I've examined the possibilty. Don't forget that I, at one point, believed in God. I eventually disgarded the possibility as truth when it became clear that God has about as much credibility as the previously mentioned pink elephant.

I follow spiritualness as well, you do not. I think what we see as credible changes because of this. Again why I don't like to go into deep detail.

Occam's Razor eliminates the need for the spirtual component. Chance and Coincidence explain events far better than 'supernatural, invisible, physic's defying, omnipotent intervention.'

yeah, I figured I ended up making it sound like that. I never came in here making the claim that God exists, I made the claim that he has the possiblity of existing.

God is a possibility right along there with the pink elephant. I do not dispute the possibility. I just challenge the notion that faith in something without any supporting evidence at all is a rational thing.

well technically 2+2+ could = 6, if we agreed that 2 was actually what we would put for 3....

We'd be deluding ourselves into believing that 2 was really 3. If 2 = 3, then 2 is not 2.

.... I am not "conceding," Its that that is how they would come down. It wasn't.. my last retort was faith, and without it I would lose... it would be... Standstill, then I'd still say Faith. Whats the problem? A religious faith just doesn't turn into anything someone who isn't religious.. So even though to someone that believes might think the faith issue would turn the table.. it doesn't make sense to the otherside. It stays a standstill.

He's a possibility and that's all he's got going for him other than your desperate desire for his existance. That does make the belief or faith in him rational.
