The right path:
Q: Is there a god?
A: Who the freaking cares?[/QUOTE]
My take:
A1: Who knows?

AA1: Rather a large number of people AFAICT.

Indeed.

Many millions of humans have died over this question over the ages.

And, yet, we still don't have an agreed definition about which god is involved....

I would agree with you, but we atheists
are still an endangered oppressed species
as long as church and state are not
fully separated.

Hence my absolutist statement -
there is no god. The agnostics
can't even prove there MIGHT be one.

I can't really understand this. The question was "is there a god?", and your answer is "rather a large number of people". They make the god, all together, or what? I don't imagine that someone could consider my "who cares?" a question.:smile: As stated, that was [B][U]an answer[/U][/B].

I gave an answer to that question.

Yes, a large number of people do know.
But wait, there really is no god?

Don't get yourself banned, we need you on the chess team.:smile:

OK I'll try my darndest.

I have a question.

Has anyone here recently changed their view on whether there is or isn't a God,
and whether or not this can be proved?
