Science has much better answers than "God did it" (preaching, best)

You know, I feel sorry for people like you. Going through life with tunnel-vision, the only thing you're concerned with is telling everyone who doesn't believe as you do that they're going to burn in hell.

It's a fact that science provides answers while your religion and your bible do not. You claim that biblical prophecies have been fulfilled, and that stories like the one of Noah's ark are fact, yet you don't bother to do the slightest research before claiming such impossible things are true. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, little man, and you provide none.

Science is not biased, it's neither good nor evil, it simply exists to find knowledge and facts. It's constantly checking and rechecking itself for validity, and when something is found to be in error or not the best answer, then changes are made and the checking and rechecking begin again. It's the quality control of knowledge.

Science isn't about taking things on faith, like religion. Religion and god-belief require no evidence, and thus we give them no credence. Provide us with scientific proof that your bible is 100% true as you say, and we will be happy to reconsider our stance on your beliefs.

Spouting hateful words at us does nothing for your cause, and only makes you look foolish. It's a bad way to get us to change our minds. If you were a missionary going to a foreign country, you'd learn the language so that you could tell the natives about your religion. So I suggest that you learn a little of our language in order to convince us that you're right and we're wrong.

Go to college (though I'm not sure you're old enough yet, your writing seems very young and uneducated to me). Take some biology courses, some chemistry courses, some physics courses, and then come back and explain to us just how your bible makes sense in scientific terms. Give us the evidence we need, talk to us in our own language and we'll be happy to listen.

Or, keep ranting and hissing and spitting like an angry kitten, and we'll laugh at you again, pat you on the head, and send you outside to play.

Mercury Cougar, I will respond to you later on when I have access to a computer. You know I don't take anything standing down. Especially from the likes of you. So prepare to be demolished. That is all.

Scientific facts supporting the bible, grasshopper. That's what we're asking for, that's what we understand. We await the scintillating saber of your cutting-edge knowledge, come to slay us where we stand, and make us instant believers in your vengeful god.

Seriously, back up your claims about the bible and all its prophecies and the flood, et cetera with solid scientific evidence and there are several of us here that will be happy to discuss it with you. Opportunity to convert us is knocking.

Speak for yourself, not others. Quite a few people in fact do take great consolation from the knowledge that the scientific method has given them. Example youtube.com/watch?v=afGkv0IT4dU

The sound is not great but when asked about this very thing Neil Tyson answers:

Sure, this kind of thing is not consolation for everyone (what is?), but it shows that you might be a little too quick to just declare by fiat that "science won't be so comforting or fulfilling" as quite clearly people like Neil Tyson, and myself, garner great consolation from the understanding science gives us of the great circle of life, our place within it and how we shall return to being a part of it when we die just as it has been a part of us all our lives.

Neanderthal man couldn't have gone to collage, because collage is a thing rather than a place. Also, collage originated sometime in the early 20th century, so that's a bit past the time period in which we'd normally see a Neanderthal.

As far as the rest of your statement...do you or do you not give credence to scientific facts and evidence? Or, are you yet another one who believes that the bible is 100% factual?

The art that ancient man engaged in was pretty rudimentary. I doubt they ever engaged in collage, let alone went to one. Is it possible therefore that you are talking about college?

If so then I am not sure what your point is as college has little to do with people believing or not in the idea of a god.

In fact if your argument is that they believed in gods based on absolutely no education at all, then I think you are making our point for us. Maybe if they HAD been more educated then the idea of religion would not have so easily taken hold?
