Re: Faith and reasonable doubt
Either way, the point of this thread is that believing Greg is the killer requires less faith than the converse. Likewise, a lot more faith is required to deny evolution than to accept it.
As best as is possible we can verify the conclusion of evolution, so under the definition set out in the OP, it does not require faith, whereas omnipotent beings do require faith.
i don't mean to be assinine, but way to logically prove the obvious.
has the doublespeak of interchanging "faith" for "science" and vice versa gotten so bad that this is now actually a pertinant point instead of a truism?
