Those are your words. How in the goddamn mother FUCK are you going to tell us that with a straight face? Do you not understand the very, very simple concept of what actual evidence is? The hierarchy of what the least convincing and least reliable forms of argument and evidence? You can not, for one minute, expect a single person on here to think you are not stark raving mad to have that position and claim in all honesty to believe you sincerely have good reasons for holding it.
But, just humor us. There's plenty of websites out there that will specifically list the things that are not evidence/bad evidence. If you have a single reason that is not on any of those, or which is not based on a hoax that has been debunked (shroud of turin comes to mind) then, sorry (not sorry at all, actually), you're a fucking moron.
So go on, then, smart guy. Enlighten us. What's this 'evidence' you speak of? Must be goddamn fucking BRILLIANT if it's what convinced you from adulthood and a rational skeptic worldview; or were you indoctrinated from the cradle and never saw things from the outside in? Because I'll let you in on a little secret: The things that convince five-year-olds that fantasies are real, aren't what those adults use to become convinced. They're already convinced via what is indistinguishable from mental abuse. So expecting that kind of shit to impress critical thinkers is a waste of your, and more importantly, everyone else's time. Put up or shut up time, brah. Out with it, or shut the fuck up and hold it.
Again astonished by your patience at dealing with Road. He's immune to evidence .And is only interested in maintaining his own internal narrative .
Oh, I have less patience than anyone on here (except maybe Min...but that's something I admire), I'm just calling this fuckass out on his bullshit once and for all. He's in the corner now, he can either own up and reveal his own stupidity, or change the subject and as good as admit it. There is no third option.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
