Trying to tell us that your "car" is a real car is laughable. I'm going to go buy my car from the reality dealership, not from "Invisible Sky Daddies R Us".

Bw, it was a way of trying to relate an actual event to something you might grasp.
Sorry if you missed it.
If you peddled something that demonstrably mattered...

Find the cure for Fundementia!
Yes, it's tough to grasp the fundamentally ungraspable.
Ever notice how often Christians bounce from the argumentum ad populum to the No True Christian argument and back again?
"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."

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
