"Assuming supernatural influence"? really?
That's your starting point?

Brain power is needed i'm afraid. Are you out? Smile

The starting point is reality. From reality we observe logic. From logic we deduce what must be logical. From what we know, we predict what we don't know. Accuracy depends on the quality and completeness of the subject.

"anything" is such a strong word... Tongue
It's like "always" and "never". I don't like them.

I like beautiful girls... bring them on! Wink

Now seriously, what does that have to do with anything we're talking about?!

You said that we could dismiss religion because some things which are bad have been done in its name.

Would you apply that to scientific discoveries?

I assume that you're human. I test for human. Human test passed. Subject assumed to be human.

Please demonstrate the fault with this process. I'm not disagreeing with you, as I don't need to. I'm merely interested.
