CIRCULAR REASONING, is what every religion does. Everyone points to their holy writings and so what. Try debating a Christian or Jew or Hindu sometime. I bet they can point to "miracles" too.
"The book I like says"...... Yes and so what? Get in line take a number.
Now how selfish of you to think my rejection of your religion and god belief is a personal attack on you. You need to learn the difference between your rights, and the separate issue of having the ability to demonstrate what you claim is evidence based and credible beyond your own personal bias.
You certainly by law in the secular west don't have to change your answers. Neither do Christians or Jews or Hindus. They have as much evidence for their claims as you do for yours.
The earth is 4 billion years old. The universe is 14 billion years old. Those are scientific facts not up for debate. Religion started in an age of scientific ignorance. It was understandable people made bad guesses and started religions as a result of their scientific ignorance, but we know better now.
You can make claims about your book and about your hero all you want but nobody is under any obligation by law to buy your arguments, and most certainly not under any obligation to refrain from telling you why your claims are wrong.
LEARN the difference between legal human rights, and the separate issue of being able to prove what you claim through an unbias neutral process, which you are NOT using. None of us here are treating you differently than any other person with a different book or different god claim. Get in line, take a number.
