I guess I'm not kindly disposed towards Dawkins, but his stance is logically flawed. He presupposes infinite knowledge for his stance of strong atheism -- rather presumptuous.
To expect science to prove God is like ...[text shortened]... ation of the spiritual not a tangible entity one can put in a box and study under a microscope.
Along ATY's line, convert everything into binary (so even a computer can understand it 😛 ), and then replace all the zeros with 2's.

Yeah, how else are you going to explain 'nothing'. 😉

Hey rolf. Sorry for not replying before, I didn't notice your reply.
as stupid as this will sound to you they could easily say that the pirates represent the jesus christ character in this equally bizarre (as the bible) story.

yeah sorry about that, it's more than a little abstract. to short story it they have pirates as the FSM's representatives here on earth. the point they are making is that they could pick anyone and you can't disprove it, like jesus.

Isn't it typical of you christian types - argue against something, yet you don't have the first clue about it - kinda like what ya do all the time with evolution.

Did the pirates claim divinity? Did they claim to be representatives of the FSM?

I'm guessing this is a rhetorical statement, so I won't bother trying to prove to the contrary.
Originally posted by Rolfey probably not, but if they did could it be disproved?
Of course. Is there anything supernatural about pirates? Were they reputed to give great moral teaching, heal the sick or do any other supernatural deeds? To the contrary, they were murderers, thieves and rapists, the scum of the earth.

Who says that's not the way they should behave. Who says a messiah has to be nice?
