Would you like if someone go around saying that you said this or that.
Something that you in fact never said.
That is the reason why i say that is important to mention who allege
saying this or that about somebody else.
Too many people came to the conclusion that what religion say is what God said
which most probably is not the truth.
Also, are you implying that the god of the Bible is not real? That the real god is another? Because as far as I can tell, your instructions for getting in touch with that real god is the same instructions the Christians here used to verify for themselves that the Bible god is the real one. Maybe you can debate the Christians here. You can tell them to "look within" and they can tell you to "A/S/K" and you can talk right past each other for a few pages and maybe some of you will finally realize just how silly the whole thing sounds.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
