TAKE THE TEST!
Here is the 'Am I A Creationist?' Test:
1. Are science, logic, observable data, and rationality, completely and utterly incorrect?
2. Is God correct?
3. Am I right?
If you answered yes to all these questions you are a creationist. Congratulations on ignoring fact
Is god willing to prevent evil but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him god?
According to a study by Paul Bell, published in the UK Mensa Magazine in 2002, there is an inverse correlation between religiosity and intelligence. Analyzing 43 studies carried out since 1927, Bell found that all but four reported such a connection, and he concluded that "the higher one's intelligence or education level, the less one is likely to be religious or hold 'beliefs' of any kind."
Bell, Paul. "Would you believe it?" Mensa Magazine, UK Edition, Feb. 2002, pp. 12–13
If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time

You have an indestructible ego that out grows your own sense, your to prideful and all i see you do is argue, continuously trying to get your point out.
A human being who can take being wrong. so even when you know your wrong, you come up with some added excuse to make yourself sound smart.
But sir. some people may not, But God loves you.
and i love you, and i dont even know you, but im sure you have a descent side of you.
just because you cant see him dosnt mean hes not real.
Just like the air.
Just like a bat whom is blind, cannot see everything, dosnt mean its not there just as real as anything else.
The physical slab of wood that you can see, is probably less real than that which you cant.
