This Will Cause Believers To Lose Their Shit
https://www.rawstory.com/2018/03/top-10-...lieve-god/

Quote:Here are the top 10 reasons I don’t believe in God

Quote:1: The consistent replacement of supernatural explanations of the world with natural ones.
When you look at the history of what we know about the world, you see a noticeable pattern. Natural explanations of things have been replacing supernatural explanations of them. Like a steamroller. Why the Sun rises and sets. Where thunder and lightning come from. Why people get sick. Why people look like their parents. How the complexity of life came into being. I could go on and on.
All these things were once explained by religion. But as we understood the world better, and learned to observe it more carefully, the explanations based on religion were replaced by ones based on physical cause and effect. Consistently. Thoroughly. Like a steamroller. The number of times that a supernatural explanation of a phenomenon has been replaced by a natural explanation? Thousands upon thousands upon thousands.

The sun rises and sets because it rides a chariot across the sky.

Thunder and lightning come from Thor.

People get sick because of Loki.

Sad lapse. Loki is more ingenious than that.

Yep, won't make much difference to the devoutly faithful.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Min, do you honestly believe any of these points are strong?

If you do, I will refute it tomorrow. But you know better. You really do.

Here we go again.  Gonna tell us about the sight of the love of the face of the thing that inherits the mystery of the guides that lead to the true prince?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

He is correct, only Odin has the answers.
