    This thread has degraded since I left my walls of text. Oh well.

    Says the guy who thinks that you don't need to disprove something to think that it doesn't exist.

    Oh and another example- gravity.

    Just a quick point here: science never seeks to disprove anything. It doesn't have the capacity to do so. The scientific method is explicitly proof-based, as it takes many ideas from philosophical systems of deduction, but it only seeks to discover the truth. A hypothesis can be rendered false or true, but no experiment is designed to disprove, it is designed to show a result. That's not to say that ancillary ideas might be formed based on those results, which can then prove or disprove something. But insofar as the existence of God is concerned, there is no way for science to deal with the question, and thus no way to prove/disprove it. Things like this are outside the scope of pure reason and the scientific method. That doesn't invalidate them, however.

    Thank you, sir. Any ability I had to make a good post was shut down by anger.

    If you could reason with CheFlegel, you'd also have the ability to divide by zero- Link

    I feel some anger too. You are basically saying that your opinion cannot be disputed but other's opinions can because of what that opinion is.

    There is no evidence for the existence of a God. Furthermore, it is impossible to disprove to disprove the existence of one. This isn't my opinion. Atheism doesn't need any proof. The only responses I was getting from you were that you don't believe in the sun or gravity, thinking that they were comparable to a lack of belief in a god, which they are not.

    I dunno. I thought it was funny, so I've pretty much already completed my goal when I typed it, as I got a small amount of enjoyment from it. Also, its at your expense, so clearly you won't like it.

    No you misunderstood. My response was to the fact that you said that since you cannot disprove disproof I needed to prove you otherwise.

    You remind me of the socially awkward kid at school.

    I really do not know why you even bother posting in the coffee house because you give little to any justifiable posts, all you do is rage, and you think everything is lol worthy. Like seriously there is no reason for you to be posting if it has no reason to be posted.

    No youre just annoying and not funny. Youre the same as any other twelve year old boy link. And you should honestly not be allowed to post in the coffee house because all you do is troll.

    You should just be blocked from the coffee house. I dont not undestand why the mods have let a troll go on this long in this section.
