For someone who loves pointing out logical fallacies...

Since you like logic...

"The past controls the present and future.
You can't control the past.
Also, you can't control the way the past controls the present and future.
So, you can't control the present and future."

So, how did you choose to be an atheist?



Btw, do you think saying "99% of climate scientists believe global warming is caused in part by man" to be a rational argument?
