Are you describing your belief in god? If so, you nailed it perfectly. There is no facts or evidence for gods existence. If there were, they would be in textbooks right next to the facts about gravity and how electricity works. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

What we should do is learn about how amazingly fine tuned gravity is and the mysterious and amazing power of electricity and then turn to other books to learn that these things are just some of the reasons why it is only reasonable to believe in God. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Why do Xtions want creationism taught in schools right alongside Darwinism. If god is a scientifically proven fact like you claim, shouldn't it be in science books right beside the science of flight and physics? If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You guessed correctly. |

I'll have to pick some up next time I visit. It in the bakery or bread aisle? The President is a fink. |

Bread aisle. It's with the other private brands like Pepperidge Farms. |

Bob, I'll answer this in one of the other religious threads. Suffice it to say here that I have never claimed God is a proven scientific fact, in fact I have said explicitly that it is not in science's purview to so this. It provides evidence that lead one to the logical conclusion there is a God. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Only if that's your intent when you start. Nobody begins with a blank slate and ends up logically at a god. Quite the opposite, in fact. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I think you're going to have to give EB the last word here and take it to another thread without further comment here. Even that may not work. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
