It really depends on the placement of the zippers and the style vs . What you want to replace them with . when you say decorative , do you mean that they serve no function at all , or are they working zippers ? Any chance you could provide a link to the skirt or something similar ? <| sep |> If the christian god were portrayed as a character that played pranks and liked to trick people , I might not be 100 % sure it doesn ' t exist . The problem is that the christian god is portrayed as a being who proclaims itself to be real , and seeks out humans to worship it . This simply is not true . Flat out , 100 % not true . I can personally attest that the christian god isn ' t seeking me out , and it isn ' t trying to get me to love it . If I tell you that a chameleon is hiding in the leaves of a tree above you , and you don ' t see it , you have an intuitive reason to either believe or not believe in my statement based on what you know about chameleons and their ability to hide . Various factors can contribute to your belief of this chameleon or lack of belief . However , if I tell you that there is a brontosaurus sitting in the same tree , and not only that , this brontosaurus wants to be friends with you , if you don ' t 100 % not believe me , there is seriously something wrong with your judgement . Facts matter when assessing the veracity of a claim .
