Black is the absence of white and since black = dark and white = light and light>dark therefore white>black

Lol i already told you Black is not a colour Colours Bounce back the light spectrum that matches there colour.
As black is not a colour it does not.
White technically Is a colour... But technically its ALL of them, so it bounces back all the spectrums of light and apears white.

And then i went on to say....

Atoms however exist.
Thats why they were able to split an atom.

i dont think youl find that they were able to Split god.

Now now StfS.
dont we have a truce :P?

and what dosent make any sence about my post lol?

Humans split the attom So thats evidence that attoms exist,

humans have only ever Beleved in god so no evidence there.

Also. About colour...

its true.
red things absorb all the other colours in the spectrum and only reflect the Red part of the light spectrum.
So you see it as red.

White is technically all colours' So it reflects all the colours in the spectrum Which as we know then becomes white.

And black, being the basence of any colour at all. Reflects no colours of the light spectrum back and there for is black.

The first post doesn't so much beg the question of whether Atheism is a faith as much as it asks whether science is a faith. Faith requires belief in something that has not or cannot be proven, and as such I would say that scientific explanation often requires faith, thouth it is significantly different than religion. (Science seeks to answer questions through attempted falsification, theoretical models, and Occam's Razor, Religion provides answers from metaphysical revelation and generally doesn't attempt their falsification.)

On a deeper level we all require faith to survive on a daily basis, believing in things such as cause and effect that are so central to every paradigm of existence that we probably couldn't even think of an objective way to conclusively test them.

(sorry for the vernacular
