You can conflate science and religion; data and scripture all day long. You can do it with your thumb up your ass while singing Yankee Doodle for all I care. It's still a logically fallacious argument
It was a bad argument the last six times you tried it, and if you left and came back here in ten years, guess what?! It would still be a BAD fucking argument. Science and religion are different. That's why one is called "science" and the other is called "religion". They are not synonyms.
I'm done wasting my time arguing against fallacies. This is the problem with you guys. People get so fed up with the willful ignorance that they say, "fuck this assclown, I'm done," and the Christian walks away Feeling as though they've accomplished something.
Congratulations, you've accomplished making yourself look like a stupid asshole for five pages. I'll get started on your trophy.
I agree, that science and religion are not the same. I also agree with you, that these are bad arguments. That was my point from the beginning. I don't believe that the differences in science and religion change the principles, of how we acquire knowledge, and justify our beliefs. This would be special pleading, and unjustified.
Before you go; however, could you do me the courtesy, of explaining what you believe is fallacious, and why my reasoning is incorrect here, that calls for the above post.
