and you are missing my point, both creation and evolution are heresay...
an evolutionist and a creationist both have their own reasons for beliefs... but tell me, where is the fossil record with a partial tail ?.... there isnt one, im MY PERSONAL opinion the creationist stand point is a more vaild one and it just so happens to line up with my personal belief system aswell.
just because you cant refute something doesnt mean it isnt true :)

"therefore, one is any less valid than the other, they are just two totally different stances on the same subject that are from total opposite ends of the spectrum."
Isn't using circular reason the field of expertise of fundies anyway? Well, that and non sequitur. And appeal to authority (bible). And... hm,. now that I think of it, more logical fallacies than I care to mention. *g*
Their one field of expertise is circular logic reasoning, reasoning and non sequitor. Er, their two fields of expertise are logic reasoning and non squitur, and appeal to authority. Erm. Their *three* fields of surprise are circular reasoning, non sequitur and appeal to authority... and argument from agnorance. Our *four*... no, amongst their fields of expertise are such diverse elements as appeal to authority... non sequitur... damn, I'll come in again!
Ever here of Pascal's Wager?

Good points, and I can't logically refute much of what you said. But as it's been said by Kant, "I willingly sacrifice logical knowledge to make way for faith."

I personally prefer the Atheists Wager:
>>Humans. WE have a partial tale. >>Tailbone.
>>Humans. WE have a partial tale. >>Tailbone.
>>Humans. WE have a partial tale. >>Tailbone.

FOrwhatever it's worth I'd like to thank commentor Scott for abeinga friendly and reasonable sort. I'm new to this site myself, and have bee expecting more fundie lurking than there seems to be. Nice of you to pop in and remind me that not all Xians are bat poo crazy. Not the philosophical path for me I'm afraid. I'm going with that atheist's wager myself. But I hope it all works out for you.
Personally, I support "live and let live." If someone wants to believe whatever God(s)/Goddess(es), and it makes said person feel good and it doesn't hurt or step into anybody's rights, do whatever and be merry.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
