They haven't caught up with the simple fact that science, again and again, has decisively shown that the way the universe actually works is counter-intuitive.
You have to be able to do the math, or at least to believe the people who can.
You folks are such faithful believers I believe you start boards like this just to re-affirm you faith.
Faith
noun
1. complete trust or confidence in someone or something.
2. strong belief in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual conviction rather than proof.
I may use the first, when the methodology and objective evidence merit it, but I have no use whatsoever for the second, obviously.
Quote: You convince yourselves there is overwhelming evidence against a Creator and solid evidence the universe and life was caused inadvertently.Just repeating the same lie over and over after it has been explained multiple times, might be considered trolling, Drew. The physical universe exists as an objective fact, it is also an objective fact that organic life has emerged on at least one planet that we know of, causal natural phenomena exist as an objective fact, now...what objective evidence can you demonstrate that any deity, or anything supernatural is even possible?
Quote:Yet only a pathetic number of people subscribe to atheism.This is another bare appeal to numbers Drew, an argumentum ad populum fallacy.
Quote:Its not theists (Falwell or Swaggert) who are claiming we live in a multiverse its reputable scientists.The multiverse hypothesis does not in any way, evidence that any deity or anything supernatural is possible.
Quote:When are you folks going to straighten these scientists out...explain about the water and the puddle.The multiverse hypothesis is not at odds with a lack of belief in any deity or deities, so what on earth are you talking about? You're producing pure gibberish now.
