This is not about winning or losing. How can one lose to magical thinking?

It's about hoping that the some who read, and may not participate, start using their rational thoughts rather than rote faith as a path to the truth.

Religion has never disproven that which science has proven, however, science has proven many things religion once thought were true.

Think about that for one moment. Then ask yourself why that might be.

cupper3, your sign doesn't make sense. The God of the Bible gives immortality and incorruption eventually to all mankind. How can He die since He gives immortality?

Besides, I know He is alive. If He died, the very fabric of the universe would go to nothingness.

Can science give a rational explanation of Christ walking on the water? being resurrected after being dead for three days? ascending to God in the heavens? feeding over 5,000 people on a couple loaves of bread and a few fish? healing the blind? raising the dead? Call me when science has that figured out.

Nah....their best response is to simply deny it. It's what they do..they can't actually argue it...they'll just cover their eyes and ears and pretend they don't hear, proverbially.

Most intelligent, sensible, educated people don't believe those things happened.

I heard.

But I simply don't believe the bible's fairy tales.

Wrong again.

It's been around since long-dead, anonymous, primitive men invented it.

No science cannot explain any of that. Only magical thinking can.

Science can't even create a fly let alone an entire universe. Our God is so beyond science that scientists can't figure Him out or how He created the universe let alone that fly.

I think some people put way too much faith in science.

Science from the 30's, 40's 50's and 60's: Smoking is good for you! Light up a Camel ciigarette!.
