There are no words to describe how stupid this website is. (Except perhaps "Bush")

Ok, since you obviously didn't understand me the first time, Basically, you and the Bible, are stating: - There is a God - People haven't proved that there isn't a God - Therefore, there must be a God. This is false reasoning, and a logical fallacy. Since you (and the Bible) are...

Quoted for accuracy.

I wish I had a sandwich like that...

Yet God is always referred to as "He" in the singular... Certainly an omnipotent being would not make silly grammar mistakes like that. Methinks the Biblical Scholars did not know their grammars... :rolleyes:

Related to proof, I would recommend reviewing the logical fallacy "Burdon of Proof". The Bible/Koran/etc is claiming (among other things) that: - There is a God - You can't disprove that there is a God By stating the first claim, the burdon of proof falls on the Bible or someone supporting...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell Controversy over stem cell research --- Many paralells are drawn with the Abortion debate:

Quite true, this should be in another thread. However, I disagree that it has nothing to do with politics. Currently, many political viewpoints are comming from a religious angle (preventing stem cell research, the fact that athiests cannot run for political office in some states, etc. - see...

Makes sense... So I guess I would say that I don't believe in a god, but I believe that is is possible there is some sort of god (though probably not of the biblical kind). Or is that contradictory?

Yes, Rimmer. I'm afraid it was global warming. But not the global warming you read in the news all the time. No. This is super-violent-terrorist-waiting-in-your-home-to-kill-you-in-horrifying-ways-global-warming.

Pretty much. If you are a newspaper company, you get money everytime someone reads your newspaper (through buying the newspaper AND through charging advertisers money based on how many people are reading your newspaper). So, the more people that read your newspaper - the more people buy your...

What are you if you believe in the possibility of a god? Like, you believe that it is possible that there is a god, even if that possibility is extremely small?

You poor, poor person... :(

I thought quote-mining was picking out only the information that will support an argument, and ignoring anything presented that doesn't support an argument. So far I haven't seen any information that doesn't support Mecha's argument, nor any argument or information brought up that there is...

Moreover, as Richard Dawkins says in A Devil's Chaplain: "The reason organized religion merits outright hostility is that, unlike belief in Russell's teapot, religion is powerful, influential, tax-exempt and systematically passed on to children too young to defend themselves. Children are not...

Dude, I am so comming with you.

As one of these said "other readers" I'm finding Mecha to be the one providing context and you doing nothing but asking him to provide more and different context for "other readers" (Not, of course, for your own benefit...). Were you so confident in your contexts, I, as an "other reader", would...

Have you taken into consideration any contributions BEFORE the Nobel prize was cooked up? What about the fact that that portion of the world was one of the first to develop writing? The first university? Some of the first mathematics, sciences, laws, and philosophies? Or do those not...

It's kinda funny that Solaris is the one actually using quotes from the Bible here, and not Walter... But seriously Walter, as posted before by Absinthe, Jesus didn't invalidate anything - the Old Testament still applies:

Again.
