Summations Only

I object to people telling blatant untruths about everything being allowed to start a thread. For example, I'll start with the first point Chuck77 made.

quote:

10. You vigorously deny the existence of God, ....
  —Chuck77

I'm an atheist and I don't. I just don't believe that any kind of god exists, because there's absolutely no, verifiable, repeatable, empirical evidence for the existence of a god or gods as described by theists.

quote:

---

....yet you frequently blame Him for all the "evils" in the world,...
  —Chuck77

Not true. Atheists don't blame the Thor for anything.

quote:

---

....all the natural disasters,.....
  —Chuck77

---

Not true. Atheists don't blame Thor for anything.

quote:

---

.....and everything else under the sun that is wrong in modern society.
  —Chuck77

---

Not true. Atheists don't blame Thor for anything.

But Fred Hoyle said it, therefore it must be true!

Item 5 on Chuck's list:

quote:

---

5. You laugh at the Supernatural, even though scientists have calculated the odds of life forming by natural processes to be estimated less than 1 chance in 10 to the 40,ooo power — But you find nothing wrong with believing that billions of years full of random mutations would result in the impossible.

I should have said more in my previous post, which was to show that there was a scientist who made a calculation similar to the one Chuck referred to.

Not similar. The same. This was the exact same "calculation" Chuck referred to.Anybody can make a statement. Anybody can write down any number and call it a calculation. The catch is to demonstrate that calculation. Please provide us with the calculation.

Thanks dwise1I learned a lot from you post. And it was very funny, too!It would be nice if the person who put the number of 10 to the power of 40 000 or million or billion or trillion or whatever on this forum (hint Chuck77), to come around to try and demonstrate how that number was obtained. That would be the way of evaluating it. Statements don't mean much. Anyone can claim anything (Hoyle) and others can act as parrots (Chuck77). I would look at demonstrations.Edited by Pressie, : Added nameEdited by Pressie, : No reason given.
