@kellyjay saidWhat exactly are you implying is our 'agenda'? An 'agenda' to try and do what, exactly? Piss off theist? (that's not a serious suggestion).
I bet you disagree, given your agenda.
I ask because I honestly don't know what you think this exact 'agenda' of ours is.
(In contrast, it's obvious what yours is; push your religion).
The only relevant 'agenda' I am aware of having here is satisfying my own personal curiosity for the truth and completely irrespectively of whether I find that truth to be pleasant or unpleasant. I don't want there to be no god and what I want to be true has nothing to do with what I come to believe to be true. If I make what I believe to be true whatever I want to be true, like you do, then I probably believe there is a god since I assume that means greater chance there is an afterlife and why on earth would I not want an afterlife but rather just die instead? -I don't. That's just one example of a very unpleasant truth I came to believe probably true not because I want to believe it but rather in spite of wanting it to be false. I just go wherever logic/evidence (Occam's razor in this case) points.
Similarly, I don't 'want' evolution and/or biogenesis and/or old Earth and/or big bang to be true. So that absence of 'want' has nothing to do with my assessment on whether those things are true, and, although I have no reason to 'want' any of those things to be false either, that also has nothing to do with my assessment on whether those things are true. Again, its only about the logic/evidence and not the want.
