I was talking to a really stupid evo (for those of you who don't know, evos believe in evolution and science and hate G-d) and I said to him: "Why have faith in science? It's always changing. The unerrant Word of G-D is where you should place your faith"
Well, the jerk said "The difference between science and religion is that science has ways to find out if it's wrong. That's why it changes from time to time - scientists find out that they'd been wrong all along. That only improves science and makes it more trustworthy, not less". You know, the usual evo yatter yatter. But then he said:
"In religion, you have no way of finding out if you're wrong. If you can never find out if you're wrong, how can you know that you're right?"
I must admit, I didn't know what to say to that. What should I have told the jerk?
