Oh, I get it, you chose the simple list which isn't really science based, but ignored the lengthy list which indicates that the greatest scientists in the recent and present world are atheists. And my mind must be closed because I don't believe in biblical witchcraft and superstition. And, I must be a troll because I dismiss the rantings of biblical nitwits who lived when the world was flat.
Regurgitating drivel manufactured by the ignorant is not my idea of thinking outside the box. But if it gives you comfort, good for you. I find it stultifying.
Maybe you might want to study the second list, and notice all the Nobel prize winners, and pioneering men who discovered the foundation of our modern sciences. You also neglected to point out in your list that some of these people were persecuted by the church for their discoveries,ie, Galileo, and others. Again, science trumps superstition, but I understand your frustration in trying to defend the indefensible. You just can't do it. Does that make you a troll? No. Just in denial, as most who quote the bible as the source of their "evidence". "Well, so and so (insert mythical being of your choice) said this or that, thousands of years ago, so it must be true". "And I have it on good authority that their remarks were quoted, translated, and passed down through the millennia without error, or misinterpretation". After all, it's the "word" of "god".
As Einstein said, "human weaknesses", and "primitive legends". Not trolling, just countering witchcraft and superstition with logic and rationale. I understand that this offends some. Too bad. Their problem. When god appears and, after performing miracles and proving "himself", then I will listen to what "he" has to say. In regards to believing in superstition? Not gonna happen. Believing in nonsense does not make a person better. Just more suggestible.
its funny how awesome this thread starts to get going until this guy posts...
