Lately, I've watched a shitload of videos on evolution of eyes, skin, poison, flight, etc.
Sounds very convincing! Even the religious sponsored docos can be made to "sound " logical" if you have a reason to ignore the scientifically reviewed stuff. I just want to know who will the govt go to for advice on travelling to mars! The religious "Intelligent Designers" or the hard working high tech companies? If so why? Apparently and evidently, the " Intelligent Designers" are only good at "Intelligent" Deception of the highest order. Ask yourself, what real world benefits has ID been responsible for? I mean "in this life". Not tomorrow's! Tomorrow never comes!

WTF is this, Harris's personal Facebook wall or something?

My question to you was in response to your contention that atheists believe "God" doesn't exist. My position is I lack the belief that the character does exist. Now the ball is in your court. Nope - it's not that I have the belief that "God" does not exist - I do not have the belief that "God" does exist. It's the difference between saying I don't believe the coin came down head and saying I believe it came down tails. Please stop telling me and others what we believe. It's astonishingly arrogant.

Of course you can... if you don't mind me reporting you for deliberate misquoting.
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.'

Ignorance overload! WoW, Harris is one of those people I would like to take into a university biology lab and show him in person, exactly what is wrong with what he thinks. No hiding behind texts, no deflecting and ignoring points. Wait wait, uni lab may be too advanced, how about a high school lab.
And BTW fresh water and salt water do mix, if that were false we would see a halocline in the ocean.
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech  (August 4, 2014 at 11:02 am)Bad Wolf Wrote: And BTW fresh water and salt water do mix, if that were false we would see a halocline in the ocean. Halocline requires special conditions to happen. Nothing in the qur'an mentions those conditions... it just mentions that such a thing happens... but in a very imprecise way which reminds me of Aristotle's projectiles: ![[Image: bk1_img_168.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=www.vias.org%2Fphysics%2Fimg%2Fbk1_img_168.png)
