Are you familiar with the fallacy of the appeal to novelty?  If you want to make a case for it, I am happy to listen!

"Appeal to novelty"? What the fuck does that mean? Scientific method is hardly a "novelty". If you think it is then why are you posting your bullshit arguments on a product of "novelty". I don't think products of science, like computers are a mere "novelty". Computers are pretty universal and used in every nation.

But ok, even if you want to claim I am not familiar with "fallacy of the appeal to novelty".

See if you can spot the pattern.

"The fallacy of the appeal to novelty" therefor Allah is the one true god.
"The fallacy of the appeal to novelty" therefor Yahweh is the one true god"
"The fallacy of the appeal to novelty" therefor Vishnu is the one true god"
"The fallacy of the appeal to novelty" therefor Buddha is the one true wisdom".


If your argument worked universally then anyone can use it to justify anything and all religions are true at the same time. 

Yes, science is far better than human concocted mythology. But hardly new. Advancements in science have speed up over the past century yes, and even the past couple of decades.
