Now i'll have to ask: what is the cutoff probability that does not require faith in god?

Anyone with half a brain can see that the logical conclusion here is that there is some kind of creator.

Well, half a brain is something of a serious handicap, i agree.

Okay, you are feeding him what he wants now. No, it is not logical to conclude that. Maybe it's because I have a whole brain that I can't see that what you are saying makes any sense. You are seeing what you want regardless of actual facts. Unfortunately this must be what royol was talking about. You are giving him exactly what he wants...illogical use of the word "logical".

Kill an animal and you will see no 'Logic' and no 'God'.

Actual facts????? where are the facts?

Nice avatar. Anyone feel like posting the OP in predicate logic?

Talk to you and we will see no sense.

Oh for crying out loud! If you had been following what was going on at all, you would see I was referring to the actual facts about science and trying to chalk them up to "God". You can't even see when someone agrees with you about a simple point can you? I told him he was giving you what you wanted...illogical use of the word "logical". Don't you pay attention?

I still say you are on a high horse though about all religion. While it is annoying for someone to disregard factual science and chalk everything up to "god", not all paths or religions do that. So to lump them all into the category of stupid only proves your ignorance of what you speak about.

Mr. Guy, I have to agree with you on this one as well. I see no sense at all to this statement. But then again, maybe if we join the club of those that see with half a brain we could try.

It gives undeserved credence to religion, a little like saying, 'It's logical to assume Father Christmas feeds his reindeers on oats'. You can see how silly that sounds, because what has logic to do with a mythical Father Christmas?

Could you learn to punctuate your sentences correctly?

Just because you feel your beliefs are more logical than mine, doesn't mean your opinions are logical, reasonable, or factual. You actually need to support them with evidence.

I am certain I could easily find 20 religious believers on this forum who consistently use logic and reason far better than you have. (In my opinion, the vast majority of them do, but I can easily find 20 where it would be obvious.) Until your usage of logic hits at least the median level for this forum, you might want to consider avoiding criticism of others' logic.
