You also failed the 'their/there/they're' test... cute. Well yeah there is so why put it out there? Cases of people being tricked because they're relying on themselves instead of something more objective like the scientific method don't really do your cause that much good.

Improvement in the discipline of a man's use of language must reflect an improvement in the discipline of that man's thoughts. Whereas decay in the discipline of a man's use of language must reflect decay in the discipline of that man's thoughts.

But don't you think the world would be a little more disturbing if everybody just "flopped it out" when they were bored?

The less discipline a man reveals in the use of language, the less disciplined are his thoughts and the less reliable are his opinions.

Meaning and knowledge are used by an understanding to construct a view of the world —reality. Hence it is the moral foundation of an understanding, as well as experience, that dictates reality. And there can be no reality except that realised by an understanding. A Reality is in effect the memory of an understanding.

The understanding of an idea can be improved by simplifying the words used to express the idea.

"the doctrine of the double motion of the earth about its axis and about the sun is false and entirely contradictory to Holy Scripture" - Pope Paul V (God's representative on Earth) during the trial of Galileo Gallilei.

Case closed....but

I'll never be able to disprove God's existence, his creation predates intelligent thought and so long as modern christians continue to believe that the Bible isn't literal, all evidence which contradicts it will be ignored.

I'd say god's creation coincides with intelligent thought.

That's like saying rainbows prove god's existence.

then how do we possibly exist.....
if you found a silver watch in the middle of a desert, you would immediately think who left it there.....so as for us, who put us here....
obviously allah (god)

Everything created has a creator.
We were created.
We have a creator.

Name that fallacy, there's a real obvious one.

The reason that that's a poor analogy is because on a beach there are none of the materials for the creation of a watch. Should there be other little bits of watch lying around on the beach and the raw materials, and varying degrees of watch formation, then we wouldn't find it so incredible would we?

We are not a silver watch found on the beach because we can look around us and see the progression from simple to complex with reference to evolution and other scientific discoveries.
