Whatever you say shaky, I'm not going to the trouble of proving something that's so obvious. Your obviously baiting JIA when you made that Christian remark.

"Don't believe in anything simply because you heard it.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
Do not believe in anything because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
But after observation and analysis, you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept and live up to it." -- The Buddha

So, because you have never met a Buddhist who has done anything wrong you became a Buddhist? Wow. You trade in eternal life and Truth for a lie? Wow. So you would rather go to Hell (for eternity) with good people than go to Heaven with people who are no longer capable of sinning? Incredible.

lol way to avoid the question roflcopterz
first theyl say. look at how life is so beautiful. there is even a more beautiful soul that controls your body and not merely coincidence that lets the particles behave in the manner that they do. after all if your LOGICAL how can you believe that all this ORDER is due to simply coincidence. its the SOUL. ill ask a simple question, can ANY human make life????? or even close ot it????? NO! therefore there is a creator and there is a soul.
arguing scientist: HEY THEY MADE ARTIFICIAL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!'
believer: so what does that prove? youve proven nothing. there is no definitive argument against the existance of god or the soul.{the other half of believers kill the scientist, ban his research and kill the ABOMINATION, he created outside god's will.

Then they will want you to make life from nothing, even though nothing does not exist.
