Could you post the photo again please? It's been a long while.

Space-time is a concept which intertwines two abstractions and calles them a fabric.

Space is just length x depth x height. It has no physical properties and therefore no causal power.

Time is a convention weuse to measure one solar noon to the next.

It also has no physical properties and therefore no causal power.

Multiply nothing by nothing and you still get nothing.

Space-time is just an idea in the mind of Einstein. A thought experiment, yes, but nothing to do with empirical science.

Concepts are not material things, therefore they can not be aprhended solely in matter, such as neurons.

We must therefore have a spiritual component to our make up which can hold abstractions, and this is what we call the soul, and this function of the soul is called the Intellect.

Name one single scientific experiment (which requires the scientific method) that shows me I am wrong.

Science pre-supposes Cause and Effect relationships.

There cannot be an infinite number of cause and effect occurrences.

There has to be a first cause, uncaused in and of itself. This is what we call God.

Since you've brought atheism to the table, we can go to town on that. I didn't want to get into that here, because it never goes well. You atheists tend to get petulant and emotional, and run off with your bat and ball.

Feel free to put your # 1 knock out argument up for why atheism is true. Don't me give the third or fourth favourite. I want your very best one, the one that will make an honest enquirer into an atheist, so choose well!

Space has no physical properties?
Incredible.

In that case there is no such thing as radiation. Better stop using your mobile phone.

Time has no physical properties?
Brilliant. Quantum computers and time crystals must not exist, even though people have actually made them and use them in functional applications already.

You know, there is nothing wrong with admitting that you just don't understand science now that it is more complicated than a few basic observations by a 10th century size intellect.
