What your "real life" is in your personal faith is your business. There are so many beliefs. Magnetic bracelets cure gout. Bible prophecy ensures eternal life.
Real life, IMHO means what we live and experience now, with its ups and downs, but has nothing to do with an imagined life after death.
The evidence is all around me. I do not need a god or faith to make it real.
So to be clear, I do not post in jest, but I do enjoy the humor in contradictions and hypocrisy.
May I assert with a fair amount of confidence, then, that no airborne spaghetti critter has yet become manifest in your life and experience, with the exception of your imagination? Intelligent design has been part of my life and experience from the start, having been demonstrated by the consistencies, causes, and effects that make for an intelligible universe, accompanied by a well-attested text explaining in simple terms where we came from and where we are going. For some reason Spaghetti critters do not enjoy the same amount of confidence, with the exception of my imagination. I would like for you to produce one person who seriously believes in such an entity.
