Science hasn't found the unicorns, talking non-humans, and
dragons that you apparently believe in.
Which is why we need smart TV more than ever, because fiction in all forms still steals past the watchful
dragons of our own presuppositions and prejudices and helps us look at the world in a different light.
Otherwise, there would be no reason for a term to distinguish anybody from the majority, much like how we don't see to come up with a term for people who don't believe in
dragons.
If you want to be «scientific» you also have to be agnostic about all the other gods, and about vampires, werewolves,
dragons, ogres, leprechauns, and pretty much everything else from all the world's cultures and religions.
He slays monsters and
dragons, and overcomes evil rulers.
So I prefer to believe in
dragons — they are more colorful, more interesting and have just as much power, and I get the same results as one on believe in God.
the bible has unicorns, satyrs,
dragons and c.ockatrice.
Fairy tales tell children that
dragons can be killed.»
As to play your prove it theory,
dragons were considered fictional.
Because people who DO believe in
dragons aren't flying planes into buildings, incinerating thousands, in the name of their belief in
dragons.
Children of every culture, and in every place, seem to have a built - in craving for monsters and
dragons and «wild things.»
But new «evidence» your favorite term has proven that
dragons more than likely existed.
If I told
you dragons are living among us you would think I'm crazy, but based upon your logic it is not me that has to prove that they exist but rather it is you that must prove they do not exist.
the bible also has unicorns, satyrs,
dragons and c.cokatrice in it.
7 headed
dragons that spew torrents of water will hunt down pregnant women to eat!
The bible was written by men who believed in fire breathing
dragons and a flat earth.
Ultimately it's the blessing of the unicorns and
dragons that will settle these questions.
how could they possibly have seen them and mistaken them for
dragons?
Sam Stone, Fairies and pink
dragons defy explaination as to how they occur, since by definition, they are an intrusion into the natural order of things, but they do make sense if you know the whole story.
The wind exists, so
the dragons must exist.
Are there unicorns,
dragons, 7 headed amphibious monsters, or talking snakes and donkeys?
That is akin to me saying that all of the wind is created by giant invisible
dragons.
Supersti tion / miracles / stories of
dragons etc thrived in more ignorant times.
komodo
dragons are not very big.
also, komodo
dragons aren't in the middle east.
Just because fairies and pink
dragons are not common place today, doesn't mean that fairies and pink
dragons did nt exist in the past.
Do you believe in unicorns and
dragons as well?
Therefore we can not even prove that there are no unicorns, or
dragons, or fairies, or anything.
Perhaps they also believe in hobbits, goblins, fairies and
dragons as well?
However, we can say that there is no reason to believe in X (in unicorns, in
dragons, in fairies, or in god).
Delusions of
dragons, demons, deities, leprechauns, etc have entertained thru the ages.
I say it IS part of reality... and nowhere does the Bible state that unicorns actually exist, nor do
dragons actually exist... the earth stopping in its orbit is supernatural..
That is not the nature of the concept of
dragons.»
It is just as rational to believe tiny invisible
dragons fly out of my ass each night to blow the winds accross the waters and makes plants grow and flowers open also keeps the earth spinning, yup, all my
dragons fault.
If I calim that giant invisible
dragons make the wind... you feel the wind, so that proves that the
dragons are doing it.
Do you believe in unicorns, fairies,
dragons, Santa Claus, etc?
be more realistic here...
dragons don't exist for one..
There is nothing off - handed about a non-belief in a deity, just as there is nothing off - handed about not believing that giant invisible
dragons live amongst us that eat our poop after we flush it down the toilet.
There is equal evidence for your god as there is for the Tooth Fairy, or the Easter Bunny, or wind making
dragons.
There's also ridiculous threats from God in there that reflect on the knowledge and intelligence of anyone at the time who would accept the idea of unicorns,
dragons, or angels that killed tens of thousands of people.
The notion that
dragons create the winds is no more irrational than any other imaginary creature creating anything.
When
dragons and lauprechans start to explain quamtum machanics, make sense of otherwise inexplicable personal experiences, and seem to actually better people's lives, I'll be more than happy to believe in them, too...
The same is true of fairies, leprechauns and
dragons, but we do not therefore say that we will believe in those things anyway.
Unlike the Bible, it doesn't CLAIM to have all the answers like talking animals, unicorns,
dragons, and the sun and moons suddenly STOPPING in their orbit.
NOWHERE has it been shown that God is using an ACTUAL Creature... again God is using things that people KNOW... they knew of MYTHICAL things like
dragons... they knew that other religions had drgaons... they were aware of them having
dragons in their myths... God simply chose to use that to make a point... show me WHERE it says it was an actual creature...
Your imaginary friend isn't any more real than
dragons, whether they originate from neverbeenhappieratheist's butt or not.
NONE of those verse you mentioned say that
dragons EXIST... iin FACT..
@Christine «When

A hero among imaginary
dragons is still a hero; a boy who keeps his brother and sisters safe, sailing unexpectedly at night across a real sea, is a hero whose courage and resourcefulness ought to move us.
For the 400 million inhabitants of the former Asian tigers and
dragons, the IMF was tantamount to saying «I'm fired».
