Religion is a hypothesis.

  1. isn't it interesting that many don't have a clue the importance of or how to weigh evidence to arrive at the rational solution.

    i guess it truly is part and parcel of why mankind has been and will always be in some sort of pickle

    people CAN believe that a PICKLE could create the universe, we are in deep vinegar :D

  2. Believe what? I didn't say I believe, or disbelieve either. The truth is, at this point, unknowable.

  8. do you believe the evidence 'for' is greater than the evidence 'for not"?

    Faith is belief without supporting evidence.

    The Big Bang theory was postulated to explain evidence found by astronomers. It may be wrong, but it is not at all faith-based.

    The God theory was pulled out of some ancient ignoramuses' asses. It is not at all evidence-based.

    Science is not one of your strong points. :p

  10. I don't think the evidence of one necessarily disproves the other. For instance, science has proven that evolution is fact, but that fact does not prove, or disprove the existence of a "God".
