[QUOTE="newusername, post: 6001997, member: 562064"] You're still not fully understanding the point. I won't believe in anything until I have reasonable evidence to suggest it is true. Any person can make a claim, but until there is positive evidence supporting it, I will remain skeptical. My disbelief of god is not a choice, or a denial of anything; it is an appraisal of all the evidence that has been put before me. Part of the reason why I continue to have the god conversation is because I'd like to find a reasonable explanation for why so many people believe what they do, and I really have yet to hear a sound argument. Unlike the religious, I am open to changing my mind when the evidence supports a different position. Evolution is a favourite of mine because it is so strong and misunderstood but I would drop it in a second if there was something more plausible, or if it was demonstrated as false. Anything that I don't know the answer to, I will acknowledge as unknown although I may put forth the different ideas that might explain it. It is not an assumption; you must have had a poor history and science education if you think any of it corroborates a particular faith and god as "real". [/QUOTE]
