That's what billions of people have been doing for thousands of years, "guessing". And the results is hundreds of religions scattered throughout the planet, not counting the hundreds of religions who have disappeared in that time interval. It's only in the last 500 years, that certain people were able to get out of that nightmare of "guessing", and it's called the scientific method in which "guessing" must be verified rigidly with empirical evidence. And from there developed the technology we all enjoy. Take away science and you get no electricity in your home, notwithstanding all the stuff working with electricity - radio, TV, computer, the internet, to name a few. You would be reading by candle light, and forget going to the hospital as no medical equipment such as MRI, x-ray or even the notion of taking your blood test to see what virus invaded your body. In those days, if you were sick, they thought they could cure you by bleeding you.
BTW, atheism means there is lack of evidence in the existence of a god. Anything else is not atheism. An atheist can believe in voodooism, vampirism, satanism, whatever, it's not a reflection on atheism. The only thing that all atheists shared is lack of evidence in the existence of a god. If you want to attack atheists then the the only way to go is to show there is an abundance of evidence for the existence of a god. Any other attack is like shooting in the dark.
I got bad news for you L.monkey.
1) If you would present a doctoral thesis along these lines talking into account what i already write you would not pass.
The fire can burn you but at the same can provide warm, can cook your meals and a lot of other things.
In case you don't know, and I guess you don't know is that this was found out way back in the 17th century by people who called themselves scientists. So what you claim as your own proper idea is something verified scientifically hundreds of years before you were born. Sorry, but keep demonstrating how ignorant you are, you're doing a fine. But worse is that you are completely dishonest, and as such I am terminating my conversation with you. YOU are a total waste.
