I'm not sure what you mean by "need" but I've already said a number of times that science can neither prove or disprove god's existence.

As long as religions don't try to push their faith on us, they don't.

I could ram my faith down someone's throat and I wouldn't have to prove the existence of God.

Yes, if your asking people to believe in something they have the right to ask for proof.

When forcing something upon someone, the other person's assent is not required (nor asked for).

So your saying religion shoud be forced on people? Are you nuts?

He's saying if he were actually going to force it on someone why would he care about trying to prove anything.

Not trying to put words in his mouth but thats what it seems like to me.

Because if you don't prove it to them they will not accept it and resist it.

But do you agree if your asking people to believe in something they have the right to ask for proof.

Are you retarded? I said nothing of the sort.

Thats what i was referring to.

I never said that one ought to force one's beliefs upon another.

You made an allusion to it.

Actually, I made an outright statement about forced proselytizing.

I see.

Of course.

Good, glad we can agree.

Saying it's "fictional" isn't very scientific at all.

You don't know what you are talking about. Determining fiction or folklore from reality is a big part of science.

That's not a very convincing argument.

You're contradicting yourself:

...how could science prove or disprove a fictional character from an old book.

So, can science prove or disprove god or can't it? I think you're the one who doesn't know what you're talking about.

1. What argument?

2. In what way am I contradicting myself?

3. You have not read anything I've written. It all depends on the definition of "god". If you are talking about the bible god, then yes: this myth will one day be disproved, but if you are talking about the mystic law, then no. No human can ever understand the mystic law.
