I find that any real discussions over philosophy and understanding could be best gathered through the different views. What am i supposed to do go to a Christian forum and say you believe in God, cool man me too! It seems though nothing can be understood but what is already understood from what i see on this forum and the constant ridicule of the faithful.
Im operating under the assumption that you know something to be more true or more important than others things. Do you work under the understanding of some unquestioned truth or do you recognize a belief as true?
You see constant ridicule, because the religious are constantly making ridiculous claims.
More true or more important? Either you point to the evidence that supports your claim to knowledge, or accept that you have no such knowledge. If you think you have evidence, fine, lets see it.
If your evidence turns out to be bullshit, I don't want you crying to me about the brute force of fact.
That's whats true to me, that's what's important.
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!

Demonstrable ones CRod. We take ideas, run them through the grinder, attempt to prove them wrong every way possible, and what we're left with after the dust settles and people's pride is severely injured is what we call knowledge.
