You basing everything on what's written in a work of ancient fiction based upon tales and myths told by word of mouth for centuries before they were committed to paper and edited countless times since, a narrative with no consistency or demonstrable basis in reality. You think that makes you better than Drich, who swears by the efficacy of revelation? I'm sorry that I assumed you were a Christian.
Quote:If you’re going to take this line of reasoning, then how can any reliable truth be obtained from anything you perceive through your senses?
I can't, until I corroborate the information with other people and until my claim is thoroughly tested and verified. In many cases, that does not lead to the truth, but it does put one as close to it as we can possibly get. Until then, I have nothing even close to knowledge.
