When I do, you don't read them. You go into a two-page ontological rambling, disjointed post, that usually concludes "God exists," because you seem to have the need to feel intellectually superior to nonbelievers for believing in an invisible sky deity with no evidence of it's existence.
It's been explained to you repeatedly why ontological arguments and arguments from necessity beg the question, yet you continue to use them.
You presuppose something is true because you presuppose its' truth, and ignore objections.
What part of that is worthy of serious reply?

What you just said shows that you don't think. You ignored what I said and then went on to tell me what I want. And why do you say that I don't understand simple scientific principles?

I think Putin is butthead, but I still believe he exists. By the way, scientists told me there were nine planets in the solar system and now they tell me there's only eight. Why can't they be consistent? I can't accept science anymore because they're always changing their minds. Scientists have been wrong more times that I can count. Next thing you know they'll tell me that bloodletting treatments can be harmful.
You don't even understand the basics of the scientific method.
