"I'll pray for you."

[Brian37]

If you want to cling to a demonstrably idiotic claim no matter what your belief or lack of Brian, be my guest.

Ok then, why are you here exactly? If you have nothing to prove to us then you are wasting your time and ours.

See you thought it would be fun to hang out in the lions den and maybe help some of us lost puppies find the way. It never occurred to you that we, not you, are right and we are trying to help you.

When you have competing claims what do you think is the best method to determine reality?

"Allah is real"
"Yahweh is real"
"Vishnu is real"
"Jesus is real"


All employ tactics of the following mental traps.

1. Circular reasoning, quoting a book to prove a book.
2. Argument from tradition.
3. All start even before you get to the writings start with a naked assertion.
4. Appeal to authority, which if works Allah is the one true god because Arabs invented algebra. Muslims Jews and Hindus can and do hold PHDs so by proxy of being smart they must be right about all claims they make.

All of you claim "this is true" "I got it right"

So what?

It never occurs to you that when you say "They got it wrong" and they say "You got it wrong" I say "You are both right".

Now again, I ask, with competing claims what is the best method to insure quality of data to insure that everyone is on the same page? I'll give you a clue, religion and god belief are not good methods and not even a theory. Not yours not any.
