Dechristo Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Oh great. The super ignorant will now blow their beleifs about Christianity out the blow hole. You, yourself, are not exempt from this charge. There are so many reasons to beleive and not beleive in God. Basing it on the actions/beleifs of humans you will never meet and know almost nothing about is pretty unscientific. Just keep pretending everything can be explained by science and or logic and you are sadly limiting yourself. It is not just Christianity but Buddism, Hinduism, blah, blah, blah,... All have their own "Mythologies" writtten in different times in poetic grammatical structures to preserve a tradition of knowledge blended with wisdom. That we have built a new foundation for knowledge through science does not ensure that wisdom will follow. Show me wisdom in science. Show me the wisdom in not reading one of the oldest collections of human stories anywhere. I do not think you can do either. But that is not a proof that God exists nor a refutation of science. It is simply to point out that argueing over the value of the Bible or science is missing the point. Why do we love? Why do we feel? Why do we talk about it? How do we relate to the world around us as a society? So forth and so on. Science does not cover this. Literature does. How can we sustain more people on a small planet? How can we stop the population explosion? How can we stop AIDS? Cancer? etc. That is the realm of science. Those who espouse a belief in science, only, rely on a personal faith more than they are aware - and the reciprocal is true, of course, of Faithful fanatics. Both, are childish. But, there is little that is more childish than a belief in a God, solely, as an anthropomorphic static entity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvashtarkatena Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) How can we sustain more people on a small planet? How can we stop the population explosion? How can we stop AIDS? Cancer? etc. That is the realm of science. These fall more into the realm of politics, and thus myth, than science. "'i' before 'e', except after 'c', as in 'beliefs'...that is the realm of science. Edited September 19, 2008 by tvashtarkatena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
