Hrmm, -If you have an open mind that there may be more to the 'Life, the Universe, and Everything' than science can explain by observing physical phenomena, then the reason rally is not for you. -If you are not ready to believe every bold lettered headline of scientific achievement, despite the fact that so many are retracted within three years of publication, then the reason rally is not for you. -If you refrain from using words like "We KNOW.." when in fact you know that you don't know, the reason rally is not for you. -If you are easily bored with people who think that book smarts are the only smarts, then the reason rally is not for you. -If you look at the past with a critical eye and think that perhaps those people living 3000+ years ago knew more than modern historians/archaeologist/scientist give them credit for, then the reason rally is not for you. -If you think that numbers are not sufficient to explain the entirety of existence, then the reason rally is not for you. -If you realize that something can not come from nothing, then the reason rally is not for you. -
I don't sit on the fence because I do not admit it's existence. Science, as Xeno repeatedly enjoys pointing out, does not care about truth or proving anything. It insulates itself from moral responsibility. It has become a soap box for narcissistic rabble rousers to tout how much more they think they know than everyone else while looking down their noses and foaming at the mouth when anyone mentions anything that falls outside their narrow minded purview.

What is the purpose of living? How about, 'to reduce needless suffering. It seems to me to be a worthy purpose.
