Prove it then big boy.
In any case, you're already on-board with this position. I doubt you'd contest that any religion other than your own is anything other than useless, and harmful. So you have a favorite, and it gets a pass.

Quote:Now you're stating science will prove something is not from God because it occurs naturally, how do you know that God didn't plan for this. Morals do not come from anything, morals are part of who God is, they have always existed. Truths are eternal.Science doesn't have to concern itself with whatever your favorite bedtime story may be. Feel free to engineer any claim you'd like to make to be as vaporous and empty as the god claim itself. If you spent your entire life trying to peddle off fairy tales I doubt that it would register as a blip on the radar. Who cares what you have to say about a thing which you cannot produce?
