    None of this is evidence, its not the realm of the rational or of science so you wonder why many of us think of your prattling as being the realm of the Imagination. I asked for proof of your sides claims that is of deities using the tools of reason and science. If we can finally get close to finally seeing the event horizon of a Black Hole its to me far more magical that our reason and scientific genius can do that and its far more real to me than claims of the religious which uses faith as its only tool - which is meaningless as a tool. Faith doesn't move mountains people its humans with machines crafted by science and out expertise that can if we desire just look at strip mining of coal then if we desire we can use the same faculties and tools to restore the strip mined area to a pleasant appearance. And its our tools of reason and science is what we have and what will rise our species further to where we can engineer humans to be better and bypass natural evolution.

    If these divine powers matter they should show themselves, be weighed and measured to our needs and if they don't matter be tossed aside like we tossed aside other things humans no longer need to consider such as the flat earth and the hollow world theories for better ones.

    Science is the only tool proven to lead to a better human civilization not faith, not religion and not holding on to the outmoded deity concepts.

    I was facing a vigilante charge in 2002 for daring to go up against a black drug gang who were selling drugs to kids from the school across the road, so my solicitor sent me to a shrink, no doubt he was hoping I'd be pronounced nutty so he could get me off on a "guilty but insane" plea, but the shrink found me sane!
    So I got 3 months jail and if there are any nuts in the story it's the Leicester (England) police for arresting and charging me, and the magistrates for sending me to the can..:)
    Hey PF members, as a matter of interest what would you have done in my place, turned a blind eye to the drug dealing?

    Atheists are always proclaiming their own intellectualism and rationality. They pretend to be oh so smart.
    Why then do they renounce their atheism at a far higher percentage rate than Christians do?

    The drug interests own police and judges, and you did threaten their business, your lucky they didn't send some people to beat the hell out of you. I found as a rule its best to stay on criminal leaders and groups good side and ask their bosses since I'm in their turf as a disabled person I would like to ask with respects to their position to have him and their people not hurt me. And in return I'll try to not cause them any problems. Hell some in my life gave me work for cash usually rolling around and look for cop activity they didn't control and other things that were simple and for this I got good money. But you show disrespect they can and will hurt you. This was true all over the place I traveled.

    Seriously back on the topic since Atheists largely embrace science how are we anti-science, I think reason and science are the best options to advance our species over superstitions and fantasy religions are largely steeped in.

    As brilliantly prophesied by God's faithful servant, Dr. Lance Wallnau last October:

    Actually Atheists don't do anything of the sort because the data in that chart is misleading.

    http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Pew_Forum's_U.S._Religious_Landscape_Survey

    So Christianity LOSES 35 million while only picking up 0.7 million non-religious?

    By anyone's math that is a massive loss for Christianity and huge increase for non-religious.

    FIFTY times more Christians lost their faith than they managed to win converts from the non-religious. In terms of capitalism that kind of loss of customers would be devastating to the bottom line. Probably explains why to many churches are shutting down these days.

    http://www.patheos.com/blogs/christ...losing-so-many-churches-in-the-united-states/

    Note that the US population in 1917 was only 103 million. Today it is 3 times that number so why are there 50% fewer churches?

    Unfortunately it won't matter. A decline of followers is "insured" by Revelation prophecy, a rise in followers means "we are growing stronger". Quite ingenious actually.
