If you're simply going to adopt that attitude, do you believe in all the gods and Bigfoot, UFOs, a hollow earth and all manner of absurd, ridiculous things that mankind has thought up over the years? Just because something cannot be proven (or disproven) doesn't make it false, remember?
And since I never said it made it true, you are erroneously attributing an argument to me that I never professed.

Quote:
Logical, rational people do not accept things without adequate reason to think they are actually so. Wanting it to be true or drawing emotional comfort from believing it is true is not sufficient reason to think it actually is true. That's the point, yet neither you nor Jallman seem capable of demonstrating why you believe it and why you think anyone else should as well.
I have also explained that being logical and having faith do not cancel each other out. Also, my belief system is my own, and I have never stated that I think anyone else should believe what I believe. You are, again, attributing to me, a position that I have never taken. Or, are you projecting to me, your position on this?

Since it was asked in the context of the factual truth of your beliefs, that's the logical conclusion to draw. If you saw it differently, then it's a misunderstanding.
