It's all fun and games till someone loses an argument! :)

I was just pointing out that what masquerades as "Modern Science" is chalk full of philosophically driven assumptions that are not observable or repeatable. In other words before anything is even looked at, there is a prior philosophical bias against any supernatural explanation even if that's where the evidence points. That's why we get an evolutionary explanation of everything. This is even worse for the explanation of the existence of the universe because you have nothing in back of it to "evolve".

The idea that a personal, self existent being that is responsible for what now exists is rejected out of a desire to avoid moral responsibility, but it is hidden behind the thin veneer of "modern science" when it's actually just philosophical naturalism.

Solon "knows" Jesus did not rise from the dead because he chooses to reject the possibility of such an occurrence before he even examines the evidence.
