All I was saying is there's no evidence that I know of regarding flying elephants, except maybe for this thread where you seemed to completely make it up out of nowhere.

I don't know why you keep going on about me "wanting" to believe something. I don't want or need to believe anything. Things either exist or they don't, and a lot of things that might exist in this Universe you and I will never know about. You're the one who seems so stuck on "disproving" things that might exist, instead of simply saying "Hmm, I honestly have no clue if they exist or not, I'm just one single human trying to make sense of this existence like everyone else."

You need to step outside of your know-it-all mindset and realize that you don't really "know" anything, none of us do.
Ok, this is getting stupid. I'm gonna try one more time to explain things to you. The last time. After that i give up.
I'm not claiming i know everything. Or how the universe works. I'm very open minded to the fact that there could be tons of "things" we can't see (yet). But right now there is absolutely no reason to believe that the chances or there being angels are bigger than the chances of there being flying elephants. Again: can't you really not see what i'm trying to say? You say there is evidence of there being angels. No, there is not. Absolutely no evidence whatsoever. There just tons of believers (like you) who want to see angels and then obviously claim they did. Why no flying elephants? Because nobody cares about flying elephants. It's that simple. If flying elephants could heal, come from heaven, were sent by God, warn people or whatever idiot story you can think of then all those people would instead see flying elephants and you, as a believer, would claim there is evidence that flying elephants exists. This has everything to do with religion and wanting to believe and nothing to do with critical thinking (which for some reason you seem to think you're doing).
If you still don't understand how wrong you are then so be it. Nothing i can do about it obviously. Maybe you should smoke less drugs.
