[quote]Other people in this thread did a better job defending my stance then I could already, so I don't feel the need to do so myself.[/quote]Then after reading other peoples' responses, you should be able to defend your stance yourself with no problem.
[quote]Also, the poll speaks for itself anyway.[/quote]What is that supposed to mean?

The option 'Yes, science and religion are compatible' is winning the poll, and most of the users on the site are atheists, so even most atheists believe they are compatible.
-
Again, how is the results of the poll relevant? [quote]and most of the users on the site are atheists, so even most atheists believe they are compatible.[/quote]First of all, you'll need a citation to that claim, and you shouldn't cite a poll where a minority is more likely to vote and be outspoken (a minority in society, not the site). And second of all, you can't prove that most atheists believe they are compatible unless every person who votes in the poll is irreligious. If 90% of Christians and 30% of atheists (random percentages) vote yes and those percentages together make up the majority, that doesn't mean a majority of atheists believe they are compatible.

Don't ask me for a citation, you know very well that this site is predominantly atheist.
-
No, I don't. And I'll ask again, how are the results relevant?
-
I already told you.
-
No you haven't. I'll explicitly ask you: Do you believe that results of the poll help justify what you believe?
-
No, I do not need justification from such a source. I already know the answer.
-
[quote]Also, the poll speaks for itself anyway.[/quote]THEN WHAT DID THIS MEAN AND WHY DID YOU POST THIS.
-
Because the poll goes against your opinion. Most of the people in this thread didn't agree with you.
-
And, again, why does that even matter?

I know, I just wanted him to admit it himself. He has tried to call people out on ad populums before (and failed).
