Yep, I'd give a similar answer. Not only is there a monumental lack
of scientific evidence for the existence of god(s): there is no
logic in believing in god(s) simply because he/she/it/they has/have
been 'revealed' in 'divine' scripture. For instance, the existence
of god cannot be proved by referring to the Bible. The Bible does
not provide evidence for the existence of god; it assumes the
existence of god. In other words, the Bible does not 'reveal' the
existence of the Christian god. Rather, it assumes the existence of
the Christian god from the outset, meaning that a conscious belief
in god is necessary prior to reading the scripture (circular logic).
Therefore, the Bible does nothing to prove the existence of god - it
merely reinforces belief in god in those minds which have not
addressed the fundamental philosophical and scientific problems
associated with the concept of a deity.

What are the 'Brights' all about? I had a brief look at their
website a few days ago, and I couldn't quite understand whether they
are intending to be a serious organisation. I guess they are, but it
just seems rather strange. I'll have to investigate more before I
think about joining!
