In all fairness, disregarding whether or not aliens actually account for pretty much every historical event that ever happened, Ancient Aliens is still a pretty damn cool show, if only because aliens = awesome.

I wouldn't say the first, but at least the first one (on NS) that doesn't spend there lives reading their respective holy book (Which doesn't actually seem that bad)

You still need to prove that you CAN adequately defend your faith.

True, I would put "Read Koran" on my to do list, but I'm actually too busy. Even though I don't think it's true, at least I could read it to learn more about Islam, and to read it as an entertaining story, like how people read Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Norse legends.

Perhaps he just uses "it's faith" as an answer to everything.
I know Catholics use it as an excuse for believing in literal transubstantiation, despite the wine not tasting of blood or contain haemoglobin or blood plasma, the bread not tasting of flesh, neither looking like what they should, and lacking the DNA of Iesus Christus.

I was raised as a Roman Catholic but the rest of my family is Born Again. My father was a trouble maker as a young adult but when he met a friend of his who was Born Again, he converted and years after my mother did the same and so did my sister but I don't want to converted because I don't see any reason to plus my father doesn't really care if I convert or not, he told me that if I don't want to then I don't have to.
