>No, not really. You can choose to reject this information and call it untrue, but you have not proven anything either.
You dont' have to. As they said, "the necessity of proof always lies with the person who lays charges.". It's for justice, but it works for science too.
Show evidence, or fuck off. Carl Sagan said that too, but with a mannered way.
>Religion is a lot of things. A moral compass, explanations for life events, explanations of the unknown, inspiration, community, etc
So what. It won't make it more real, or valid. Get into the facts and stop putting bullshit on top in order to avoid any debate.
So is music and old tales for kids in order to behave well and these won't make any fairy tale more real.
