How would you distinguish faith in something real from faith in the nonexistent?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Then we have you, and your argument from ignorance.
Who are people more likely to take notice of?
Many many many reject abiogenesis.
Back to seeking safety and protection behind some improvised phalanx of idiots and ignoramuses, are we? Ouuuu, serried ranks of wishthinkers, gleaming cohorts of scientifically illiterates, fearsome!

I suppose one can't entirely rule out the possibility that Jesus will be handing out juice boxes when the little bus empties at the pearly gates. Otherwise . . .
God loves me even if you think I am simple minded. God loves you too even though your pride may getting in the way of you repenting. Anyways, God shows His creative work to us everyday. He did a great job.

Do some basic biology courses into human anatomy and see why the designer was incompetent.

Rev, any god who is sadistiic enough to be responsible for your level of inveterate and seemingly inborn stupidity can't really love you, and probably isn't holding out anything nice for you to take once you get there.

You're getting a little preachy Rev. This is what happens when a god botherer empties his/her arsenal with no effect. We've all heard this silly shit thousands of times. If your pathetic excuse for a God really loved us he would have prevented you from inundating us with your inanity. Or maybe, just maybe, your ignoramus God would have thought it a good idea to imbue you with an argument worthy of consideration.

I have faith in God's Word and what He say is truth. Perhaps you never have seen a subatomic particle but you have faith that they are real. So you see, we both have faith.
