All science is hamstrung with such a handicap. This is what is so laughable about the atheists willingness to rely on humanity selectively.


Yep there is no getting around faith.

Even if the practitioner is an honest actor, there are more fundamental questions around the nature of rationality itself… that is, if there is no God (that is, transcendent rationality) and everything “just is” aren’t you running on faith when you believe your senses and your thoughts?

People who push this stuff can’t even prove they exist, or that they have free will or a rational mind. Yet they mock us.

Fundamental lack of intellectual honesty, hubris, and chronological snobbery combined together to make some of the most charming individuals out there…
