Don't be a dolt....science does not vote on its results or conclusions...

Yes it does.

the data either exists to prove something or it doesn't....conclusion based on data are verified and reverified before the work is accepted by the scientific community....

That is called a vote. And it will always be a vote because nothing can ever be known in this reality such that it is incontrovertible. Scientists are just doing the best they can without God, but they are all lost. So... they just vote.

That's funny...true religion, I'll bet yours is it...

Well, on this level, I really cannot be concerned whether your religion is false or true. I am only concerned with what I have been shown. I am sincere when I tell you if you wish to be an atheist, I cannot really care about it ultimately. I at best can share with you another possibility, but if you reject it, then that is your choice. It's your afterlife.

Religion gets its authority from fear....fear of god and not going to Heaven....

Perhaps for some. As for me, I would rather burn in hell than lie about belief just to try to avoid a hell I don't really detect. Fear is no authority here and never has been. I have received certainty and am going where it has led. If you wish to claim it isn't so, I cannot care. I don't mean to sound callous. I am telling you of the reality. I cannot care.

And your insensitivity continues to amaze me... HIV political.... Don't you realize that a major portion of an entire continents population, male and female, adult and children are dying by the tens of millions?

So are you, Shep. Big ferrigin deal. You are dying. In about ten to fifteen years or so, you are gonna be dang six feet under or either spread across a dang ocean somewhere. There is really no difference between you and the tens of millions of other poor dying wretches in the world. You are all dying and you are all trapped in natural ignorance.

And you call yourself religious?

I don't call myself religious at all.

BTW, do you consider oral sex sodomy????

I don't think so. I always thought sodomy was letting folks "do things" to your nether region. But maybe I'm wrong here.
