The sheer ignorance of the above statement is staggering.

It is clear to me that the chasm between the belief systems is too large to be spanned.

At least now you know why you can't have a civil conversation with the other side on the issue:  your side can't stay civil when you see a statement you disagree with.

I think Tim's point is simple enough.  It's impossible to argue a point when the basic underlying facts are in dispute.

It's not the underlying facts that are in dispute; it's the underlying philosophy.

No, you also dispute demonstrable facts, which makes a common discussion plane impossible.
