STB I have find all of my reasons to be logical. I think you are illogical to believe that we came from nothing. POOBAH Fallacy of ad hominem. I have never stated that I "believe" that we came from nothing; just today I stated that I find the term "believe" to be almost useless. If you think your reasons are logical, then present them in a sound logical fashion. I have simply pointed out that the arguments advance by you & Jason so far are not logically sound, and you have offered no evidence or arguments to the contrary. That doesn't necessarily mean that you aren't right, it means that you have presented no logical evidence. Now if you want to correct that impression, present your arguments without logical fallacy. Perhaps you should take up Till's suggestion and actually invest in a book on logic.
