If i said that in my hand is a 50 pound note when clearly there is nothing in my hand at all would you believe me? No you would not. And you'd be right too refute it. So what are we left with? People say that they believe in god because.... to me it's real ( there is no evidence to prove that point of view) Meanwhile i still have a 50 pound note in the palm of my hand for those who can see beyond there being nothing in my hand at all. That's religion in a nut shell. Blind to reality, a leap of faith,the world is still flat right? god said so, well that book recons he said it. How did that go? Imagine if the Viz was picked up instead of that bible book of fairy stories? Today we would all be worshiping two fat slags and beheading folk for slating them for our fat slag faith.

You bring up these same things time and time again without any elaboration on what relevance they have?

Believing the world was flat wasn't a "religious" thing and was later proven incorrect by advancement in science and research that showed the earth was actually spherical.

No such proof has been offered to disprove any religion or the existence of a deity so the point of you bringing it up alludes us.

I never said it was advancement after the bible though?

In fact in the very post you quote I state the belief in a flat earth wasn't anything to do with it.
