Chapter Two
Intro Theme: Fireflight | Sucker Punch - You Gave Me a Promise
Holly and Sam both joined the Discord video call. Round two. Holly thought. "We meet again," Holly started. Sam nodded.
"We do," Sam said.
"I have a question, Sam."
"Sure ask."
"Is there any piece of evidence that could be provided to cause you to abandon your faith?"
"No," Sam replied quickly.
"What? Why? Any belief that is unfalsifiable is worth less than nothing."
"How could you say that?" Sam said dismayed. "That hurt my feelings." She was starting to tear up.
"I am. . .sorry," Holly said. "I was harsh I'm sorry."
"Well, okay," Sam said wiping away tears, I have a question for you then."
"Shoot," Holly said.
"If God didn't create the world, who or what did?"
"The natural laws and a very great deal of time." Holly replied smiling.
"Fair enough," Sam said.
"My turn. If praying actually worked, shouldn't you just have to do it once?"
"Yes and no. Yes, it's okay to repeat a prayer. But no that we shouldn't expect God to answer it if we keep on repeating or begging for that thing to happen."
"My turn, now Holly. Do you hate God?"
"Do you hate the tooth fairy?"
"No of course not, the tooth fairy isn't real!" Sam replied. Then her face melted realized what Holly was implying. "Hey! That-"
"What? I didn't say anything! You did it all for me! I win this round! I need to go to bed!"
"Holly we're not done yet!"
"Sorry, you're breaking up!" She left the call and closed her Chromebook. She chuckled to herself. Sam was also laughing. Holly, you're going down.
