Quote:Humans have discerned this thing about us we call soul, for example. This essence we also attribute to God.The problem with souls and gods is that they are only baseless claims. Highly improbable.
Quote:Calling the soul 'real' of course is debatable. Seems like people through the ages felt the need to describe it, so in that company, I put it forward as 'real'.Souls and gods is a belief that has been around for many thousands of years. Descriptions of souls and gods differ through many religions.
Quote:God not needing to better himself doesn't render him meaningless, just complete.I don't see it as meaningful. The problem with being complete is that there is no more gain, no more paths to take. I'd hate the idea of being "complete". What would be the point of existing?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
