I'm sorry if you're incapable of having a reasoned argument.

 

My statement applies to all of the people who push their beliefs on others. I don't push my beliefs on anybody, I just state facts. You can believe whatever you want.

Im more than capable of a reasonable argument. I'm choosing to keep my views to myself as in my humble opinion this is not the place for this discussion. 

 

 

Good Chat tho.

Then feel free to bow out of the conversation as plenty of other people would like to talk about such topics. Opinions are welcome!

In the US, the percentage of Atheist (or similar standpoint) vs Theist is basically completely reversed when taking into account the general public vs scientists (roughly 10%-90% in public and 90%-10% scientists)... and the US is a strongly religious country... so because you can find a few examples of something doesn't mean that it's the majority :) the numbers are only swinging in the direction I state (for scientists)... the swing is much more slow in the general public but is most certainly headed that way; mostly thanks to the internet.

 

you are dribbling K31th

Even if your stats are true, the percentage of scientists who have no belief or don't have a specific "spiritual" belief (one that is religious in nature, but maybe a hope or belief in "some higher power" or variation on that) is significantly higher than in the general public... do you think a scientific mindset is a possible reason for this disparity?
