Your describing the actions of it not the being itself. How can I verify it existence without information on the being itself. Even I prove without a shadow of doubt that a tooth is being replaced by quarter for some kids when the kid's teeth fall out, that doesn't prove the being exist because of it.It's a being that takes the teeth of some children, replacing it with a reward of some kind (i.e. a quarter) when the child's teeth fall out.
Going by interviews with many children, there are lots of instances of the Tooth Fairy leaving them a reward in exchange for their tooth. While there are no direct observations of this being (it apparently waits until they are asleep), there are many cases of personal experience with it.

Same difficulty, the existence of the tooth being replace with coins only prove that the tooth is replaced with coins, it doesn't prove anything considering the existence or non-existence of the fairy.I didn't ask you to prove the being exists. I asked you to prove it does not exist.
I believe we are cosmically significant and that God created ex nihilo the heavens and the earth before he created man. He created man from the "clay"...trace it back to first causes then maybe he created us from the same stuff that he made the stars from. So maybe we are created from star dust.
Why must.. is the wrong question. We are significant because the same God that inspired the scriptures tells us that we are. being made in his image saved by the sacrifice of Gods son and having a future potential in God all contributes to this impression of significance and worth. And yes this applies to homosexuals as much as to hetrosexuals.
Our consciousness would not be a valid reason for our significance as the little we do know has merely told us that we know next to nothing beyond the tiny bubble of space that holds our star , home and planetary neighbours.
Regardless, it has nothing to do with the point that I made on the concept of burden of proof, even you are right about the "can't prove a negative", that doesn't make it go away.

So in your view the popular mandate is what drives the discussion and implementation is a matter of simply doing it in a measured way.
Your only moral limits are in effect consent and whether or not we have entrenched the particular immorality of our age into law yet- good grief!
The historicity of the Bible is pretty much demonstrated but this would take a whole new OP. I refer you to my previous comments about the fall of Sodom and Gomorrah which your above words indicate you have still not understood.
Morality is not the will of the people nor is it laws that have ignored Gods will. This is still wrong and those that approve it are cursed by that approval.
1) Everyone must follow the current marriage laws. Heterosexuals cannot enter into SSM. It is a law for everybody.
2) And society also does not want to witness homosexual "marriage".
Homosexual acts are inhuman.
The sample sizes are small , do not allow or account for the exceptions.
The scans are not detailed enough to interpret the evidence properly.
Adultary and murder cause harm to others. Homosexuality does not. It just annoys some Christians when people do not follow their rules any more. But they are hypocrits it seems. Where are the medical therapies to cure atheism? Where is pressure to prevent people with tattoos from marrying? Where is the war on shellfish?That does not alter their moral requirement to resist it anymore than some one genetically predisposed to adultery or murder would be expected to master themselves.
The teaching of the church is clear the New Testament does condemn lesbian acts also as a symptom of extreme spiritual degeneration (Romans 1).
I think you miss the point, that I said that people use that as a cop-out of the burden of proof, irregardless if it's true or not. Which I read that way due to reasonable experience. It still exist and it doesn't care that the task is impossible. That the point I was making. Now if you don't intend it as a cop-out, than by all means lets drop this.I didn't intend on us to go on quite a tangent. I wasn't referring to burden of proof. As was pointed out, proving a negative is impossible. No matter how much falsification you claim, it never proves the negative.
If I say, "Prove Vampires don't exist". We all know what vampires are described as. You can scour the earth in search of them. But you not finding any doesn't prove they don't exist. It merely proves you didn't succeed in finding out whether they exist or not.
Disagree, the problem is that the claim didn't give any exact description of the fairy itself, so how we suppose to prove/disprove it with the lack information provided by the claim itself? You can't do it. The methods doesn't not prove anything considering existence, only the existence of the method itself.That's absolutely correct. However, while there is a methodology you can use to get from here to proving the tooth fairy exists, there is no methodology you can use to prove it absolutely does not. All you can do is rule it out specific instances where it was claimed the tooth fairy was taking part.
In short, the most you are justified in saying is that it's extremely unlikely the Tooth Fairy exists.
So you don't care if they true or not, as long they damage his political creditability?Nick Clegg affirms gay marriage and he's an atheist to boot. What's not to like about the man!? Please pray this man out of office.

Whether or not the above accusations are credible is another question but if they contribute to his political demise then I guess they hold some value.

Wow your priorities are messed up.
The bible allows for the execution of homosexuals who have practiced gay sex. It also teaches us to be slow to punish a sinner who stands a reasonable chance of being brought to repentance and Gods mercy. This has fed into Christian interpretations of law and governance and explains the tolerance that atheists and other minority groups have enjoyed in most Christian countries over the last 200 years. But at the end of the day there will be an accounting and God will pop all the atheists bubbles of self delusion.
The statistics show only a decline in cultural Christianity not the true church. From your point of view Christians may increasingly come to seem like a starker choice than you are currently prepared to make. When the consequences of godlessness become clear to you I pray you will change your mind. But that cannot happen until your illusions and indeed that of many Christians presentations of the gospel are debunked. As while the love of most grows cold that of God endures forever and He is your only chance to be saved from your sins.
Why isn't our consciousness a valid reason to impart significance? As far as we are able to tell, we are the part of the cosmos that is conscious - the conscious cosmos. I'd say that alone is pretty significant. That one part of the cosmos is organised in such a way as to be able to contemplate the entire cosmos, including itself, is pretty amazing.
