Reasons

[fr0d0]

Well I'm sick of this stupid song and dance of yours so I'm putting it to a poll, fairly sure what the result will be but maybe you are right, maybe Catholics aren't Christians?

You seem to be sick of discussion before it starts. I'd think that Christians would be quite a reliable source. You think atheists would have a better idea??

I see ... so we're back to the claim that the complete lack of empirical evidence somehow proves your cartoon caricature god? Are you some kind of escapee from a mental institution? I ask only out of idle curiosity of course.

Nope. Lack of evidence doesn't prove anything. I have faith. That ISN'T provable.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, you haven't provided any therefore it is safe to assume that what you claim has no (ZERO, NADA, ZIP) basis in truth and the claimant is either a fraud or deluded.

Absolutely. There can be no proof.

For fuck's sake, this is just fucking ridiculous!

Yet people get it. You don't.

What are my extraordinary claims? I don't claim that there is actually a God that you must believe in. I state that I believe in such an existence without proof. Why should that bother you? I'm not claiming anything. I'm making a personal choice.

In simple terms? That you actually believe that an absolute lack of evidence proves (or somehow lends credibility to) the claim that there is a god ... do you not see how insane that is?

Yes. But then you misconstrued it.

@ Kyu: I never brought up the subject of my non claims. you did. I tried to say I didn't want to discuss it, but you insisted very strongly that I did.

Yes you did ... you directly stated that a lack of evidence is what should be expected if your god was real.

That 'my' God is real or not to me is completely besides the point. What the hell has that got to do with anybody besides me?? My 'point' is that there is no empirical evidence of God. Something that incredulously, you keep on arguing about!
