Running around telling everyone you are an atheist does not make you somehow smarter or cooler. You're still the close-minded idiot you were before, just with a slightly different belief system. Instead of infallible priests with infallible doctrine, you have infallible scientists with infallible theories. If you could go forward 200 years many of the current scientific theories will be barely recognizable.
Now, as an agnostic, I, like you, believe science is the best way to go about exploring the universe. But it is NOT infallible. And while it has appeared to answer many questions, these answers might, in the fullness of time, be proven incorrect. So I keep an open mind.
OK, now you've been funny twice. Very nice.
So, how many ways are you mistaken? Let's see if we can at least begin the count, shall we child?
Perhaps we should start with the notion that I had any interest in your "argument". Why would I bother attacking it when it does not interest me in the least. Your lack of understanding of the simplest of definitions ("their" v "there") within a sentence talking about tiny masses of brain tissue struck me as funny. Nothing more. Nothing less. Indeed, it still does.
Now as far as the "internet armchair atheist", I am not really sure what you mean by this. As far as my own chairs and beliefs, you know nothing of these and surely fell far from the truth. Now, if you have even the slightest respect for truth, or if you even understand the concept, you should be feeling rather stupid right about now.
"Running around telling everyone you are an atheist..." Sorry, but I cannot remember saying anything of the sort. Perhaps you would like to point out where I did. Or perhaps, more to the point, your embarrassment at your own stupidity and completely unfounded assumptions should be rising to the point of consuming you with self-contempt.
"You're still the close-minded idiot you were before, just with a slightly different belief system. Instead of infallible priests with infallible doctrine, you have infallible scientists with infallible theories." Wow, you know all this about me? And all from a rather minor comment that your post contained a rather humorous juxtaposition? My, you must be omniscient to have deduced all of this.
"Now, as an agnostic, I, like you, believe science is the best way to go about exploring the universe." How exactly did you deduce that I believe that science is the best way to go about exploring the universe? All because I think it funny that you do not understand the difference between "there" and "their". Very impressive indeed. Perhaps I do believe in science. But the fact that you deduced this from essentially nothing at all leaves me thinking that you must have god-like powers.
Now please child, go sit down and relax before you hurt yourself. And maybe try this in the future - try not to make any completely unsupported assumptions about others. You know, that would be the way that science would suggest that you approach it. God too. (Not sure what ghosts would recommend).
