You would think that when considering on one side, the pretty constant vitriolic phrases thrown around here every few minutes toward those that believe in God, to the other end of more civil but obvious disdain, that such "absurd" beliefs would be on there way out.
When does billions and billions of people's choices become evidence that there might be something more to life than what we can see and touch? Are you really going to claim that in spite of this "evidence" there really is nothing else and it is just your little tiny minority that has it right?
So, when the Muslim population outnumbers the Christian population (extremely likely to happen by 2050), will that be "evidence" that they are correct?
Your grasp of basic logic is, shall we say, less then stellar.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
