What is "FAITH"

[Esquilax]

My argument is completely separate from me as a forum member. The fact still remains that the universe came to be in the past, be it 4 million years or yesterday. I could be a 7-year old Creationist that believes in a flat earth and that would take nothing from my argument, because nowhere have I asserted anything as fact based on my own authority.

That last sentence is kind of hurt by the second one. When was it that you demonstrated that the universe came into being, rather than simply changed form? When was it that you did something science has found incredibly challenging, by reaching into the point beyond measurable time and provided measurable data to prove that there was nothing there?

What you would get from that is a sin against rational thought: refusing to acknowledge that all ideas are equal.

All ideas are not equal in the real world. Some of them have evidence behind them, and others- like yours- are merely asserted repeatedly with no evidence at all.
