Conventional logic holds that people don't carry baseballs around with them. Conventionally, would you think a person with pockets full of baseballs as "normal"? Do you carry everything you own in case you have to logically prove to someone that you own it in the event that some conventional debate arises?

I've never known a christian to react like that when someone asks to prove Gods existence. If someone is sincerly asking the question we'll usually talk about why we believe. If someone is being hostile I'll walk away.

ChiliMac, on a serious note, it's really dependent on the parties conversing. I've openly had many discussions on religion. It's also helpful to comprehend the other party's(ies') views and backgrounds, to have amicable discussions. :)

Mona: You are absolutely right, it does depend on the parties. I believe most people still know how to and are polite and respectful of one another. I was having this conversation with a friend from my church the other night. His roommate had criticized him for reading books by Dawkins. We disagreed with him. We should understand those who have different opinions then ours and be respectful to one another.

could also be titled "conventional logic vs evolutionist logic" or "conventional logic vs global warming logic". i see more unfounded dogma from these two groups than any other.

Definitely something Richard Dawkins would approve of! :) And @ChristopherCarr - the Celestial Teapot was the first thing I thought of when I saw this.

Love it but who is going to build it?

I'd rather the net was a place untouched by the dumb arsed warning label collective. I want my slippery floors to be a surprise, my cup to not warn me that it contains hot stuff and for nailguns to no longer inform me they aren't to be used orally!

But alphaxion, you wouldn't get comedy ones like this packet of nuts may contain nuts. Genius.

"t’s even more courageous when you consider Apple’s pitch for the Mac. Apple sells the Mac as offering MORE software out of the box that allows you to do more things straight away. Microsoft is now moving in the other direction. Dare I say it, but it makes Microsoft look the more net friendly, cloud friendly company of two, coupled with the fact you have to pay money to access Apple’s built in web services, where as Microsoft’s base line web products are nearly exclusively free."
