"When sugar crystals are squeezed, pressed, or crushed, they give off electricity called piezo-electricity (piezo means pressure). But the wintergreen in Wint-O-Green Life Savers is a very special substance that absorbs this ultraviolet energy and transforms it into visible light. This process is called fluorescence" Praise science! Give a Life Saver to a pope in 1400 and he would have you executed for claiming anything but god made the candy spark. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The same Procrss occurs with many animal forms of life. When is the soul there? "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

I still think it is pretty awesome that when life begins there is a flash of light, brilliant! “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

You did read the post about light happening when you crunch a Life Saver. Is that as awesome as the light you're so impressed with? They're both just chemical reactions, you know. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Good question. Wanna bet we find out? God is the last answer to any question and we have yet to resort to using it. Never gonna happen. God is the first answer of the desperate mind. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | I'm glad FrG is finally understanding that reason and logic always prevail over faux evidence when an atheist explains why they believe there is no god. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Did I miss something? I have never heard any atheist give a coherent much less a reasoned argument why they believe there is no God. I do however understand that reason and logic always prevail over faux evidence. That is why I believe in God. It is logical and reasonable based on the real evidence of science and human experience. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |
