The only persons who would not be persuaded by proof would be the blind followers of a dogma written on goat skin from an age long ago.
Good luck to them in the dark, many of them come into the light.

Um I'm not so sure your definitions of lightness and darkness are accurate. It seem that in the world, that both reason and blind faith are used for good and bad purposes.

Why is it that every-time an Atheist ask a question is always insulting and demeaning? Why makes you think we are in the dark? Do you have any proof? Believers go by blind faith, you have too, that is what the Bible says in John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only son, for whoever"BELIEVES" in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. The Bible also tell me that we are the light of the world. I believe that. Therefore that means to me that if you are not the Light of the World, you must be in darkness. Why are you in this category. There are others where you may feel more at home, like Philosophy, Science, etc.... Why do you insist on bashing Christians?

particular faith certainly prevails over reason.people are non secular creatures and their non secular nature consistently unearths a thank you to appear.Love will detect a manner and the human soul is love.everywhere you look you spot human beings believing in some thing yet you will locate very few those that are genuine searching for this reason lots dying and destruction and falsehood and derision in the international. without faith not something might exist because of the fact the international is psychological.the international and the universe exists in basic terms as an rather continual concept in the minds of maximum human beings. without faith not something might exist yet nevertheless without faith not something might get destroyed.we are a factor of religion and faith is a factor human beings.a factor that would in no way be separated like earth and heaven. human beings don't comprehend how significant faith is of their existence and that they don't comprehend the real skill of religion.the actuality can become a lie and the lie can become the actuality in case you have faith in it long adequate.the skill of the strategies. without faith none of our desires might come real. faith is each and every little thing there is.

Hmmmm, I think it all depends on your definition of "prevail" and the level of victory implied. You can't say that light prevailed over darkness during the Spanish Inquisition, so the answer would be no in that circumstance. But, in the long term, global scale of knowledge and our general progress as humans, I'd say yes, we become more and more enlightened by science with each new discovery and each new invention that helps us to take another notch out of the great unknown.

Kudos on learning some Christian lingo, then perverting it for your own means. You sound like an intelligent person, but I think Christianity has just reached a little too far for you to grasp the concepts. I recommend college to get your head a little straighter. I've looked through your concepts of science and they seem to suggest about a 9th grade level. I sincerely hope you find some Truth.

6000 years of recorded history and mankind has continued to fall deeper and deeper into despair. Be honest... you know that your life holds no meaning in this system of things. What has technology truly brought us closer to: the end of hunger or nuclear war? Where is this light of which you speak... Is it in mans humanity to man. Come on Jim... your a bright guy...
and many respect your thinking and opinions... quite following the heard and look toward the real light of the world.
God bless you

Blind aith IS darkness...its a darkness of the mind. A closed, illogical mind is always dark and refusing any common sense or logic at all.
I dispise being around closed minded people. Its a sickness to not use the logic and reasoning ability of the brain, but so many people just turn it off.

Light - Christianity - will always win over darkness - Islam.

If Light always prevailed over the Dark, there wouldn't be the conflict that we are seeing today.
