Faith is belief with no evidence.
Exactly – there is as little evidence for the existence of God (discounting of course the various anthropic principles, which are less religious in content and more philosophical) as there is evidence for the non-existence of God.
To illustrate the point – other than simply saying ’twas ever thus’ or using Occam’s Razor, give me proof that God does not exist.
If you spend some time thinking about it (I don’t mean that as a jibe, I mean it as a serious suggestion), it does makes sense. Or then again, maybe it doesn’t…
Oh and Mark – quite agree there should always be a debate. I was merely observing the irony.
