless.

If anyone doesn't understand this point, please ask and I will elaborate.
