So the dictionary decides religious questions now?  You're a moron with thinking skills at all.

The dictionary defines words, that's kind of it's job...

Do you just believe anything without evidence.....oh that's right , your a Christian.

Your pea-brian doesn't decide what is or isn't truth. Your 5 senses limit you to what they can physically detect. Just because your 5 sense can't detect something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If you were born blind would light not exist because you haven't seen evidence of it?

Did radio wave not exist in the times past, before they were detectable?



Did people believe in radio waves before there was evidence for the existence of radio waves?
I would say that they probably didn't.

What people did was adjust their beliefs on the basis of new information.

And I would be willing to adjust my view about the existence of or god or gods if there was sufficient evidence for it, why not, I don't actually care one way or the other.

But what I've seen so far are rather childlike ideas of gods that I find laughably stupid.

Not that laughably stupid things can't be reality, I mean you have Trump as president.

But I'm gonna need a whole lot of very convincing evidence in order to change my mind.

Until then.

There is no god.

Fair enough?



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
