To be perfectly honest I don't know why I am bothering with this. I find it very annoying that you came into the humour forum and hijacked a thread with this crap, and all I am doing is encouraging you and your mates that this is a good way to start a discussion on this. Let me say now, it's not. I rarely engage with this tripe but for some reason you have hit a nerve.
So if you want to have this debate I'm going to lay out a few things. Religion, in all its forms is an ideology which helps people define the world. Science is a set of tools and methods of logic that people use to understand the world. That being the case, I do not want you to confuse or conflate the two. They are two very different things and I would like you to acknowledge that if you would like to have a debate.
In which case, it should be clear that what you are debating is the existence of god or the lack of one. What really annoys the s..t out of me is when religious types conflate atheism with science and debate as such. To me if you are stupid enough to do that then you are not worth even a seconds thought of my cognitive space because you have failed to grasp even the most fundamental concept of your own arguement.
