Deep down, the vast majority of them know it's bullshit; the fact that they wear seatbelts and take other precautions that PREVENT them from going to Paradise immediately, is the dead giveaway.

Yes or no, and why?<br /><br />To even ask the question is to entirely miss the point. Evolution isn't something you "believe in"; it's something you UNDERSTAND and ACCEPT -- one of the many benefits of having EVIDENCE in support of one's claims is that it continues to be true whether or not you believe in it.

The one and only reason I would ever become a theist would be if there was suddenly some EVIDENCE for the existence of gods -- that would be a matter of simple facts, with no emotional response required.

How is the liquid metal T-1000 able to do it?<br /><br />Presumably, something about mimetic polyALLOY the T-1000 is made of allows it to imitate the electrical field generated by a living thing. Better question is: if they can grow living tissue around a metal skeleton like that, why not just send back a few skin-covered hydrogen bombs to make SURE...

(spouses, children, relatives, friends) If so, can you prove it without mentioning things you do?<br /><br />To even ask the question is to entirely miss the point -- loving IS an action.

As someone much wiser than myself once observed: the fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunk man is happier than a sober one.

Is he right?<br /><br />I hate to say I told you so... Oh, and for future reference? It's "Soleil" -- it's French, so "I before E" does not apply in this case.

Why?<br /><br />To even ask the question is to entirely miss the point -- there's nothing to "research", because atheism makes no positive claim.

He would've been dead even before the end of the first season, if they'd stuck closer to the comic book series...

As for the advertisers they're just trying to cover their own ass, for fear of guilt by association.

It is, to borrow from Sam Harris, nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs.

The evidence is there but up to you to believe it and still doesn't change a thing?<br /><br />In a word: no -- your "evidence" amounts to nothing more than a string of logical fallacies.

The mortal sin was protecting priests who molested kids. Agree?<br /><br />Disagree on both counts -- the very concept of "sin" presupposes, completely without evidence, that there exists a god or gods who could get their panties in a twist over our behavior.
