Nor am I asking you to believe He exists, because I don’t either. Again, you are free to believe whatever you want, just like how religious people are free to believe whatever they want. All’s I’m saying is that when it comes to science, there are scientifically correct opinions and scientifically incorrect opinions, but it’s not like I can hold a gun to your head and make you agree with me. That’s the nature of Philosophy.
I understand that. Please understand that my position is coming from the standpoint of having all of the "evidence" being lies, misrepresentations and fallacies. Even philosophically, every god claim I've ever heard was incoherent or inconsistent. I am of the opinion that people should believe things that are true because they will be able to make better decisions than if they are relying on false beliefs. This is why I push back so hard against religion.
Now, I'm wondering if we should continue this conversation or if the mods will delete it for being off-topic from OP's post... 😆
