Having an argument, help me refute.
Post Body

I'm having a discussion with someone who is arguing for more influence of Christianity into our government.

He claims evidence of the super natural is all around us and the bible should be chosen as the law-giver because it is the more "logical, historical, verifiable, and prophetic choice".

I asked him to define verifiable and give examples of the super natural and here's his response.

"What, you don't want to play on the page you shared so my friends can chime in? I'm a very busy man.

You now want an example of supernatural evidence that has been admitted in court.

The law itself assumes a supreme moral law-giver to whom we defer authority. It’s what gives the law validity. I mean, do you really care what the majority puts into code if you’re convinced the majorities’ idea of right and wrong doesn’t jibe with your particular situation?

On a regular basis, courts admit evidence of supernatural evil.

Our laws are, and have always been, written by bodies who appeal to God together for wisdom.

We place our hand on The Bible when take an oath to God. That’s the same book on which the law is based.

All these things are evidence of God and the evidence is admitted in court. So, if you feel God is supernatural, there's your answer.

Do you think our lives are supernatural or the result of a causeless big bang? I haven't bothered referencing my book because you obviously view it as a fairy tale. But, the science books you base your philosophy on are severely limited. Even the foundation, mathematics, is flawed."
