As a sidenote.... lately you seem to fall back quite frequently on the attitude that says "I don't care that I'm incorrect", especially when face with pointes that tend to be a bit more challenging. Just like you did here again.
I mean, they've basically abandoned any argument that their beliefs are justified and are hedging their bets on the fact that sometimes - rarely, but not never - claims that we just pull out of our butts wind up being coincidentally true even though we had no reason to presume that they would be.
Why do you still argue when it is obvious that you do indeed agree?
One of the questions that arouse from the OP as a side thread was "is belief in the supernatural rational?". You all agree that the answer is "no".
I think that is a great outcome of a debate when there is a conclusion and agreement.
You, @TagliatelliMonster and @9-10ths_Penguin, are now shifting the goalposts to a value judgement "is irrationality a bad thing?" instead of first acknowledging the found common ground.
I can appreciate @Conscious thoughts position which is so rare among believers. He is humble enough to concede that his belief isn't rational and wise enough to know that that is only a problem if one values rationality above spirituality.
