    I don't have enough faith to not believe in God.

    And I hope it works for you and you are happy. Just don't expect others to agree OR try to push religious doctrine into the legal system, alright?

    What about zombie Jesus? Is that scientifically possible to rise from being dead?

    I don't see that as even vaguely interesting, let alone sensible.

    In fact, the idea that 2 Peter 3-7 discusses a physical law of any kind is nonsense. Your Job cite says, "7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing". And, you claim that is GRAVITY??? When I read that I see that it says that GOD did that, NOT that there is a natural process involved - a process that extends to all matter.

    And, these falsehoods come from a WELL KNOWN source:

    => Religion has NO process for investigating how this physical universe works. Religion is MORE than satisfied by suggesting that each thing that happens was done by god. In no way does that contribute to understanding the causes and relationships in our natural world.

    And all of them have failed to produce the desired result.

    there is more evidence of that religion coming first then of a God existing

    or did you mean religion is a crazy conspiracy theory with no evidence?

    IF God exists, miracles are no big deal.

    How do you know that god doesn't do gravity - simply moving stuff in an orderly fashion? Obviously, that wouldn't take a fraction of his capability

    I really don't believe there is a difference between "miracle" and anything else that happens - that is, I see no way to draw a meaningful line.

    Just a funny saying. I have no problem with anyone being themselves if they don't hurt others doing so. Why would I?

    to be an atheist one must suspend critical thinking and totally rely on faith.

    Science has explained gravity. And how is gravity "moving stuff in an orderly fashion"? What about asteroids hitting the earth? What about planes dropping from the sky and killing hundreds of people?

    Do you think that is God's choice? Do you think it is orderly?

    it does not change the fact that: to be an atheist one must suspend critical thinking and totally rely on faith.
