Good job, marc. You definitely won, like Spicygirl said. The other judges were definitely biased because you proved evolution was atheistic, which is soething they don't wnt to be known in public, because it will expose evolution as their religion.

I'm unsure as to why you consider yourself a better judge than the two less biased judges whose views you are denying...

Does that matter? Isn't it obvious? You get your friends to vote you for and it allegedly makes every single one of our failures in the debate no longer matter. Exoneration through popularity. Quite stupid really, but what can you expect?

A brief statement

As someone to whom it has always been difficult to grasp why "faith" is considered to be an attribute I humbly would like to inquire as to how a previous author in this post (proclaiming to be a scientist) professed to "still believe in god."

He went on to state that "I may have faith in those things I cannot touch while trusting the scientific method to tell me things about that which I can touch."

Now, to me this seems like an obscenely hypocritical way of viewing the world. Scientists should realize better than anyone how "reality" transcends matter that you can actually 'lay your finger on' and to boldly assert that this warrants a blind acceptance (a.k.a. "faith") of some omnipotent deity leads me to one of two possible conclusions. Either this person is unaware that literally, faith in any form of science experimentation is unethical, or this person is a very bad scientist, such as a pseudo-scientist or a professor of divinity.
