Proof that God exists

You should try it sometime.  Cool

"There is a wonderful security in admitting you're wrong because, when you're wrong, you're sure to be right." - Alan Watts.  

The only way to be right is to first be wrong.  If you can't be wrong, you can never be right... it's like a deadend... a blockage that prevents further progress.  Intelligence, therefore, is a function of one's propensity to admit error.

"The fool who persists in his folly will become wise." - William Blake.

Alan used the example of the flat-earther.  He said you can't convince a flat-earther the earth is round because he KNOWS it's flat.  You have to make him "persist in his folly"... that is, you have to take him for a walk to have a look over the edge... and when he comes back to the place he started, he is convinced the earth is at least cylindrical.

The Backfire Effect happens when evidence is presented contrary to the beliefs of a person which causes the opposite of the intended effect.  In other words, the more evidence you produce, the more they dig in.  The way around that is to help them "persist in their folly" by asking them to explain their position more specifically until you get them to the point that they realize they don't know as much as they thought.

Everyone should be aware of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qe5pv4khM-Y

Alternatively, you could continue in the persistence of your folly of ad hominuous attacks for which atheists have become so notorious.

Consider this fine representative:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avep_1vbUOA

Ethan Bolen - Deep down all atheists are jsut like this man...
Emperor Palpatine - internet atheims in nutshell
mah38900 - It's like a guy yelling YouTube comments in real life
Laana Sou - That's how i imagine most of the atheists on the internet. Crazy
Sasha Shepherd - lol i thought he did a fine job representing atheism
gcHK47 - And atheists wonder why they're the world's most hated minority.
JugularCandy - Your average atheist, ladies and gentlemen
scartissue454 - lmao it's like an atheist commenter on youtube but in real life
asdf - Just your average atheist, move along.
sweettrav20 - You know. This behavior is very common among new atheist. The rage they display is unreal.


Keep persisting!  Evolution may one day make you wise.  Until then, keep trying the same button Wink
