Quote: TheButcher "I find it amazing that in the modern age someone can dismiss reality and the proof that provides it in favour of one creation myth among thousands backed-up with nothing more than wishful thinking. The stupid thing is, science doesn't have any questions or answers on gods, because the process deals with what can be tested and figured out. There's plenty of room for religious belief among all the different religions as long as they see their old books for what they are. Old mythology full of metaphors. There's plenty of religious people who do accept reality and science thankfully, leaving the wild fringe believers to their own twisted versions of reality that they create for themselves. There's ignorance and there's willful ignorance. The extremes fit into the latter. Belief can make you pretty strange.
Stan, for instance, has no trouble in believing in a flat young earth with the sun and moon only a few thousand miles away with no real evidence or proof. Plenty of straw grasping, but no evidence. But has to make up wild and unproven fantasies to dismiss hundreds of years of evidence-backed science, and thinks that everything in the sky is a hologram.
He genuinely doesn't see the errors in his point of view, which is slightly alarming.
Staggering really.'"
I think stan was talking to Doom and Gloom before you butted in. Isn't your religion Doom and Gloom hehehe
