gakface, in all fairness... there have been statements of supposed irrefutable truth from both sides of the discussion.
i'm not too sure about the idea that if God didn't exist, we would make him up anyway. it seems like if we had no inner knowledge of God, the thought wouldn't occur to us. kind of like the argument that we would never know it was dark unless we had some idea of what light is. how do we know what wrong is if we have not some external guidance of what right is?

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
