I have decided I want a motorcycle.

When everyone can fly, owning a personal transportation device becomes a matter of luxury, not necessity. The more elaborate and impractical the device is, the more status it confers. Considering you have to leave Gensokyo to get a tank of gas, anything with an internal combustion engine is strictly for nobility.

Last time we had one I tried to turn it into Touhous on motorcycles. Pic related, I still think that's a good use for this thread.

The experiment to determine if a God does indeed exist is underway (It's "Wait and see"). In the meantime, we've got reason, and a wide variety of other experiments that can be preformed in specific time periods. What those experiments reveal can be accepted as true, until such time as later experiments show it to be false. Repetition is good- Operating on the result of a single experiment is reckless. One who chooses to ignore what experimental evidence points to is foolish.

As for the bulk of the knowledge that we don't know, well, we simply don't know it yet. Thank goodness we have methods that allow us to go about fixing that.

God may or may not exist, but when the teachings of faith collide with the demonstrated truth of reality, as determined by scientific means, faith must fall back as it can not be true. This does not abrogate all faith instantly, only so much of it that can be demonstrated to be wrong. If a test cannot be conceived to either confirm or deny an aspect of faith, then you are free to believe what you will.

Just be aware that the domain of faith is not limited to only one "truth". There are as many ways of believing as there are people, though most tend to band together and form religions. While these religions try, none can claim to be the true "truth", because they all use the same murky region of the untestable as their domain. They start with the premise that they are correct, when that is actually what they need to prove, and point to this premise as proof. Such circular reasoning is left endlessly chasing its tail, while actual reasoning gnaws away at the edges.

Also, I think this should be a touhou thread. Let's discuss Remilia's persecution at the hands of the Hakurei shrine.
