What is wrong with this topic. I posted a valid study.

You posted a website with 3 excerpts from studies performed in 1998 and 1999.

The "recent" studies of students were performed on samples sizes of 158 in 1980. Of "very high IQ group" was a sample size of 72 in 1968. It then picked out a select group of well known scientists.

What was the non-biased methods used to select these exact scientists?

It concluded with a 1995 Gallup poll which asked whether Religion was 1) very important in their life 2)answer all or most of today's problems. This poll can validly have someone who is not an Athiest answer in the negative based on the questions asked.

So OP please answer this, where is the validity in this so called study?

Some athiest probably did some basic googling, found a couple references that supported his hypothesis, and threw them together. Sound familiar to how your HS research papers went?

But...but...but he's not a troll! He said so.

But lets just say the OP wants to trade one religion for another.

I am not close minded, if I was then I would be a theist.

Trust us, you are closed minded.

Why dont you tells us about your grand idea that religion needs to be wiped off the face of the earth in order to build your Utopian communist society?

You are a great example of how far our university system has fallen.

No troll, you don't understand.

Rejecting theism because it doesn't make sense is just as close minded as a theist rejecting atheism because they have faith in god.

The real truth is nobody knows and nobody probably ever will.

1. I said before I was joking about wanting to wipe out theist and being a communist. I do infact support your right to believe as you wish. I don't agree with your religion, but I support your right to believe in it.

When there's a big meaty pitch coming right down the center of the plate, it's hard not swing for the stands.

Stop flaiming the OP, I want to see his intellectual response to my rebuttal. I'm curious as to what he'll come up with by the time I drive home.

lol @ thread

 

[scottish144]

Of course. This is exactly why ID was rejected by the scientific community. However, I believe that atheism is stupid. Skepticism (what I follow) is the belief of the POSSIBILITY that any number of gods may exist. God, Allah, Vishnu, and others may exist/co-exist/not exist. However, I consider the probability of their existance to be extremely low. In short: Stating that something has a low probability of existing is fine, but stating that something outright DOESN'T exist is stupid.

 

[DougK62]

You have no proof that a god doesn't exist. So why be so closed-minded that there is no god?

lol

So you're agnostic.

:most logical, by empirical evidence. That being said, I am Christian. Not everything can be proven by scientific means.

Sorry, but saying someone is the smartest person Bush's ever known doesn't say too much. I mean, I don't care if you believe he is a great leader or not, you don't have to be a genious to be a great leader, but he isn't the smartest man in history. Although he possibly is the most influencial.
