The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know ****?" And then she went back to reading her book. I wonder if that story is too long to make it a sig line? Cute story, but since god is a canard, anyone is equipped to discuss god, heaven and hell, and life after death. If you have some factually based proof of the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera, spit it out and I'll be glad to read it. To which I'd say exactly what the little girl said. " You don't know ****" Well, of course you'd say that because you cannot come up with a sliver of factually based proof for the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera. Mankind has been evolving its beliefs in gods and god for thousands of years, but there isn't any proof for any of it. Even the Age of Enlightenment wasn't able to do away with the horrors of "organized" religion. Harry, you *really* need some new material. You've repeated your gospel here at least 1,000 times. Maybe. I'm still waiting for one of the god acolytes here to present *any* factually based proof for the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera. Why is that? Nervous? Intellectual curiosity, something Trumpites find heretical. -- Posted with my iPhone 7+. |

To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know ****?" And then she went back to reading her book. I wonder if that story is too long to make it a sig line? Cute story, but since god is a canard, anyone is equipped to discuss god, heaven and hell, and life after death. If you have some factually based proof of the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera, spit it out and I'll be glad to read it. To which I'd say exactly what the little girl said. " You don't know ****" Well, of course you'd say that because you cannot come up with a sliver of factually based proof for the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera. Mankind has been evolving its beliefs in gods and god for thousands of years, but there isn't any proof for any of it. Even the Age of Enlightenment wasn't able to do away with the horrors of "organized" religion. Harry, you *really* need some new material. You've repeated your gospel here at least 1,000 times. Maybe. I'm still waiting for one of the god acolytes here to present *any* factually based proof for the existence of god, heaven, hell, life after death, et cetera. Why is that? Nervous? Intellectual curiosity, something Trumpites find heretical. The proof you are looking for is an inward, private and individual thing. You don't have to subscribe but it's not your call to define anything to anyone. I've always thought that those who have the most to say about religion and/or are the most critical of the beliefs of others seem to be the most insecure in their own skin. No, the proof *I* am looking for is factually based, backed up with evidence. And I'm not trying to define anything in god. What I can define is what is NOT there, such as any factually based proof. But you CAN"T prove that it doesn't exist. |

The burden of proof does not work that way. |
