Really? Most people have no problem accepting non-falsifiable positions if they like those positions. A gay or trans person says there were born that way. Plenty of atheists take that at face value, even though it's not falsifiable. Well, actually, it pretty much is falsified by twins studies, but you guys accept it anyway.


Quote:Maybe if you can demonstrate that those things happen at a significantly higher rate for Christians than people of other religions, or no religions, you may have a point.

I'm not trying to prove a point. The question was whether I'm comfortable with it, not whether I could prove it to your satisfaction.

So you prefer comfort to truth.

It's usefulness as a tool is waning.

Hardly. Europe has largely abandoned Christianity, and it's largely abandoned having babies. Secular attempts at encouraging procreation haven't worked, so now they're importing people, largely theists, to fill the gap.

Secular attempts?

The persecution never ends, does it?
