<t>So, going bible fundie on science now? There are no scientific theories on "end times". Let alone laws. This is not mathematics. You, sir, are an insult to science and our species' intelligence. It is all religious pseudoscience, and you sir should be ashamed of stating any ...

And so, as none of this happened as "predicted", what's next?

Dude... No offense, but consider taking some meds. I read through a few of your copy-pastes, you should seek help.

<t>A-ha! I knew my long absence would produce a thread cringe-worthy of my return! Right, on the questions/claims of Mickiel. Atheism is the default stance. Just like alochnessmonsterism. (not a real word, made an example there) Let me explain. A human is born with no belief in...

<t>To be honest, I did my utmost to provide all the current facts and hypotheses, and all you did is reject them outright without a single actual point, and started spewing prophecies. I can make prophecies myself: There will be many wars to come. Nations shall clash against th...

I do not believe in such things.

Why? Does sanity need a reason?

<t>Mickiel, I am afraid you are far off target with your last statement. The bible is by far not historical, in fact, there are only a handful of names that are gotten right, the pharaohs are mistaken in their days of rule (names do not match the time of rule, as the Egyptians were meticu...

<t>This is the fallacy itself, the premise of accepting that if many people believe in something, than it is true. Unlucky for you, as far as voting is considered, reality is not up for a vote. What is demonstrable is what there is, what cannot be proven as a working, testable model, does not. ...

<t>As I mentioned, a logical fallacy is comitted in a discussion as well. So, do you mean a god exists only in the minds of those who choose? Because this is also the meaning of a delusion. ("The God Delusion"? I see what you did there, Dawkins, well played.) I have no relation...

<r>You seem to be Logical Fallacy 101. What you just attempted is one of the worst fallacies to commit in a debate or discussion - "Appeal to majority". Just because some stupid idea is believed by many people, it does not mean it is true. Virtually everyone believed the Earth was flat so...

<t>This is why I added specifically "unless in war times" in my post a few posts above.
