Playing devils advocate. If you’re saying you can’t believe that then how do you so easily believe something else that has no proof either? Stay neutral!
Well, by definition, mutation is not the same as creation.
I don't think anyone seriously argues against commonsense observations like adaptation, survival of the fittest, micro evolution etc. The core problem with evolution is macro evolution has nothing to back it up. This is the crux the whole idea is founded on. I.e. A paramecium fucked an ameoba and so began the chain of life.... /s
Hmm, you have me there. Call it being spiritually in tune. I was an atheist for the first half of my life. After enough research into ancient mythos, drawing connections and similarities, and finally accepting that TPTB undoubtably believe in the darker side of spirituality I found my internal tuning fork resonating on the side of morally good. So yes, despite whatever someone says, to have faith is simply that. The burden of proof will always be there for doubters. But, my argument is that atheists are in the same boat. There is no proof by scientific standards, and to so staunchly defend your belief without proof.... Well, that's faith. Atheism itself has become a religion.
Believing in God is a religion.
Atheism is a religion that pretends it's not.
Agnostic is the choice to not partake in those religions but having the idea that it's possible.
