That was a reply to PostmodernProphet who said that I have no values.
Which is why we simply lack the belief that gods exist. I also lack the belief that fairies exists.It is blind faith. It is not possible to prove any god, gods, or spirit does not exist.
The variety comes from different environments. In some environments, being able to fly helps survival and replication. In other environments, being able to breath under water is more important. It also depends which other species are around. After the dinosaurs died out, other species that wouldn't have been able to survive were suddenly able to survive and replicate.Since one of those environmental factors is the survival of the species to mutate, and since 'unsuitable' species die out, the tendency is towards reducing the selection of different species. Where does the variety come from in the first place? If you say 'evolution', you negate the factor of 'natural selection'. That is a paradox, dude. You can't just suspend a theory of science when it's convenient!
But these theories are based on evidence, while religion is not. Every theory requires some faith, but religious theories require blind faith.Then I submit the Theory of Evolution, the Theory of Abiogenesis, the Theory of the Big Bang, and the Theory of Creation qualifies as 'religion', for there is no way to test whether any unobserved past event actually occurred.
I also submit the idea that your own definition is itself a 'religion'.

Oddly enough, having no values is not an insult. It is also not possible. Everyone has a value system. You were also not making that statement in that context. Contextomy fallacy.
Which are themselves beliefs.
They are all on the same Earth, dude. Now you say that variety and natural selection are happening in different environments?? You are trying to suspend Natural Selection as a convenience. You can't suspend any theory that way.
You are attempting to suspend the Theory of Natural Selection. Seems like you are beginning to realize it's been falsified.
How?
Uh...how did other species survive and replicate to BE THERE when the dinosaurs died out??? Further, you are AGAIN denying the Theory of Natural Selection.
Science doesn't use supporting evidence. Only religions do that.
Religions use supporting evidence.
There is no difference between faith and 'blind' faith. Faith is just another word describing the circular argument.
There is no such thing as 'supernatural'. That's a meaningless buzzword. Just because YOU don't understand an aspect of nature doesn't make it 'supernatural'.
BTW, there are some Christians that DO pay physics and/or believe in leprechauns. There are some atheists that pay psychics too.
Maybe he just didn't like cats. Wasn't it a Chinese restaurant in San Francisco that had cats killed so they could be served as 'chicken' or 'pork'? Your local pound kills dozens of cats every year because nobody wants them.
Of course there are.. Lots of people are superstitious.. They believe in the Zodiac and Taro Cards, Ghosts, Psychics and Fortunetellers... ALL that is considered supernatural.. Walking on water and talking snakes would also be supernatural.
Some think the slaughter of cats lead to the plague..
The Malleus Maleficarum or the Hammer of Witches, is the well known and the most thorough treatise on witchcraft... which sanctioned the burning of thousands of witches.
