This is the way of every seller of woo, if it can't be confirmed in the lab or by investigation then it very likely is a con. Your god is like santa, a fictional character that some choose to believe in, nothing more. You seem to think that I should believe in every unproven thing.(December 27, 2015 at 5:08 am)downbeatplumb Wrote: You are right the scientific method did not make me an atheist because I have never for a second believed in a god the whole thing just strikes me, and has always struck me as being very stupid myths that society should have outgrown centuries ago.I just pointed out how science fails to disprove the existence of God. Look at what I said refuting that claim again.
The science just shows that I'm right.
Now here is a thing for you to ponder, I think it very likely that there is life on other planets in the universe, there is life here and the processes are not unique to this planet, but I do not believe that there is life out there because it has not been proven. Do you get the subtly I think that it is probable but is unproven so I do not believe, I think god is exceptionally unlikely and I do not believe because it is unproven.
Why is this an unreasonable stance? I only believe in things that are positively proven, things that have insufficient evidence for them I do not believe and rank according to likelihood, god is very unlikely and is down at the bottom of the possibilities I am struggling to think of anything as unlikely as god to equate it with, that's how unlikely I think it is.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
