Huss: OK, if you say so, I can't argue with that. Apologies. I should have said I doubt you believe because of it. My bad.
I don't need to search anywhere, I have no reason to think any god exists. If he wants to interact me with, he's welcome to do so. If he just wants to send cryptic messages hidden amongst other equally weird looking non-messages, well he's bang out of luck. I have better things to do. I don't need religion to know what is important to me. If God is good, he will respect my use of critical thinking and my care for humans and animals, the things I know are real.
I've listened to the other side plenty, and it has no credibility I'm afraid. All religion is based on logical fallacies, emotional manipulation and misinformation.
For example, click here to see where I cover "false dichotomy" on my website. That is the error in saying either the Quran was divinely inspired, or the authors figured it out themselves. These are not the only options. Dismissing aliens as silly and philosophical is not valid when the idea of a God is even more silly and philosophical.
