Default Attacks agaist Reason
I am on the verge of leaving this forum since it attacks reason. Even my drunken slurs contain more reason than the original argument. People's bastardization of empirics is beyond my conception.

Can people's exclamations of faith be specific?

Did you just ask if irrational people can be rational?

I do not how. My open attacks on faith is substantiated by my claims.

If people want to believe beyond empirics is beyond my compression.

I don't know why you would have expected to engage in a rational debate with people of faith. Their faith is inherently irrational.
