But they caught him as he was exiting the safe room. The thief tells the judge that a MAGICAL FLYING PIG gave him the money. The Judge asks him for proof of the magical pig, or at least circumstantial evidence. The thief tells the judge to have blind faith in him. Will the judge belive the thief? Religious Leader: Grrrr... ok forget the act of creation. Now tell me, what existed before the big bang? Student: Nothing. If time did not exist, then there is no question of BEFORE.

boy... well tried. Now which religious leader are you referring to? Its a completely one-sided story that is being force fed by you to make your point. Religion cannot be studied with the yardstick of science/logic. Although several deductions can be made for making convincing arguments. Your 'religious leader' here is depicted as a weakling and that's the premise of your denouncing religion! Your choice nevertheless. As long as you are comfortable with it
