    The point is that it doesn't need to be proven. It's accepted prima facie until proven otherwise.
    That's why it's called "faith."

    No. Even the Bible says "faith comes from knowing". There's hope then there's faith. Don't get the two confused.

    I can hope someone picks me up for work tomorrow if my car doesn't start, but I have faith that my car will start.

    I have inductive reasoning to conclude my car will start. That doesn't mean it will. I have no evidence, deductive or otherwise, that a god exists. To live as if I do is hope, just as I have no evidence that anyone will pick me up. At least though, with my example, there are people I can fall back on and I will know in a short amount of time if my hopes are realized. Religious faith will never be realized while you are living and that's about all that matters on a forum since none of us can really talk about what happens after we die.

    It's funny how you try to claim others worship Darwin, when you are more concerned about him than probably anybody else on this forum.

    As I've said before those I know with a God in their life are far happier than those I know without a God in theirs.

    That is like saying your admitting to be a Vegetarian when you debate about Peta or local stockyards killing innocent cattle for Walmart beef.


    you don't see the bias part? That is like asking Kramer to be a judge on toddlers and tiaras and it came down to a black kid and Honey Boo Boo
    The difference is that Science is based on provable concepts as we know them, but it isnt hard-line. Science has no problem admitting its wrong when its wrong. You pick a subject and regardless of the evidence presented to you, you still find some squirming room to fit your beliefs no matter how rediculous the notion nor how many facts slap you in the face.

    You would fit in perfect here Mouse.... http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/


    show me the proof......post the link........prove me wrong.......
    This is getting tired, most of us have provided facts throughout the years on this forum... you just choose to ignore the facts. I'm not going to rehash what has been proven to you countless times. I could post all the facts in the world and you would still argue your conspiracy crap... whats the point? If you want the facts, look them up... They are there, wide open for everyone to see. There is no conspiracy to hide the evidence. It's there. Just look.


    like Apollo 11?
    Seriously.... your still with this? AMPLE evidence has been provided proving it was fact... you just refuse to look at it because of your BELIEF.... whats the point in posting it again for the umpteenth time? Your just going to ignore it again and post some crazy conspiracy bull . The evidence is on my side. Again, the burden of proof is on you to prove otherwise. I dont want to hear some quak job psuedo-scientist that no one respects. I want real, concrete evidence that it was a hoax. The "scientists" that you use are equivilant to those that believe man walked the earth the same time as dinosaurs. You have no credibility.

    What I'm saying is.... Get even ONE of your so called "scientists" to produce a peer-reviewed piece of their research and get it approved, then we can talk. As it stands now, your like Will Farrell in the Land of the Lost movie. Just a funny character to laugh at without any hard evidence that is accepted by highly regarded scientists around the world.


    And I gladly accept that burden, start reading from page one and end up here and then see if I lived up to your standards.
    You dont. You never have. Your a joke... Entertainment.... thats it. No one here takes you seriously.

    The ONLY reason these posts continue is because of your hilariously beliefs. I bet most of us (including me) think your just trolling, and its quite funny. If your serious though, it make it even more hilarious!

    Your like the crazy cat lady on the block that believes the government is monitoring them and never leaves the house because of it.

    Thats how crazy you sound.


    so your saying you can never prove you actually love your children,

    You have no "faith" in them?
    Dont be an idiot for arguements sake, even I dont believe your THAT stupid. Faith in someone is quite real. Faith in the toothfairy is quite stupid. I believe even you can see the diference in that.

    If humans came from relatives of monkeys then why do relatives of monkeys and monkeys in general still exist? The evolution does not make sense in that case. However, if you say that birds and lizards came from dinosaurs then that does make sense since dinosaurs are gone and birds and lizards share a lot of similar characteristics with dinosaurs.

    Why wouldn't apes still exist? It's not like humans evolved from chimpanzees, so chimps still being around makes perfect sense.

    But how do you know humans came from monkeys? Were you there? I wasn't. Some bozos say humans came from a goo that was in a puddle on the ground of the Earth. Other bozos say humans came from monkeys.

    all living things originate from the same mono-cell creature which was the only type of life back then. humans & chimps' ancestors might look similar at one point of time in the process of evolution but you can't say today's monkeys are equal to the simians that would later evolve to humans & monkeys imho

    It will never be proved that Gods doesn't exist.
    It will never be proven that the flying spaghetti monster doesn't exist either, tbh.

    The only evidence that I have seen that makes the case that humans evolved from monkeys is certain celebs that look like monkeys. David Gregory looks like King Louie from the Jungle Book. Bob Costas and Ron Pearlman could be thrown into the King Louie club too.

    Because the only alternative (right now) is creation. It's like asking people in China why they eat so much rice.

    The context is that of faith in someone to do what they say they will do. The way you and many others use faith is to believe that something exists because someone told you it exists. That's faith in man, not faith in God. Faith in God can only occur if you know God, and since God hasn't revealed himself to the world, no one knows God. There's no way to have faith in the existence of something. It either exists or it does not exist. Faith is about trust, not about blind acceptance of the supernatural.

    Since that hurdle has perplexed man for over a century, man has morphed faith to be the simple belief that a certain god exists. Prior to that, it was simply accepted that this god existed, but the faith in this god was the goal, to believe his will was paramount to yours.

    Don't try to play off the onus of proof by inserting a requirement to just believe and equivocating that to faith.
