Really, because cars have these fantastic appliances called 'doors'. They open and close and allow occupants of the car to enter and exit whenever they want.

to believe that we are the body.
How do you know that? All the evidence says is that we are our body. Our mind is a manifestation of all the signals and synapses in our brain. Can you point to an example of a mind without a brain?

Quick example.
You are not interested in establish a relationship with God or whoever you
think of and at the same time whining that God or that person does not reciprocate.
When challenge by someone who explain you the irrationality of your
thinking you just say.......IF GOD WOULD EXIST IT WOULD MANIFEST.
Can you see now how a dogma is created?
Yea that is very much a strawman there. No atheist uses that at the reason they don't believe god exists. Most atheists simply say that theists haven't met their burden of proof. That is all that is needed. There is no evidence for the existence of god, therefore I don't believe it exists.
I can now ask you the same question you asked me: Can you see now how a dogma is created? We can neither prove nor disprove your claims, but you believe in them anyway, despite plenty of evidence to the contrarty. Sounds like a dogma you have there.

I fail to see how asking you where you got your information from is a dogma. The fact that you won't provide information as to where you got your percentages implies that you can't because you didn't look anywhere. You made them up off the top of your head. That makes you a liar and your percentages, invalid and unreliable.

Your response makes no sense. You fail to address a clear contradiction of your assertion. Please try again.

Fantastic! Now, please explain in detail, how exactly that works. I want to know specifics here.

That does not mean that i am right or your wiki is right.
It is up to you to believe what you like.
Well, you disagreed with the definition from wikipedia and stated your own.

Months ago you were saying that life is finite.
Don't you worry i do understand very well what you
are babbling.
I'm going to have to explain this to you again? What is this, the third time?
I don't believe life is infinite, because there is no evidence to suggest that it is infinite. There is evidence, to support the claim that life is finite. There has never been an occasion where someone has died and come back to life. Not one.
Once again, you don't understand what I said.
Quote:Qualifications don't mean everything. But they certainly are important. They let us know that the person speaking actually knows what they are talking about. They have passed tests by experts in a particular field and have demonstrated their aptitude at their subject. A person with qualifications is far more likely to know what they are talking about than someone who doesn't. If you heard a meteor was going to hit earth, which person would you be more likely to believe it from? A tramp or Stephen Hawkin? There is a very obvious answer here, lets see if you can get it.

Once again, your response doesn't make sense, doesn't address anything I said and didn't answer my question.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“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
