You can believe me.

The word "belief" is a noun and the word "believe" is a transitive verb.

As I've said, ... beliefs belong in church.

You’re playing games with people. Why?

Then keep your belief that Darwin existed in church.
Keep your beliefs in how life came into this world in church.
Keep your belief that you are intellectually superior in church.

BTW - to what church do you go when you want to exercise your beliefs?

The coward’s way of conceding defeat in a debate is to ignore the difficult questions - which is what you’ve done. But I will give you one more chance:
Explain to us all why you believe that Darwin existed. Tell us how you establish the fact. Prove to us that he existed, or we are left to understand that you just BELIEVE that he existed because you read it somewhere...

Funny how you started out touting your adherence to “facts”, but in a few short posts you’ve been exposed as an ignorant believer who, evidently, has never examined your beliefs but simply, blindly accept what someone else claims is true - like a superstition. Yet you have the unmitigated gall to belittle the beliefs of others...beliefs, btw, that are no doubt more founded in fact and examined more closely than your superstitions.

My beliefs belong wherever I want to take them. But I do urge you to keep your beliefs hidden...people will respect you more that way.

Ohhhh - I get it now....because one is a noun and the other is a verb you cannot manage to make the relational connection between “believe” and “belief”, let me help you:

What one believes is their belief

You believe Darwin existed; therefore, that Darwin existed is your belief.

As such, according to you, any discussions of Darwin, by you, should remain only in church. You don’t follow your own demands - you should remove your tagline, and should never have mentioned Darwin on this forum. KEEP YOUR BELIEFS IN CHURCH!!!
