I guess if you cant figure it out, are going to resort to swearing and getting irate, ill spell it out simple for you. The guy was responding to someone talking about not trusting doctors, said they dont have to prove themselves becuase they have time and time again. That was the "this is something we can touch and feel" comment your so obsessed over. My point is blind faith cant be used to prove there is a god. That is why its called faith. I choose to trust in things that can be proven to me. I dont know why you need to get all bent out of shape either. Relax a bit. I realize this is just an online forum but cmon, at least act like an ass to someone who deserves it.

#1. Rants and flames. Sorry but I just can't be bothered with a thread that doesn't have ranting and flaming here. I thought I saw an opportunity to bring this thread into the realm of 'RnF' rather than just another OT thread in the RnF section.
#2. Blind faith can't be used to prove anything? No, I suppose not. But what you don't realize is that every single metaphysical entity that you accept as an individual is also unprovable. Concepts like "Justice," "free will" and "love" do not exist in any physical sense. We can ascribe characteristics to them but they are formless to us and therefore we can not be said to truly know them.
#3. What is my point? My point is that when you say you "trust in things that are proven to you" You actually mean you "trust in things that you accept on faith" since basic, foundational concepts such as objective reality can never be irrefutably proven by their definitions.
