Re: Religion and Atheism

You can't test history books. Would you say your knowledge of history is based on faith?



None of that proves that Genocide occured.

None of those things that are all consistent with each other and genocide are evidence of it? Okay, I'll bite... Why is none of that evidence?

Re: Religion and Atheism

What testable evidence is there that anything ever happened except history books and archeology? Can you please stick on topic.

You mean evidence other than the mass graves, tons of personal eye witness accounts, pictures, historical documents, 3rd party accounts, the trials in Turkey after the fact, and the personal accounts of the Armenians that ended up in the middle east (like in Lebanon and the various parts of the US like Wisconsin and Fresno etc)? You want more evidence beyond these things?

Re: Religion and Atheism

Armenians still exist in Turkey. Are you asking for evidence of Genocide?

Ayo...

Re: Religion and Atheism

Turkey has had a long time to cover up the crime scene. What "testable" evidence do you have that Armenians existed in Turkey?

I don't understand what you said here.

Re: Religion and Atheism

Prove Turkey is wrong. I guess since the destruction of over hundreds of Armenian Churches in Anatolia followed by the exodus of Armenians from modern Turkey, the elimination of "religion" would bury the history of Armenians from the records for good. Good try Sipperman.

Re: Religion and Atheism

I think Turkey has a similar attitude: Genocide is a lie and if you don't like it we kill you.

But then you say what about this and that and all these historical facts and stuff? Turkey says no the Truth is what we believe and we kill you if you say otherwise.

It doesn't stop at religion. The problem is "stupidity" Teaching creationism is plain just STUPID. There is no other way to put it. Creation is not backed by ANY fact. The only source of it is just stories told over centuries. You can say "oh we just have a different blief and you and I are the same you are just stupid for not believing what I believe." ... but there is a HUGE difference. The stuff I believe in have testable evidence. The stuff the religious believe cannot be tested and that is where "faith" comes in. What is faith? Faith is believing in things you can't prove
