Oh really?
Remind me to tell you one day about some of my Clinton commentary (though I suspect that lurid descriptions of bizarre acts involving farm animals and certain vegetables and fruits would be less than welcome on these boards...).

Oh, but you did make a claim.
No, you said: "The day you can disprove the spirit is the day you can claim this." It is YOU who are claiming the existence of a spirit, not me. Therefore, it is up to you to prove the existence of a spirit.
I claim that humans are biological robots. I have already proven this by citing the total lack of any empirical evidence for anything but physical constituents of humans. Since there is no empirical evidence for a soul or anything spiritual, what are we left with? The natural material world. It is no problem for me to prove the natural. It is a BIG problem for you to scientifically prove the supernatural. And, since all life exists as material entities in a material world, humans are biological robots, as are all living things.
As for spirits, the burden of proof is still on you!

That way, all the people that know the truth at TOL could be antiseptic.
That really cracked me up w.a.
Since Septic's philosophy seems to be bound by the laws of the Evolutionism faith and religion, I feel sorry for the guy. He thinks all that there is is eighty-or-so bio-robotic years to roam the planet earth. If I put my faith in that empty cup, I would probably have drank the Koolaid a long time ago. But there is hope for him. The Christians who are best at apologetics are usually former-skeptics. At least, I have concluded that after much observation, but we all know how limited human observation is, even with Ph.D. for glasses.

Skeptic;
No, you said: "The day you can disprove the spirit is the day you can claim this." It is YOU who are claiming the existence of a spirit, not me. Therefore, it is up to you to prove the existence of a spirit.
Billy;
OK, as much as I hate to do it, I'm gonna have to agree with Skeptic here. Logic dictates that it is impossible to prove a negative, therefore, Skeptic could never be able to prove that the Spirit doesn't exist.
OK, so as it stands now:
