Trying it from the other side

I am sorry, I didn't answer here, yet. First I was busy with work, and then the pet discussion sucked me in. I will answer your post first thing tomorrow after work.

Take your time.

Actually I started a new answer (half a novel) and I put some definitions and stuff like that in. But I am not sure how much sense it makes to continue.
Point is I am completely not behind the shit I am stating. Also the arguments suck. I do not feel like I can understand christians better, it just drives me away from them even more. I know all their arguments and I know how to crush them. I have no better or new arguments from the christian side which alone speaks for itself.
I can start quoting the bible and Christian books, I can find some shit in history but nothing that proves anything.

I am happy that I am not really believing in that stuff, because otherwise I'd be very frustrated right now

Anyway Vosur, you do have a good approach, I have only one critic point.
Your choice of words when it comes to "empirical evidence".
Empirical evidence includes experience as per definition (at least in the wiktionary). So probably a better choice, would be "scientific proof" as there is no way to wiggle your way out of by playing with definitions.
See:
Evidence - Hinweis, Anzeichen, Anhaltspunkt, Aussage
Proof - Beweis, Beleg, Nachweis


You ok with calling this off?

cheers

That's a valid point of criticism indeed. I stand corrected.
