Something I have noticed is that creationists and atheists both think the same thoughts: "Man the other side is stupid, they don't know anything."Isn't it the worst sort of human sickness that faith is considered any sort of virtue? The sort of blind faith that creationists subscribe to is completely toxic.
The difference is is that we have empirical evidence and logic and rational reasoning. They have nothing but their own intense, willful delusions.
Faith is utter ignorance. It is not just ignorance, it is willful, eager ignorance masquerading as knowledge. Truly faith is the most sinister aspect of humanity masquerading as the most noble...which is exactly why it is the most sinister.
