    Well, seems like everyone on this thread believes there was a cataclysmic flood.

    Onto the next thing the Bible didn’t make up …

    Confirmed, Sumerian polytheism is the one true religion and the Bible tried to cover it up

    The Bible confirms that Sumerian polytheism used to be a thing.

    Sounds like two people arguing over opinions that can’t be backed up with a shred of evidence, to me.

    I guess you when you believe life is infinite, you can splurge on 90m videos that give you a deeper understanding of what you already understand.

    “shred of evidence … [and this is key] … to me.”

    So go right ahead and post that indisputable evidence that one of these guys is correct if you think it’s a “me” problem…

    Where is the evidence that any evidence would wean you off your spaghetti monster ?

    That’s what I thought, you get mad when people don’t believe your fairy tales, but can’t offer up a shred of evidence to support it… I freely admit the Spaghetti monster isn’t real .. so that’s a really stupid attempt at a “gotcha”…

    I can see my attempts to compare viruses to unicorns have fallen on deaf ears. Turns out we’re both believers.

    Let’s go back to you saying there is evidence to back one of these guy”s opinions… post that evidence. You trying to make this about viruses and flying Speghetti monsters is just admitting you ain’t got shit…

    I think you have me confused for someone else.

    I merely pointed out that everyone on this thread seemed to be a flood believer.

    And until you stop stomping your feet and quantify what would amount for evidence, you’re turning me into a skeptic.

    Yes, but not to fling “evidence” at you, but rather to point out that evidence is person relative.

    Clearly, evidence is person-relative. Look around you. There are highly educated people who believe there is a God and there are dumbasses who don’t.

    So, angain I ask, what would stand as evidence for you ?

    No it's not ... evidence is evidence. What you are talking about is blind faith ... that is person relative.

    And while you were levitating above the highly educated people I’ve referenced, I’ve nailed you, dead to rights, as a believer based on authority.

    If you point is that I believe in science -- knowledge and thought that offers evidence and often PROOF to back up their ideas -- then yeah, I'm 100% guilty.

    Now let's get back to you believing there is a magic invisible man in the sky that keeps track of your dirty thoughts ...

    It is impossible for me to proceed as you have not come close to accounting for the kind of evidence you’d find inviting if not compelling.

    You appear to be the kind of atheist who conveys to a theist (disingenuously ?) that there is some shred of evidence (that would turn you into a theist) while also (here it is) blustering that no such evidence exists.

    Incorrect, if someone offered compelling evidence, I'd certainly consider it. If someone offered proof, I'd change my mind. The thing is, I've been down this road before and it always ends up at the circular logic of "The Bible is correct because The Bible says it's correct"... that seems to be all you guys got ...
