    It was a different person responding…

    I don’t accept one person’s opinion as evidence of another’s. That’s dumb as shit.

    Since you brought it up: I’m not a believer in any God. I do believe that the theory of evolution is true.

      It’s an application of Occam’s Razor. It’s an application of the Principal of Charity. It’s an application of some of the most basic concepts of philosophy.

      I think it’s an extreme position to say that it’s dumb as shit.

        And yet you’re accusing me of faith I don’t have while providing no evidence of your interpretation, but insisting that it’s correct anyway.

        I think that’s dumb as shit.

          You work incredibly hard to interpret what people say to conclude that they’re dumb and wrong, when there are much simpler interpretations available.
