Lily,
You are the one mixing apples and oranges. I have already told you that I don't think science has disproved god; only that science has disproved the personal god. You asked me for my reasons to think that god doesn't exist; by that, I assume you meant the personal god, because I already told you I am not discounting for purposes of this discussion the possibility of a prime mover. And I gave you at least some of those reasons.
My original point on this thread was that the discussion of the prime mover is fairly irrelevant. I don't particularly want to go back into why I think so.
As far as otherwise intelligent people accepting the truth of transubstantiation, I am fully aware that this happens regularly. I have friends who are excellent trial lawyers, educated in the problems of evidence, who nevertheless believe this and other patent nonsense. I am sure psychologists could write volumes on the subject, and probably have.
