So?

Ahh okay. I dont think that's true. Ive listened to a lot of religious debates and very rarely do you hear that they dont care about evidence. Maybe subconsciously you are correct, but nearly every religious person Ive heard believes they have good evidence for their belief in God. Even when Dillahunty gets them to agree that "faith is not a pathway to truth", they try to skirt around it with some different backwards justification that isn't based on faith alone.

Reminds me of the "well Galileo was persecuted, whaddya think of THAT, Mr. Science?" argument in its useless gotchafulness.

it's what's meant when someone says something along the lines of "science and religion exist on different planes"

anyone is entitled to the opinion that faith is stupid of course

personally, I don't judge so much on what gets people day to day anymore

Secretly you think they’re retarded, don’t you?

I think that they're being retarded.

If you're dealing with someone who's retarded, it's best to let them handle that aspect of the conversation instead of retaliating with retardation of your own.
