In this case, the leap of faith IS the credible argument.
Quote:In life we take lots of "leaps of faith", even when our lives are the thing at stake.If you say so, but that doesn't make those leaps "arguments", so...............?
Quote:Let me give you an example: flying. All of us ride plains, but do you know that there is always a chance of 1 in every 11 Million do die.Ah, the good ole bet hedging strategy of belief. I'm sure it'll work out, and that the lord of creation won't see directly through that nonsense and fill your anus with molten lead or whatever he does on tuesdays.
For cars, it's 1 for every 5000 car crashes. But there is a chance.
My "leap of faith" is based on this 1 in 11 Million. And guess what? planes DO crash, and accidents DO happen. So when we take the matter of "rare odds"; it is not quite wrong or illogical to carry the stand I take; that's why you have a seat belt in your car. Who should I believe, you or the engineer working at Mustang? If I believed you; I might fly out of the window someday due to an accident because "Khem and his buddies declined the 1 in 5000 accident possibility"..
