Brian37 has said, and I'm paraphrasing, that it is a scientific fact that belief in god results from mistakenly inferring the existence of God from patterns found in Nature. The set of all possible patterns is a pretty large one. I don't see how he, or anyone for that matter, can exclude all possible pattern sets. If someone has definitively done in a scientific manner, then I invite Brian37 to share something specific rather than make vague appeals to evolutionary theory, etc.
I would take it to a somewhat deeper inquiry. When people study the patterns found in Nature are there in fact patterns that objectively exist independently of any particular person's observation?
I still waiting for you to show us what's in your God detection kit, Chad. You can't run around charging everyone with willful ignorance when we are asking you to show us your tools/methods and you refuse to do so. Tools with "S"!!! You guys get your mind out of the gutter!
