It's too bad the fundies aren't as eager as they claim to pay money to those who can prove evolution.

But of course not. That would involve admitting they're wrong, and they can never, ever do that.

With all due respect, you guys have the exact same problem.

This is a really bad place to start that shit.  I suggest you just walk away while you can still walk.  (They'll devolve your legs back into flippers if you don't.  Knowledge is power y'know.)

How so?

Tell a Christian that God isn't real, they'll say that's not true. Give them proof, they'll counter with a Bible quote and call you an infidel.

Tell an atheist that God is real, they'll say that's not true. Give them proof, they'll list off scientific breakthroughs and call you a monkey.

As far as the amount of faith goes, the biggest difference between Christians and atheists is our choice of vocabulary.

Now I'm intrigued. I've never seen "proof" of anything outside of mathematics. Nor have I ever seen valid evidence for the existence of any deity. Please, provide.

I'm not the guy to go to for that. I'll probably just say something that only has some evidence, and then get called out as a liar, then flames will start, and I'll be bludgeoned to death with a copy of "The God Delusion".

So in other words you have no evidence and aren't willing to admit that fact. Got it.

[CJ1145]

I'm not going to let you draw me out like that.

If you're so sure of yourself, let's see what you've got.

Tell a fundie bacteria can evolve TO EAT RADIATION and they'll make up something about crappy soviet engineering being part of gods plan and call you a heathen for saying that makes no sense.

• Also, a smart God would create all creatures out of the same DNA code, because otherwise, we would not be able to eat each other.
  
• It doesn't matter if your a christian or not to get to heaven. All that matters is that you accept the Lord Jesus Christ in your heart and truly believe in him and that is all that matters. You don't have to be a Christian in order to do that.
  

[li]Yes, science has got us out of the 'Dark Ages', certainly, but at what price? I think I'd be much happier if I were living in the so-called Dark Ages than now. Then there was certainty, now only doubt all the time.

I want to laugh at how retarded people can be but then i remember that these people ACTUALLY BELIEVE what they are saying. They can, and will, pollute other minds with the same filth.

I keep telling myself that its not their fault. They dont know. I try desperately to convince myself that this isnt the future of humanity but each and every day full of retarded comments whittles down my faith until there will be nothing left and i will become one of them (is that sentence grammatically correct? commas and whatnot?).

I see it as a failure in myself that i lack the skills to teach these kind of people. I see it as a failure in humanity that no one tries to help these people.

Microevolution is by no means against my religion. And besides, any god that didn't give its creation some ability to adapt would be pretty stupid, right?

What I've got about what?

I was going to say what's your inconceivably convincing proof that there is no god, but scratch that. I have somewhere to be soon and don't have time for a drawn-out debate.

I really hope this guy was just trolling

Fun fact: "Macroevolution" is just a lot of "microevolution".

Ah, well, here's the thing. The burden isn't on the one who lacks belief in something to provide evidence for its non-existence; the burden is on the person making the assertion that it exists.
