Which is useless. Again, it is an appeal to ignorance--and retreat into continued ignorance.
Nothing for Gentlemen.
Of course, I have my own "NOMA" regarding my current position as Personal Oiler of Mila Kunis--you should not question it: it is special and not to be examined.

I do not agree with it myself, but I can see how it can be a useful compromise in a world were religion has such a huge influence. More useful for religion than for science though, and I do see your point that a far more honest approach would be to just face the fact that most religious ideas are flatly contradicted if rationally examined, or at least found to be completely unsupported.
I also agree that no-one should examine your position on Mila Kunis and a large bottle of baby oil. Ever.
