Stevie I will admit that some people have produced hoaxes to gain fame or to try to prove a theory..........but be honest Christianity is famous for it and has it off to a fine art.....the Shroud of Turin....various assorted miracles..the weeping virgin and stigmata cases are just a few examples from the top of my head....so what.
Evolution has been legitimately proved beyond all doubt.... it sticks in the craw for Christian religions to accept it as fact now....it made a mess of some religious beliefs at the time it was first broached and Darwin was treated cruelly for trying to prove his theory.
I am an Atheist therefore do not believe in anything I do not have proper proof of......that is not a belief in itself it is just applied LOGIC plain and simple. I refuse to accept pure belief without it being backed up by facts. I have studied the Bible and Christianity....I agree that some of the things written about in the Bible actually happened.......but that is hardly surprising as much of the Bible is historical information and accounts ..proves nothing about God though....that said much of these writings must be tainted by human exaggerations and the Chinese whispers effect therefore nobody can weed out the truth from the fiction given the circumstances in which it was compiled or handed down verbally and then translated. Any accounts about Jesus were seemingly written almost a century after his death......so believe them if you want...I remain skeptical.

As far as effect without cause I am afraid you have lost me...have not got a clue what you are talking about......or what point it proves. There is evidence of the big bang and there is evidence as to how life evolved from it.....but there is no evidence that effect without cause has anything to do with God......consider it impossible for God to create anything without himself first being created...and who created god and who created the thing that created Gods creator?
One thing for sure I am more inclined to believe the premise that man created God rather than God creating man. Historically man has come up with all kinds of explanations for things he cannot explain...some are pretty weird some downright stupid. Then thanks to science we discover the truth....somehow I suspect that whilst we show that God is an improbability we will never get prove one way or another...you cannot prove that something does not exist you can only prove a positive..the earth was flat till we found out it was round......people were called blasphemers and even put to death for daring to suggest that the Earth revolved around the sun.
One of the main reasons I am so anti religious and could never be a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim is that I respect women too much and prefer to treat them as equals....and God is too manlike....greedy, violent, possesive, unforgiving and egotistical for my liking.
My whole philosophy is simple..... if a thing looks implausible and lacks logic...it probably is not true. Skepticism is not accepted by most religions...they rely on complete blind faith and indoctination.....
One day one of us will be proved right.....sadly after death we cannot come back and prove that the other was wrong.
I see people banging on about religion and trying to convert people to their religion all the time...my rants are just redressing the balance.
