Default My response

As promised, I finished my discussion of the Tower of Babel. It can be found at: Jeff's Stuff or, if people think it would be appropriate, I could repost it to another thread here.

I'm sure Faith would disagree with what I wrote. Still, I'd be interested in the reasons.

Don't bother posting your theory of the tower of Babel. One, it would only prove incomprehension of God
So faith, why can't I use the same logic on you? Don't bother expounding your theories on God since it only proves your incomprehension of science (a much more likely scenario).

That is what frightens me... That you will spread your superstition, fear of the unknown and ignorance of science and scientific methods (as has been done for thousands of years).

You are entitled to your beliefs. I just feel that they should be treated as just that, beliefs, not facts. Facts only come from proof and repeatability.
