It's not our problem that the things you'd like to be true, don't pass rudimentary scrutiny, and inventing this ridiculous conspiracy to avoid even considering the possibility that you might just be wrong is profoundly childish.
That's the problem with atheism, you require evidence before there can be any evidence. You need an hypothesis, then funding.
So if a religious organization funded a college to find out if "souls" exist after death. And lets say 100yrs from now we have the technology to see the spectreme of where this energy goes to (since you cannot destroy energy).
in the future, atheism will have taken 100% control of government (similar to how religion has taken control of gov't today) and your work would be destroyed by men-in-black. Because proving the supernatural would go against the atheist status quo.
