Never really was a believer. I was raised in a nominally Catholic household. My mother converted from Congregationalist to marry my father. My parents rarely went to church. I am baptized and confirmed Catholic. I knew before I was confirmed that it was all bullshit. I figured it was a Santa Claus thing and the adults were all in on it. One day they would explain that it was all bullshit and only kids would believe something so stupid. Well, that day never happened. When I was a child I believed in childish things.
What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence. -Christopher Hitchens
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?
