Sounds stupid, that's exactly what you just did to me. If you want to argue that everything is about opinions, i'm out. It's not worth it. And BTW nice strawman.
I lack a belief in your god because you have not met your burden of proof. Simple

And again, another complete strawman from a stroppy little child who doesn't like his beliefs being called into question.

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
