Let`s look at the reason St. Francis of Assisi became a monk. When he became sick on a military campaign, he had a vision of an angel telling him to become a holy man. There`s a few possible explanations for this vision: 1, he was so sick he was hallucinating, 2, he was crazy(unlikely given that he was an eloquent speaker later on), 3, he lied about it, or 4, it actually happened. This was just the first of many visions he had throughout his life. Concrete evidence? of course not. No evidence at all? No. If the evidence cannot be proven, it is not evidence. That is how science works. If you can prove it beyond reasonable doubt, it exists. If you put out wild theories with no proof. Like God existing… then it doesn't exist. Those are the facts. I am not a creationist nuttter, I am not a madman who fire bombs abortion clinics, I am not against science (I love science), but you are another close-minded "My way is the only good way" atheist. I'll give you two pictures of what that way of thinking can lead to. The moment you start thinking your way of thinking is automatically better than that of others, you're no better than them. So do you think your way of thinking (that no ways of thinking are better than others) is better than other ways of thinking? There's only one way of thinking that is worse than others, and that's thinking what you think is better than what other thinkers are thinking. It's called being ethnocentric, and you and Heart are rife with it. Your mod is probably the only reason you are even accepted in this community, Mevans. Which by the way, I know it means "several men with large penises" in British slang.

You cannot convince me. You cannot stop me believing. If you want to think there's no hope for this world, that you just enter oblivion after death, that people don't need any form of moral guide (which by its nature contradicts the first belief) to do "what's right", and that there is no purpose, then fine. I'll say a prayer for you and hope I don't learn you're in Hell when I die. The funny thin is, there's two theories on just what Hell is. The first and older theory is the stereotypical torture pit. The second one is that Hell is simply Earth if God didn't exist, a place where the concept of morality doesn't exist, and nobody cares about anybody but themselves, in an eternal cycle of theft, assault, rape, and other crimes that are not considered bad there because morality is but a shadow of a memory in the back of the minds of the damned. Excuse me? Did you actually see the point I was making? I wasn't disagreeing with what you said, I was just pointing out a contradiction.

And no, "Mevans" does not mean anything penis-related in British slang or any other slang. It's a name. Evans is part of that name. "Your mod is probably the only reason you are even accepted in this community"... you do realise that without my mod this community wouldn't even exist, right?

And all the rest of that smug, hateful rant you just typed would honestly be better directed at others. Since I haven't even really said anything in this debate, and I haven't even said which 'side' I 'support'. I think you are
