    I never cease to be amazed at the absolute gullibility of people in general. It was P.T. Barnum who said "a sucker is born every minute" (or something along that line). The gullibility of the human race makes fertile soil for the con-artists and shysters who prey upon the unsuspecting. Politicians make promises during campaign seasons, and the masses believe those promises in spite of the fact that few of those promises are ever kept.

    The religious landscape in our country, and throughout the world, is a living testimony to the gullibility of mankind when it comes to religion. The unbelievable is not only believed but embraced by a great multitude; and it seems that the more foolish a doctrine, the more it is embraced. If men in general loved the truth and rejected error, most, if not all of the religious cults that have arisen in the last couple of centuries would never have gotten off the ground.

    To see people abandon reason is amazing, but even more so when atheists, who pride themselves on logical argument, do it because they are tired of listening to the logical proof of God's existence.

    On the blog "Atheist Experience" one writer said he was tired of hearing arguments for God's existence because those arguments don't have anything to do with the real world. He wrote,
    "But basically the rise of science was based on a recognition of the fact that our model of the universe is always going to be tentative, so we should build up a system that recognizes facts as more or less likely to be true based on their support through observation. There is never, ever, going to be some kind of successful argument purely of the form 'A is A, therefore Bigfoot exists / doesn't exist.' Proving things in the real world requires that you look at things in the real world."/1
