Well what is your reasoning to believe he exists? Why do you think - think, that's right "think" - he exists? That is what you believe is indication, that is your evidence right?

Why shouldn't the Flying Spaghetti Monster be an exception?

What?


Quote:If you're not talking about God, yes.

Why God? What about the FSM?

Quote:In essence it's what you always say.

Why do you think that? I'm asking for your reasoning to believe God exists. Asking for that and asking for your evidence is exactly the same thing - you just seem to hate the word "evidence".

Quote:Wrong. This is selective reasoning.

Evidence is considered rational in any normal belief, but when it comes to religion or pseudo-science it is suspended - why? On what logic - on what reasoning?

Why not have faith in the FSM instead? Do you have your reasons? What are they? Do they relate to God's actual existence at all and the likelihood of it? If not.... - why do you believe in something you have no reason to believe is actually more probable to exist or not? If that's not irrational - then what is?


Quote:"I won't think about it because there is no evidence, and if there's no evidence, how can I think about it [loop to 1st word in sentence ad infinitum]"

I am not looping that. What are you talking about?
