It's odd that someone would think they have it all figured out, but that can be attributed to the ego. It also isn't odd because people tend to believe in what they do based on perceived perception of authority figures whoever they personally believe that to be. Something I'm starting to learn while here on this forum is that atheists have their faith just as everyone does, and it's hard to change, just as it is for everyone. The difference would be they call it the rational understanding and belief in the system of collective knowledge based on science and government. There's also apparently a hierarchy and many variants of atheism. I would attribute it to the human experience we all share, since we all have an ego and opinion. Almost like I've bonded with you all, although you would think we are polar opposites.
Well soon I'll start talking again about the vibration that controls existence. Even science knows everything is vibration, from sound to light, to matter, and energy. I've been around, and have the patience.
I also need to add that we all have a confirmation bias, even me. And I'm not perfect, and shouldn't judge anyone. I'm here to learn and share.
Emphasis mine. I'd like to see some examples of where every one of us has claimed to have all the answers.
Sceptics are honest enough to say "we don't know". People like you claim to have answers you can't support, and we point out that they are unsupported. We don't even need to say you're wrong, just that your reasoning is wrong.
Here's an anecdote for you, as you're so fond. I was in the garden the other day, feeding the rabbits. My wife questioned me after I came back in, and asked why I stopped and stared into the distance for a few minutes. I said, "What? I didn't do that?" But apparently I did. I remember stopping to think for what seemed like 5 seconds. The point is, our own memory of events can be extremely unreliable.
