I don't agree that it's false. It may be false or true, I don't know. Unlike you, I'm not going to form any beliefs either way until I feel compelled to do so. And I especially don't hold false beliefs. That's besides the point though. The point is you knowingly hold an unproven belief, yet you scorn others for doing the same. Additionally, you did not dispute the fact that you practice blind faith. |
Erm... i think you misread my post again. I said i dont practice blind faith.
I'm thinking belief was a very context sensite statement that you're trying to take advantage of. Belief for me is not irrational belief. I believe that there is logic to the possibility. I do not blindly believe in the event without it beeing proven.
If you read my other post, i said that its just as likely that black holes just spew out their material regularly just like a quasar would.
Notice how all these possibilities have logic and are within the realm of possibility. Just cause i took a pick as to wich one looks the most likely to me, doesnt mean i have a religious belief supported on ilogical and convenient teachings. I support the possibility of the opposite just as much. Based on obvservation and studies beeing made i see a very strong possibility that the first comes to be the case.
What i scorn, before you put words on my mouth again, is religion. Religion is born of something that is a convinent creation of our brains when it fails to find cause for events and taken advantage of by oportunist individuals. God is the center piece of that, and is something that makes absolutely no sense and yet drives people to commit unspeakable crimes.
